Wealth Transfer.

Deuteronomy6:10-11

v10 So it shall be, when the LORD your God brings you into the land of which he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to give you large and beautiful cities which you did not build,

v11"houses full of all good things, which you did not fill, hewn out wells which you did not dig, vineyards and olive trees which you did not plant-when you have eaten and are full-

The context here was God warning the people against disobedience when they have attained the stage of financial independence.

But in the warning, there was God's promise of great wealth for His people, brought about by obedience(if you read the previous 9 verses), a wealth which has been stored up by the Canaanites who dwelled the land before the Israelites.

Obedience is the key to the wealth that God had others stored up for you. Like Abraham, I believe that the ram is climbing up on the other side of the hill when i am climbing on this one.

Hope its not too boring...
Maybe can share if i have a shot at offering next time.. haha..
