  2. I think It means..
    When rich people are rich, then they don’t want to spend money or help other people because they think they are tired to collect the money and they don’t want to spend anymore.
    But the poor people are so tired from their life, and when they dream to have money, the first thought of their to help other people, because they are suffering from their life.

    I think this quot means generous people will never become rich because they spend alot of money to help other people because they like spend money. however, rich people usually do not like spend money because they think when they spend alot of money the money will finish and they will become poor.

  10. This proverb says:
    Generous peolpe are always willing to use thier money to help other people, they don't think to save more money for themselves. On the other hand, People who only think about making and saving money for themselves become more rich.

  11. I think that's mean:
    the rich people are two types, one of them they looking all the time to help poor people with their money without looking for benefits, but the other type are looking for collecting money as hard as they can. and i think his point is the money it can disappear suddenly and any time but the love inside every one that you helped can't gone in one moment.
