Tips

usage
财富 is more abstract and broader than 财产. 财富 can refer to non-material wealth (knowledge, experience, health), while 财产 is specifically tangible property or assets.
culture
The Chinese character (fú, fortune/blessing) is often displayed upside down during Chinese New Year because (dào, upside down) sounds like (dào, to arrive) — so means 'fortune has arrived'.
