We just don’t know, I think is the point of Solomon. Whether it is riches or poverty, he said they both end up in the same place. If we take it to the Judgement seat, then it is not going to be the condition of our lives, but the condition of our hearts. There is in the course of the apostle’s life where he “learns” to be content no matter what the circumstances. Discontentment is a disturbing sign of one who believes he deserves riches. What great blessing is there then when God gives us relief from the desires that keep us busy about many things. The disciples had it right when they said “Who then can be saved?” Realizing that we are all are as rich toward ourselves as God was toward Solomon. How hard it is to get to heaven. But then, what God uses to break a man can also be that thing which he uses to harden another. But such are the forturnes of the plagues that man brings upon himself.
