" Moreover the profit of the earth is for all: the king himself is served by the field . He that loveth silver shall not be satisfield with silver; nor he that loveth abundance with increase: this is also vanity. When goods increase, they are increased that eat them: and what good is there to the owners thereof, saving the beholding of them with their eyes? The sleep of a labouring man is sweet, whether he eat little or much: but the abundance of the rich will not suffer him to sleep.
There is a sore evil which I have seen under the sun, namely, riches kept for the owners thereof to their hurt. But those riches perish by evil travail: and he begetteth a son, and there is nothing in his hand. As he came forth of his mother's womb, naked shall he return to go as he came, and shall take nothing of his labour, which he may carry away in his hand. And this also is a sore evil, that in all points as he came, so shall he go: and what profit hath he that hath laboured for the wind? All his days also he eateth in darkness, and he hath much sorrow and wrath with his sickness." Ecclesiastes 5: 9-17,
"First, seeking wealth is an endless quest, because those who want to get rich never feel that they have enough. Second, if you get rich, you attract people who care nothing for you but just your money. Third, once you acquire much money, you can't do anything with it but look at it. Fourth, working people are not full of anxieties and they sleep well; the rich are awake at night worrying about their investments. Fifth, wealthy people live in a world of high stakes financial deals. They can lose their money in bad business deals just when they need the money for their families. In the world of finance, men put their families at risk. Sixth, at death you lose it all. You can't take it with you. Seventh, the quest for riches is hard and bitter, and days are spend in tedious and vexing work. It is far better to get by with fewer things and less money and be able to enjoy life."
You see we brought nothing into almighty God world and we will leave this earth with nothing but our souls, he even gave us that. Now we do own our souls and it will return to almighty God to be judged by Him. If you lived righteous on earth heaven will be your home, but if you serve the devil all your life hell you shall lift your eyes. "For what shall it profit a man if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?" Mark 8:36 Amen.
