There is no poverty in a place of wealth

There is no poverty in a place of wealth

There is no insistence on saving small sums or being frugal where there is wealth. In places where large sums of money circulate, people do not pay attention to small amounts.

(“Rav Acha bar Yaakov said: There is no poverty in a place of wealth” - Shabbat 152b)

אֵין הַקְפָּדָה עַל שְׁמִירַת סְכוּמֵי כֶּסֶף קְטַנִּים וְחַסְכָנוּת בַּמָּקוֹם שֶׁל עֹשֶׁר. בְּמָקוֹם בּוֹ מִתְגַּלְגְּלִים סְכוּמֵי כֶּסֶף גְּדוֹלִים אֵין מַקְפִּידִים עַל חַסְכָנוּת שֶׁל סְכוּמֵי כֶּסֶף פְּעוּטִים.
