Wealth as Trust
Whatever wealth one has should be seen as held in trust for beneficial use.
Jain laypeople with wealth view it as a trust to be used for supporting monastics, charity, and beneficial purposes - not as personal possession for indulgence or hoarding.
You are not the owner but the trustee of your wealth.
Trusteeship transforms relationship to wealth.

Money held in trust rather than owned. What you have is for use, and some of that use is other people.
