లోభి బీదకంటే బీడు.

This proverb is used to highlight that moral values and integrity are what define a human being. Without them, a person's behavior can be more unpredictable or destructive than that of a wild animal, specifically a monkey, which is known for its restless and mischievous nature.

This proverb highlights a practical reality: while a donor may have a generous heart, they cannot help if they have no resources. In contrast, a miser possesses wealth that might eventually be accessed, used by others, or circulated in the economy, making their existence more practically useful to society than the empty-handed generosity of a poor person.

This proverb suggests that wealth hoarded by a greedy or miserly person, who refuses to spend it on themselves or for good causes, will eventually be taken away by others (like thieves) or wasted by circumstances. It emphasizes the futility of extreme hoarding.

This proverb highlights that a wealthy person who is stingy (a miser) is still more useful in a society or economy than someone who has a generous heart but no resources to actually give. It is used to emphasize that practical capability often outweighs good intentions when there is a lack of means.

This proverb describes a situation where someone who is not directly affected by an event reacts more intensely or experiences more trouble than the person actually involved. It is used to mock people who display unnecessary empathy, overreact to others' problems, or take credit/pain for something they didn't do.

This proverb is used to describe how a stingy person who never spends money on themselves or others eventually loses it to strangers or the public, often after their death. It emphasizes that hoarding wealth without enjoying it or helping others is ultimately futile.

This expression is used to describe how people tend to exaggerate the qualities or potential of things that are already lost or projects that have failed. Just as a child who died at birth is often remembered as being exceptionally healthy or large, people often overstate the greatness of 'what could have been' in hindsight.

This proverb highlights that a stingy person who refuses to spend money on themselves or others will eventually lose it all. When a miser dies or loses control, their hoarded wealth usually ends up being spent or enjoyed by strangers or the public rather than serving its intended purpose.

This proverb highlights the importance of the tools or workers behind any endeavor. Just as an unhealthy or weak ox cannot plow a field effectively, leading to a poor harvest, the quality of a result depends directly on the quality of the resources and effort invested.

This proverb highlights the vital importance of the farmer to the land. It suggests that without the hard work, care, and presence of a dedicated farmer, even fertile land will turn into a barren, uncultivated wasteland. It is used to emphasize that the productivity of any asset or organization depends entirely on the diligence of its caretaker.
