Proverbs 21:17 (NIV)

He who loves pleasure will become poor;

whoever loves wine and oil will never be rich.

The main teaching:

He who loves pleasure will become poor;

The illustration:

whoever loves wine and oil will never be rich.

This illustration is from the days of King Solomon, nearly 3000 years ago.
How might we illustrate this truth today?

What can you expect, if you live for
the "party life"?
