Generosity Builds Wealth - Dave Rant

[@TikvahVered]

I can not believe Dave got any dislike for this. True philosophy. I love Dave, he speaks the truth.

[@caraccident5357]

Jesus said that He was The Way, The Truth, and The Light.

[@theopiner402]

It is well documented that a generous heart is more content.

[@shawnhill946]

Right. The generous soul, shall be made rich.

My dad always told me the more he gives the more he made. I think there is truth to what Dave is saying here.

[@monicagroce9369]

I’ll second this! My husband and I experience the same thing almost monthly. It’s amazing!

[@aarongiggers66]

I am not religious and I think Dave's rant on tithes and how I am wrong is great. Even when he's insulting me he is charismatic

[@mariacaba8736]

We've always tithed. My husband used to make 300/week, we tithed 30/wk. 10 years later we make almost 3000/wk, we tithe 300/wk. When you are obendient to God. He prospers you.

I believe in tithing to my church too. Be a wise man that budgets and responsible. But dont be a fool that throws it away. Dont waste money. Help the needy poor.🌝🌞🤔😇😊

[@xo7454]

I remember Dave saying he tips big because he can! Now I automatically tip 20% minimum. I don't go to Starbucks because I don't like their coffee and they charge a lot. But today, a homeless approached me and asked for money for food. I was going to give him $5, but realized you can't buy anything for $5 nowadays. So I took him to Starbucks and he got 2 sandwiches, a bottle of chocolate milk and a bottle of juice. I felt good afterwards, when he told me "God bless you!". His name is Mico and I felt like he's a sign from my guardian angel Michael.

[@flowerbin2425]

I give and I have bad people hurt me because of it. I would really like to keep giving but I don't want to continually taken advantage of. Sometimes I feel stupid.

[@granitemoss1451]

Yes, when you are a giver, sometimes evil people will take advantage of that. Don't let it stop you from being generous- just choose carefully who will receive your generosity.

real leaders are in short supply in today's society...the selfish ones seem to get into "leadership" roles

[@vickieclark5931]

100% agreed. In my company there may be about 1% that are real leaders. 99% of them got into management position cause they know the right people or are blood related to someone in upper management. Work ethic and generosity does not play a role in getting a higher position, at least not in most companies.

[@Jonerod]

You should give according to your needs and also according to your faith. So there’s a line in between that every person can meet, and everyone knows what that amount is.

[@mattmason7554]

Not religious, but fell the same. Be grateful. Share.

[@xmochix604]

We have been tithing off gross for over 10 years. God has done nothing but increased our wealth. We are only in our 30s and have six figures in savings. Our retirement account also have another 6 figures. Generosity truly does build wealth and keeps us content! And we have a dream home too. :)

[@davidooch]

Just wondering if one should tithe before taxes or after?

[@nursepaulakay]

I am asking for thoughts on this very subject. I believe Dave is 100% correct on this. But I feel a little torn on exactly WHAT to tithe from. Obviously, the first 10% of our income, but what about other things? Example: someone blesses you with $200 "just because" - should we pay tithes on that amount? That leads me to another question, if I get $50 for my birthday, should we tithe from that too? I LOVE GIVING! I always have! It may sound as if I'm making it a chore, but that's not my purpose. My purpose is this: despite our generosity, we've lived irresponsibly with the rest of our money, thus we have debt. Just wondering what others thoughts and feelings are on this subject. Thanks!

[@TalksWithYeisie]

Paula Kay I tithe from everything I get which is what the Word of God states. It is a blessing to give.

[@droptozro]

Giving is great and this belief is backed up by even atheistic people---the fact that giving gives returns even if not necessarily money. But the tithe is not for your local church. Completely disagree with this misuse of the Bible. God never said build huge buildings with large amounts of debt to entertain people(which is what it is most of the time today) and take tithes of money(it was food and animals originally, Dave knows this) to pay the bills. Pastors may request money to help with needs. But needs are basic... food, water, clothing and shelter possibly.

