This month, I've been brainstorming with my group of Bible students on "Kingdom wealth". While many had always seen the concept of wealth from the perspective of money, there is more to wealth that the count of figures and numbers. In fact, there is the "Human" and relationship part that is very critical to one's position in amassing wealth. It is popularly said that "Health is wealth", yet many do neglect their health at their own loss as a deteriorating body cannot think and strategize well for business opportunities.

The motivation to sharing this thought in this post is remembering when I had a huge financial need and did put a call across a few of my friends requesting each to support me with at least $100. Only 2 out of the 9 persons reached was able to and actually did that promptly. I sat and asked myself how healthy is that web of "business friends" that can't raise that sum for my project  then. Sincerely, I discovered that I wasn't wealthy as a I thought. That became a challenge foe me to decide to  raise 20 millionaires (Naira) by the end of 2021. It was a hard decision to take but I knew it was something I had to do if I must  sustain whatever I think I had. **I had come to the realization that my network is  directly proportional to my net worth?**

There is something "big" about numbers, not of products or currencies but of people of like minds, who are willing to pool their resources in a particular direction for their common or individual good. This was actually what brought about Thrift savings (_esusu_ in my local dialect), which involves a specific number of people contributing a certain amount of money at a regular intervals and giving it to each of their members successively.

**We win with numbers and that's the essence of  Social Media**. Bringing people together from diverse race, vaying wealth of experience, unique ideas and other diversities has been one power that socialmedia has exerted on the human race. On this blockchain, I've met people from the US, carlifornia, Venesuela, London, China and many other nations I would never touch its sand. More importantly is the fact that we have the privilege of sharing ideas, concepts and even finances together.

**Wealth is Created in Circles and Tribes.** One of my business mentors would emphasize that in our classes _"Wealth is Created in Circles and Tribes"_ There is the anti-humanity force that tries to cause a separation, but when that is well countered by connected (not minding locaiton), then wealth can be created. I remember that from April to Ju;ly 2020, I had stayed indoors all days, yet I was making money on Hive blockchain because I could connect with the internet with a crypto tribe.


**A true Network of peole is Power** When you search around and you discover that every money would only carry value when the is a movement from one holder to another. Could be from buyer to seller, vendor to consumer and as we have on Hive blockchain, from content-curator to content-creator. If all of us were creators, then no wealth would be generated here. Also, if all of us were curators, then there would be no way to mine the tokens. The circle must be complete with the giver and the receiver at the other end.

The value of Hive and Hive-engine tokens are staying up and strong because there are users who are willing to receive (buy) Hive with other crypto or with fiat and power-up same. If one person does it, Hive won't be a tender. It takes more than one person who sees in a like perspective to accept Hive and Hive-engine tokens for it to gain value. It's amazing to see the Hive tribes grow on daily basis. Market capitalisation rising to tens and hundreds of millions of Dollars and more. This is just a product of the coperation of the people.

We need to seek the growth of our communities and tribes' members in numbers, for in that lies the wealth of our communities and tribes.
