The Money Lines The Money Lines don't indicate material wealth, so much as they influence, in some hands, skill in acquiring cash and how it can be done. (note: if you are looking for lines that influence success, material wealth and security, look at the lines pertaining to fame, health and fate.) A line that runs from the base of the thumb, to below the index finger ending in a star, indicates a natural talent for moneymaking. A line that travels from the base of the thumb to the little finger indicates wealth acquired through inheritance or family allowances. A line running from the base of the thumb to below the middle finger indicates money made in business. A line from the Head Line that runs to the ring finger, cutting through the Fame Line, indicates money acquired through luck and by surprise.
