Proverbs 22:1 "A Good Name"

A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.

Does this not cut across the grain of our desires? We are often tempted to compromise our integrity for riches, our good name for a little gain.
How many men have sacrificed the loving favor of their wife and children on the altar of prosperity? In the end, when it is all to late, they realize the foolishness of their ways. To have a good name, a loving wife, honorable children, and the favor of close friends is true wealth.
