Spending is Slowly Destroying Jewish Communities from Within (w/ Rabbi Gewirtzman) | KOSHER MONEY

The cost of an Orthodox Jewish living isn't low. But do we make the challenge harder on ourselves? Put another way, if I come to the Rabbi and say "Good news! I just received a 5% raise and I'm now making $175,000! I've made it! Finally, time to breathe." How would he respond? We went through that and more with Rabbi Eliezer Gewirtzman who eloquently shared his research, insights and guidance to everyone looking to live within their means (and a happier life as a result).
