Matthew 25:27

then you should have deposited my money in a bank [dared to hand it over, not tried to keep it for yourself, at least done the minimum required], so that I could get back what was mine with interest when I came home. [Interest rates in the Middle East at that time were high, up to 50%. In Jesus' time, there was an upper limit of 12% in the Roman Empire.]
