Proverbs 13:11 “Dishonest money dwindles away, but he who gathers money little by little makes it grow” Averages can be meaningless, but they can also be interesting.  Well over half of American families have no savings and live from paycheck to paycheck.  God never says what % of your income you should save, but He does say to save and you will develop a financial safety net.  Common advise suggests having 6 months to a year of expenses saved.  That safety net will not happen instantly, but little by little it certainly will.  Over 2300 Bible passages talk about money and 11 0f Jesus’ 39 parables refer to finances while teaching other important lessons.
