One of the beautiful paradoxes it that those who renounce (eg Buddhist nuns and monks) and have no money, get given (from generous adherents to this way) so much and it seems that the longer they have been renounced, the more they are offered.
And because they get to see this paradox works, they trust more in the abundance and goodness of 'the Universe' ...
and there are a whole load of beautiful things to be gained - such as the sweetness of the feeling of gratitude.....
