It's interesting that you'll use the BIBLE to try to make a point; and yet ignore other stuff.

ACTS 2:42-44

44 All the believers were together and had everything in common.

45 They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need.

[St_Thomas_Aquinas]

Wouldn't do me much good to quote Church teaching, would it?

I thought quoting Jesus might carry some weight with you.

Now, how do you interpret Jesus' words?

And why should I take your interpretation more seriously than Christ's Church?
