Nine in the fifth place means:
If you are sincere and loyally attached,
You are rich in your neighbor.
Loyalty leads to firm ties because it means that each partner
complements the other. In the weaker person loyalty consists in
devotion, in the stronger it consists in trustworthiness. This relation
of mutual reinforcement leads to a true wealth that is all the more
apparent because it is not selfishly hoarded but is shared with
friends. Pleasure shared is pleasure doubled.
