Affluence gained by Deceit

            अधर्मेणैधते तावत् ततो भद्राणि पश्यति।
            तत: सपत्नान् जयति समूलस्तु विनश्यति॥

            Adharmen Aidhtay Taavat Tato Bhadraani Pashyati
            Tatah Sapatnaan Jayati Samoolastu Vinashyati 

By crookedness and iniquity, one may attain temporary affluence and prosperity.
May also experience good fortune and happiness for some time.
Because of wealth, one can even win enemies - even the enemies become his friends.
But in the end - their fall and descent are certainly ordained.  
Wealth earned by crookedness and iniquity -  deceit and fraud ultimately leads to one's own destruction.
Those who take wealth from poor people in the name of religion & charity and use it for their own luxury and pleasure are doomed to utter destruction.
History shows that they may enjoy living a happy and prosperous life for a while - 
but eventually - their whole heritage is shattered and eliminated.
