In response to the OP. It depends on where and how a person who has this world's riches utilizes those riches. The pertinent scriptures have already been posted in this thread. Back in the 70s I was recently retired and 2 well known, very wealthy TV preachers were brought down by their own misdeeds. One of those who was in North Carolina, let's call him J.B., had gold fixtures in his bathrooms, when he was criticized for his opulent lifestyle, I heard him say, "I don't think God wants me living in a pile of trash." Jesus said, "The Son of man has not where to lay His head."
Then the other one whom I will call J.S. a reporter went to a seedy part of New Orleans and was interviewing independent female contractors. He showed one a picture of J.S. and asked her if she knew who he was. She said "Yes, he gets on T.V. cries and asks for more money so he can come down here and spend it on us." I don't think I will be seeking any advice from either one.