[@drb4074]

If you don't agree with what YOUR church is doing with their funds, then perhaps you should get involved or find a different church? Tithing is about you giving to the church. If you actually believe in God, then you'd know that he doesn't need your money.

[@droptozro]

D rB​ I don't have a church. And no, that's not what tithing is for... Tithing was essentially a tax on the people of Israel to support the Levite tribe who had no inheritance and ran temple services 24/7. It was food and animals, not monetary income. Dave even knows and admits this yet still falsely injects that it now is income which should go to a local church building. You won't find any Bible verse that says the tithe should go support your local church building.. Guarantee you.

[@cooltkll]

But the tithe is not for your local church.................where is the scripture that tells a christian to tithe.....the bible tells christians to give as they prosper......so where shall the money go to if not the local church????

[@aurorinezori9876]

If we are not into a church, should the tithe be replaced by donations?

[@excaliber009]

That would seem reasonable. Figure out what organizations are making a positive difference in the world and contribute to them.

[@injapan33]

That's what I do. I don't attend church, but I think giving is important. Find a cause you think is important, research organizations in that area, visit personally if you can, and start giving :)

[@aurorinezori9876]

Thank you! We are debt free at the end of August, yeah :))!!!

[@Lanaysbraids]

So do you start giving even if your still in debt in don’t have emergency fund like should that be the first thing before anything or after fact ?

[@Garett30]

I would do your emergency fund and debt first. The way I see it is you have to take care of your self before you start taking care of other people other wise you won’t survive.

Of course gross or before tax. No other way of seeing it, really. In my opinion, tax is just another form of obligated offering to the public.

Or....You are able to be financially generous when you are already wealthy....that helps...

[@SparksandBubbles]

I couldn't believe when his daughter said in her budget 101 video to give 10pct to the church and then live on $140 grocery budget a month with a straight face.

[@santoniop5618]

His daughter was pretty off on that food example but the idea of the budget was good. Also you said it's easy to give 10% when you're wealth but if wont give $1 out of $10 you're fooling yourself if you think you'll give $10,000 out of $100,000

You sure about that. Im generous to the point of almost being homeless. Do i get the same generosity? How can generosity build wealth when the majority are selfish power hungry individuals

[@alexarnold3117]

Giving isn’t about receiving generosity in return for yours. Generous people give with no expectation of return but that’s what makes it so special. Good things happen to good people it may not seem that way but it will always work itself out don’t change your character because of the “selfish power hungry individuals” but continue to bless everyone and with that, one day you may change their outlook on life to inspire them to change someone else’s.

10% to your church? I'm not a religious person so to me that sounds silly. Why can't you just pray at home?

[@ikeandlinz]

Because Christianity is based on giving and serving others. Just "praying at home" isn't enough to solve the world's problems. We have so much & should be smart enough with our time & money that we have the funds to help those who struggle.

[@cyclonesboone4620]

+Lindsay Ashton People struggle because of their own stupidity

[@cyclonesboone4620]

+Lindsay Ashton I don't care. I am selfish and proud of it.

[@Kojow7]

According to 1 Corinthians 12:12-31 (which I recommend that you read) it talks about the body of believers. Each person has their own gifts and needs to come together with others to share their gifts in the body. Without each other we are weak. With each other we can use our strengths to support others in the areas they are weaker in. When we walk in unity like this we are like a well-oiled machine and can do a lot more to serve each other and our communities. The 10% not only goes to support the bills of the church building but also goes to help the poor, needy, those in need of council, and to share the love of God with others.

[@maryyellen]

+Lindsay Ashton you are doing good & bringing goodness into the world. When we bless others, we are blessed immensely.

10 percent to a church? Depends on the church. If say my pastor was Joel olsteen I would have a hard time doing that. If your pastor is worth millions maybe tithing makes no sense.

[@josephricci6256]

BUT IS IT TEN PERCENT NET OR GROSS?

[@jmorris023]

I cannot find any empirical evidence or study that concludes that giving more of your income away results in greater prosperity.
