Popular media personality, Reno Omokri, has stated that in as much as too much of everything is bad, so also is too much of being generous is bad.

As a result, he says, he is not in support of the proverb which says givers never lack.

According to him, if the giver does not set boundaries in his giving, he also becomes a beggar later.

He argues:

“Generosity is good.

But too much of everything is not good.

The proverb givers never lack is a lie.

As a giver, set boundaries, because takers dont have boundaries.

They take and take until there’s nothing left.

Then they will move on to the next fool to take from!

An unwise giver may end up as a beggar.

Scripture does not say giving is profitable.

It says wisdom is profitable-Ecclesiastes 10:10.

Giving without wisdom is unprofitable.

Many people will not remember the 10 times you gave.

But they will certainly remember that 1 time you could not give.”
