The First Oil Merchant
In the Bible (2 Kings 4:1-7), a poor widow had lost her husband and was about to lose her sons to creditors. She ran to the prophet Elisha.
Elisha asked her, “What do you have?”
She answered, “I have nothing... except this small jar.”
Hmm.
“Except this small jar.”
What mineral resources does your state have?
“We have nothing ooh... apart from this flat desert land with no trees.”
“We have nothing ooh... apart from clay.”
“We have nothing ooh... apart from columbite.”
But we digress.
Back to the Bible. Elisha told her, “Go and borrow empty jars from your neighbors. Don’t ask for just a few.”
Borrow? I thought borrowing was bad. Elisha could have filled her jar with the best olive oil, but he wanted to give her more. He wanted her to become an entrepreneur with lifelong income.
Elisha asked her to borrow from friends and family first, not the bank. She was a startup. Startups should never use bank loans to begin (interest will wipe you out). Why debt? By borrowing empty jars, the widow increased her capacity and created runway for growth. The lesson: gearing can create growth.
Elisha told her, “Go inside with your sons; then the oil will flow into the empty jars.”
Basically, start the manufacturing business with your boys. The widow obeyed, the oil flowed and flowed, and she and her sons started making bank.
Elisha wanted her to become an oil merchant. He could have given her cash; he didn’t. He gave her the means to become an oil entrepreneur. God is not a one-and-done God.
One part we overlook: Why did the oil stop? Her sons said, “We can’t raise any more capital.” Once they said no more jars could be obtained, the oil stopped. If she had opened a shop and kept raising capital, that oil might still be flowing. Selah. God never limits you; you do.
Lesson: You are your own limit.
What did she do with the oil? This is important. Elisha said, “Go, sell the oil and pay your debts. You and your sons can live on what is left.”
Breaking it down:
1. Go sell the oil: become an entrepreneur, trade the products of the borrowing.
2. Pay down your debt: you borrowed to generate wealth; now repay the debt.
3. Live on what is left: consume only the wealth generated after the debt has produced income and been repaid.
I wish I had time to go deeper, but here’s the summary:
1. You have more than you think you do.
2. Your capital is never enough; borrow.
3. Borrow zero-interest loans from family and friends to start.
4. Sometimes your business needs more than cash.
5. Never stop building market share; once you stop, you “die.”
6. Be bold and aggressive.
7. Monetize profitably.
8. Debt should generate income-bearing assets.
9. Pay off loans; debt can be a prison or a helper.
10. Consumption is good.
Most importantly, your business is only as good as your board of directors or who gives you advice. The widow was lucky to have Elisha as her “Chairman.” Seek out wise counsel.
