Generous Leadership

Expansive, boisterous, generous, reliable, and hardy, the King of Coins is a people's king. He rules out of a large feasting hall, like a Norse Jarl, and its doors are thrown open to all. He does not hoard his wealth or shut his people out, but instead he is a faithful and dependable provider and protector, and he participates actively in the lives of those around him. His wealth is not inherited—it is hard won and he has the calluses on his aging hands to show for his labors. He forges community and uses his experience and wisdom to lift up the people around him to comfort and security.

Practical Wisdom

He is practical, pragmatic, and unafraid to get his hands dirty. The King of Coins warns us against judging or treating people unjustly or with prejudice, based on their class or material means. He shows us that if you have wealth, resources or energy to spare, you must not greedily stockpile them but use them to improve the lives of others.

Integrated Generosity

He teaches us that even one act of charity is wonderful. But generosity is far more effective when integrated into our daily practice, serving as fuel in the economic and social cycle of bettering the community.

Living in Society

In short, the King of Coins lives in a society—and so do you.
