"They will leave with substantial wealth" [Lech Lecha 15:14]
The above verse indicates that amassing wealth was one of the purposes of Egyptian exile. For this to be achieved, it was necessary for Yosef to become the ruler of Egypt and gather wealth from all the other lands.
According to chassidic teachings, ''sparks of holiness'' are trapped within the physical world and are released when a Jew takes the object and uses it to perform a mitzvah. Therefore, one of the inner purposes of exile is for the Jew to utilize physical objects in the service of G-d.
Thus, someone who truly desires to cleave to G-d needs to involve himself in the physical performance of mitzvot, for this is also the only way he can fulfill his soul's mission.

well for anyone that gets "stung" by the Akrav(ayin-beth=72) there is already a remedy. full moon of the Chodesh should have a big healing into the cloud globally. I am recommending for folks on the basic grain-based diet with alcohol as basic inebriant that they try some of the Polynesian herb Kava Kava- it is a rare empathogen. connects the nephesh to the etheric in the ruach soul. In a circle also is how the locals use the herb for communal healing. Join the cloud! Margolis
I don't know if Kava is available in many places. I have tried it when I was in Vanuatu many years ago.... it doesn't agree with everyone and can have a bad effect, so I think people should investigate this beforehand.
Margolis: telling people to try Kava to achieve some kind of spiritual effect is not something I would recommend. It is a drug and it should not be used by everyone. See this: https://adf.org.au/drug-facts/kava/
