I think it's about having enough money.
That's part of it! But prosperity also involves the feeling of fulfillment and the ability to share with others. It’s not just about wealth. Who can explain the difference between wealth and prosperity?
Wealth is about money and things, while prosperity includes happiness and sharing.

Exactly! Sustainable production is key. Now, who can tell me why equitable distribution of resources is important?
