Lead like Joseph 2

Let Pharaoh do this, and let him appoint officers over the land, and take up the fifth part of the land of Egypt in the seven plenteous years. 

And let them gather all the food of those good years that come, and lay up corn under the hand of Pharaoh, and let them keep food in the cities. 

And that food shall be for store to the land against the seven years of famine, which shall be in the land of Egypt; that the land perish not through the famine.
Genesis 41:34‭-‬36 KJV

Saving in times of plenty (abundance) for times of scarcity is proven practice for nations, corporations and individuals. Everyone is encouraged to set aside a portion for other purposes.

Saving is not the end but saving to invest. Overcoming poverty involves knowledge about investments. You have to understand that there is no profitable get rich quick process because in the end you lose all that you might have gained. You might be back to the beginning if you try to look for shortcuts thereby losing a lot of valuable time.

Storing food requires expertise because you might lose all if you don't store properly. It is the same when investing. You stand the chance of losing if you do not have expertise in investments.

May God give you insight as he gave Joseph.
