A biblical story writes about a rich man who gave his house to all, equipped fully, without demanding any money but unfortunately without any monitoring with the result that visiting people devastated his house and were unsatisfied because there were not enough goods to loot? Where it is in the Bible?
 
I’m not familiar with that one. Are you sure it’s from the Bible?

There is one story (Mark 12:1-11, usccb.org/nab/bible/mark/mark12.htm ) which remotely resembles what you describe. It is Jesus’ parable of a vineyard owner who leased his vineyard to tenants. When the owner sent his servants to collect some of the produce, the servants were beaten. Finally the owner sent his son, whom the tenants put to death. (The son represents Jesus.)
 
I do not know of such a story but it reminds me of the Vineyard. That was always a difficult story for me, the priest explained the owner is God, the Looters are Phrases, the servants are prophets. Matthew 21
 
If the man was very rich or little rich I do not know any more. The man, who gave up his house to all or to only poor people, did it hoping he did well. But the people could not or did not wanted to be grateful. That I can understand but to be unsatisfied because there were not enough goods to loot is a sample of thinking worse or dafter than a bag of nails. Where it is in the Bible?
