Material wealth:
Material wealth is the basic wealth of people, including food, clothing, housing and other material basic wealth. The first category is fundamental wealth, and fundamental wealth is human life matter, that is, the body. The second category is necessary wealth, which is material wealth closely related to food and clothing for the body. Such as the food to eat, the clothes to wear, the house to live in, etc.
Spiritual wealth:
Spiritual wealth refers to the achievements made by people engaged in intellectual activities. Such as copyrights, patent rights, trademark rights, scientific and technological achievement rights and invention rights, etc. It is an intangible thing, that is, apart from material wealth, it is spiritual wealth.
Extended information:
Compared with material wealth, the biggest feature of human spiritual wealth is intangibility, it is an invisible existence. The amount of spiritual wealth a person possesses can only be known by feeling.
It does not necessarily increase with an individual's material wealth. People with rich material wealth can send their children to study abroad, buy them many books, and let them watch elegant art performances or exhibitions.
But this does not guarantee that their descendants will increase in spiritual wealth. On the contrary, some poor people do not have the time and money to appreciate fine art, or even go to school, but they do not necessarily become mentally poor.
