Your assignment is to think about the things we have discussed regarding the purpose of wealth in our lives. The world has a different perspective on wealth—generally an incorrect perspective. To become truly wealthy, we must first have a correct perspective and understand the key principles for understanding and using wealth wisely. The scriptures state: “Behold, he that hath eternal life is rich” (D&C 6:7). This is the true kind of wealth. Think about what is necessary to have this correct perspective on wealth.

For your assignment, please read and discuss the following three important chapters that help us with our perspective on wealth and our understanding of its key principles. Read 1Timothy 6, Jacob 2, and D&C 6. If you go to http://scriptures.lds.org/ or www.lds.org you can read these chapters online.
