LAZINESS
Pr 12:11 He who works his land will have abundant food, but he who chases fantasies lacks judgment.
Seems, among other things, that's a warning against playing the lottery, or more generally against all kinds of get-rich-quick or easy-money schemes.
Pr 20:21 An inheritance quickly gained at the beginning will not be blessed at the end.
Pr 21:5 The plans of the diligent lead to profit as surely as haste leads to poverty.
Pr 12:27 The lazy man does not roast his game, but the diligent man prizes his possessions.
Pr 26:15 The sluggard buries his hand in the dish; he is too lazy to bring it back to his mouth.
There are those who gather the resources for some business venture, but then are too lazy to actually utilize them.
Pr 14:23 All hard work brings a profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty.
This also is a warning to those who hope to earn easy money just by talking - without hard work.
Pr 13:11 Dishonest money dwindles away, but he who gathers money little by little makes it grow.
Seems the Bible advocates more of a get-rich-slowly scheme.
