कबीर सो धन संचिये

कबीर सो धन संचिये, जो आगे को होए| सीस चढाये पोटली, ले जात न देख्या कोए||

Kabir says accumulate only as much wealth as would be of use later ;no one has been seen taking his pot (of wealth)with him(after death) on his head

Wealth will remain with you only till death.There is no point accumulating wealth that will not be of any use to us.So accumulation should be within limits with an eye on possible use in lifetime.One can also say that excess wealth earned should be spent suitably/given away according to Dharma rather than accumulated.Accumulation of wealth leads to delay in and prevention of its enjoyment by society.

The motivation behind creation of wealth should be its employment to earn and accumulate good karma rather than accumulation of wealth.Good Karmas is that wealth that needs to be accumulated as it would be of use later also, both in this life as well as in future lives.
