Therefore, I tell you, make friends for yourselves by using worldly wealth, so that when it fails [i.e., when you run out of money] they [i.e., the friends you made with its wise and benevolent use] may welcome you into the eternal [i.e., heavenly] dwelling places. [Note: The idea here seems to be that by your shrewd use of material possessions for the benefit of others, you are actually storing up treasures for yourself in heaven].

For indeed, we groan while in this "house," longing to be covered over by our heavenly dwelling place,

because when we are covered by it, we will not be found naked [i.e., without a suitable dwelling for our body].
