Don't follow Christ with the expectation of becoming rich. Many people who reject Christ do so because they were misled into believing that God would ensure their financial stability a misconception. The Scriptures teach that those who lose their lives for Christ will find them, while those who gain the world may lose their souls. While God does bless people, His grace is not uniform; it manifests differently for each individual. Many disciples lost their worldly possessions while serving. Remember, those who preach the true gospel of Christ His death, resurrection, and the victory over death will face persecution. If Christ Himself was persecuted, His followers should expect the same. – Christen KuikouaRate it:

It is the duty of those serving the people in public place closely to limit public expenditures to the actual needs of the government economically administered, because this bounds the right of the government to extract tribute from the earnings of labor or the property of the citizen, and because public extravagance begets extravagance among the people. We should never be ashamed of the simplicity and prudential economies which are best suited to the operation of a republican form of government and most compatible with the mission of the American people. Those who are selected for a limited time to manage public affairs are still of the people, and may do much by their example to encourage, consistently with the dignity of their official functions, that plain way of life which among their fellow-citizens aids integrity and promotes thrift and prosperity. – Grover ClevelandRate it:
