Meanings of elements
FOLLOW IN ORDER SEQUENCE with FLESHPOT, WEALTH
…or: LOSS, LOSER, DEFEAT and COAGULATED, FROZEN, DRIPPING with DEFICIENCY
…or: NEXT WEALTH
…or: NEXT FLESHPOT
…or: SUBSTANDARD DEFICIENT and FLESHPOT
…or: LACKING and WEALTH
Interestingly, as「defeated」with「frigid, frozen, coagulated, dripping with deficiency」inserted within, this glyph describes the concept of FINANCIAL LIQUIDITY necessary by obtaining FINANCING, CAPITAL FUNDING, WORKING CAPITAL. A 'frozen' illiquid position often results in defeat, unable to capitalize on opportunities that become lost.
 「Next fleshpot」embodies TRADING ASSETS ostensibly to increase one's WEALTH, with the case in point being one's herd of meat concubines, not unlike trading most any other commodity in today's market:「frigid」concubines resulted in a「loss, defeat」as did「substandard, deficient fleshpots」who became EXPENSES rather than an asset. Negative working capital and being unable to meet obligations as they are due is one definition of bankruptcy,「changing status of losing person」from a trading merchant to an unemployed begging peddler.
 Folks often trade something no longer needed or desired due to some deficiency, with the purchaser experiencing「loss as the second person」to acquire the thing.
 One's「next wealth」is FINANCED from RESOURCES held at present (timber, coal, crops, labor, knowledge, fleshpots, etc.).「Deficient, lacking」and「wealth」indicates the raw, natural, unrefined state of some resource that requires some sort of processing by adding labor and/or by other means in order to reach its full potential. Wealth, but as yet, lacking.
 Note to accountants: perhaps confusingly, this glyph is used to describe both assets and capital, traditionally positioned on opposite sides of a statement of financial position, although it can be logically argued that net assets and capital are in fact one and the same, and only positioned opposite one another in the oretical world of a double-entry accounting system precisely because they are different sides of the same thing viewed from opposite perspectives. In the financial world prior to the advent of junk bonds and cyber-currencies, one's「next wealth」was derived from investing today's capital (net assets).
 Elements as「inferior wealth」might be EXPENSES disbursed in order to provide one's「next in line wealth」and accounting treatment of both assets and expenses results in a net debit in the account ledger, generally, with the difference being the timing and/or duration related to perceived future value: if one year or less, the general rules classify expenditures as expenses, and if longer than one year, then classify as an asset. De minimis rules and materiality must be considered as well. The point is that classes of assets and expenses are fundamentally the same thing but with different useful life durations.
 「Two people rolling head with fleshpot」describe a shaman's service provider, ownership over an ASSET, chattel resources, and what caused EXPENSES. Same two guys incurred EXPENSES when in the shaman's cave o' wonder shrines and temples, with their expenses paid for short-term rentals becoming her revenue, different sides of the same thing from two perspectives. Both the lord's and the shaman's assets enabled purchase of the「next-in-line fleshpots.」

Always keep in mind that these glyphs were originally created by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles and analogies for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that) and represented Chinese society many thousands of years ago, and not as a written or spoken language. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system. Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is! Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? And now, there is a cover-up. No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how bad the human world is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or they could only have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any dictionary. This site explains the dual meanings of glyphs most often ignored by other sources that provide you with only the sanctioned definition, generally.
