Proverbs 23:5
Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.

Why stare at a soap bubble? It will quickly float away and disappear. You are not so foolish? If you desire, or plan, or work to be rich, you are foolishly trusting soap bubbles!

Solomon first condemned the folly of trying to be rich (Pr 23:4), then he gave a sober reason not to chase this foolish goal. Consider his loving lesson and be wise. Why will a man spend his life trying to capture something that is only an illusion? Human nature, the laws of economics, and God’s judgments will quickly and surely take riches away.
