The wise endowed with virtue shine forth like a burning fire,
  gathering wealth as bees do honey and heaping it up like an ant hill.

  By dividing wealth into four parts, true friendships are bound; One
  part should be enjoyed; Two parts invested in business; And the fourth
  set aside against future misfortunes." - Singalovada Sutta
