Abram Inherits Canaan
1 Then Abram went up from Egypt, he and his wife and all that he had, and aLot with him, bto the South.
2 aAbram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.
3 And he went on his journey afrom the South as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,
4 to the aplace of the altar which he had made there at first. And there Abram bcalled on the name of the Lord.
5 Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks and herds and tents.
6 Now athe land was not able to support them, that they might dwell together, for their possessions were so great that they could not dwell together.
7 And there was astrife between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. bThe Canaanites and the Perizzites then dwelt in the land.

Genesis 13:2-5
When it says he went to the south, you know if you went south from Egypt you would go to Ethiopia. But it means he went to the south of the land of Canaan, to the Negev, into the area of Beersheba. But he did not stop in Beersheba.
Now, we have not just one very rich man, but we have two. Lot is not called very rich, but he was also quite well off.
