I heard recently at a conference that the average American believes "rich" is anyone who earns twice as much as they do. It doesn't matter if they earn $50K or $1M annually, the "rich" person is NOT them. At the same conference, our leader and author on this subject, said that even a group of people with over $5M is liquid expendable cash did not consider themselves "rich"! Our culture is sick.
If you earn over $30K annually, you are in the top 1% of the wealthiest people in the entire world! Check out globalrich.com. Put yourself in the system and see where you stand. Now ask yourself, "Am I rich?" The answer is yes. Now ask yourself, "Am I rich toward God?"
Don't miss the heart of this chapter. It is to encourage us to pursue the "life that is real". Life that is real is a life lived and spent on things that are eternal.
