There are so many good things to find in Proverbs it is a wonder. For today, I want to look at what it says about finances. The first piece of advice is to not be a cosigner for anyone. The advice is to do nearly whatever you must to get yourself out of the deal. It likens one who is in this position to a gazelle running from a hunter. It reminds the person to work hard like the ant, without having to be spurred on to do its work. It warns those who are lazy about this that poverty will overtake them like a thief. Some would separate the warning about consigning and being lazy they go together well.
