What about the role of giving in personal finance?

[Fatunad]

That's why I'd like to hear opinions on how you think giving has affected you, your personal finances and your life in general.

Giving isnt bad but on the sense that everything should really be having some limitation because you cant just give out everything just because you do believe on something would be coming back or good karma.
We cant deny that people do tend to save up money as much as they could so that they would be having more and able to reach out something attaching into their goals.If you do see that you have
some decent amount then considering having some donations isnt a bad idea as long you are balancing everything then i dont see any possible reasons or problems that might
occur ahead.

for me, in fact, whether to take on debt or not to take on debt to increase wealth depends on each individual person. In my opinion, with confidence to choose one of them, it will give rise to a strong suggestion, so that it will give a positive aura and finally what we do will give maximum results. for example, there are people who have large companies and many assets, but they also have a lot of debt, and their assets continue to grow, this can be seen from their tax reports, even though there is a possibility of manipulation, but on the other hand there are people whose wealth never decreases even though they are not in debt, and the money is for charity, but their wealth is actually growing rapidly

This could be true because indeed when we only save money it will be limited to that but on the other hand when we provide assistance at least we have a relationship there but apart from all that of course we also have to look because not everyone can be helped and in my opinion give that help can be the right thing when the person being helped also does the right thing but on the other hand this will end up being the wrong direction when we help who really shouldn't be helped

I agree with what Dave Ramsey said that there's always a difference between generosity and just hoarding your money. It's also up to luck because you can never control what would happen to you, but I guess it's good karma. No matter what you believe in, it's always going to be a positive impact if you were to give out your blessings.

A personal view on it, I would like to be more generous and then prosper the right way. Not that because I have money, then I'm already prosperous. It's not always like that. If you are happy, you will be able to be successful because you have helped someone.

There is a proverb that states “It is not what you know. It is who you know” and I think this is an example of what you mention, being known as a generous person opens many doors and it get you to approach people that otherwise would have been inaccessible for you, this helps you to create a wide social network which is invaluable if you want to achieve success, so even if you need some money to do that the money spent is nothing compared to what you can get out of it.

Inner happiness and contentment is not always brought by money. You will find your life more satisfying if you will make a difference to the lives of some people. You can't bring any wealth when you die, so why not make the most out of it and use it accordingly? Once you become generous to others, you will find out that your life is more meaningful if you touch somebody's life. Don't expect anything in return. Because that is not true giving if you are waiting for something to come up.
