You need to be mindful about your sense of entitlement. If you're careless with your money and want everything that your heart's desires regardless of whether you have the money, you could end up in financial ruins. It is important to note that the wise King Solomon, after experiencing everything that the world at that time could offer, realized his mistake and admitted: "Yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done and what I had toiled to achieve, everything was meaningless, a chasing after the wind; nothing was gained under the sun" (Ecclesiastes 2:11).
God gave all of us things to enjoy. Nothing wrong with enjoying these things if you have the means to do so. However, we need to be wise stewards of God's resources. Our purpose in life should not be limited to just pursuing wealth and material things, else we'll end up "chasing after the wind and gained nothing!"
