"�We can offer to those who wish to be free of idolatry [of money] is a consciousness of other�s needs, for if stewardship of any gift and talent is expressed, then the gates of abundance open and one is flooded with plenty. "

"consciousness of other�s needs", i like this term as typically I hear consciousness in relation to self and inner workings but to others needs opens the the junction of service to others.
In the US it takes about $2 million to be able to live off of for the rest of one's life. So after taxes, and helping friends out, it's more like $10 million is needed to support one through the rest of their life. I've had no problem focusing on that, because it can help others.
There's a Chinese I-Ching philosophy that says (On Hexagram 43):
If a man were to pile up riches for himself alone, without considering others,
he would certainly experience a collapse. For all gathering is followed by dispersion.
A superior man begins to distribute while he is accumulating.

Also the description of free will in there is amazing eg it being like the wind metaphor. Sorry maybe im a bit to attached to this transcript haha. Perhaps i need some balancing work on this excitement!
