1 Peter 1:3-4 - "He has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you."
We have an inheritance waiting for us, a treasure gathered where moth and rust do not destroy. That should change our perpective on the treasures of this earth. They are fleeting. They come and go. But we can use the treaures of this earth for the work of the kingdom that will not fade away.
