Ecclesiastes 5:11

CJB

NIV

11 When the quantity of goods increases, so does the number of parasites consuming them; so the only advantage to the owner is that he gets to watch them do it.
11 As goods increase, so do those who consume them. And what benefit are they to the owners except to feast their eyes on them?
