Devarim To Rich Religious Jews

page 32 says the reason why is sinned with the golden calf is because gave them too much gold that wasu's argument against not to kill he says it's your fault he says to they were fighting like husband and wife's relationship with mosu was unique and unlike anything else that ever existed or ever will exist comes to with a complaint and says it's your fault you gave them too much gold you gave them gold in Egypt you gave them gold at yamu you gave them gold after yam you gave them Gold Everywhere they wanted to do something with it they build a golden calf don't destroy them it's not completely their fault if you didn't give them all the blessings how they going to build a goldf says to mosenu I'm not going to destroy them I'm not going to destroy them in so many words not that it's aem's fault but there's an argument here that you're arguing for my children and I love you for it gave this generation that we are in more financial wealth than any other Jewish generation aside from the generation of schl the average Jew is doing much better today than their grandparents could ever imagine certainly there are ones that are extraordinarily wealthy but even the average the average Jew here in America in Western Society is doing extraordinarily well but yet when you tell them listen we have we have in some of them are doing well some of them are financially settled but some of them literally we need to help them every week and send them 500 bucks so they could buy groceries so they could buy diapers and people say why don't they get a job why they get a job why a give you a job what does a leave the world exist for the Torah that the is learning or you working at some company who does the keep the world running for you or the one that learns Torah for 15 hours a day day and night the rules of the world will cease to exist the world exist only because those are learning Tor not because you're working on Wall Street or you're working on Main Street or you have some type of Entrepreneurship idea that's not why the world exists instead of asking why don't they get a job you should ask ask yourself why don't I commit part of my income to helping them continue learning even more but instead of using the gold that a gave you to finance more Tora all he does is give you ideas to repeat the same mistake that was made 3,334 years ago with the golden calf you have too much gold I have FR people sending me more questions about their stock portfolios real estate accounts and their theories about different precious metals and commodities then I have them asking me a questions people are much more interested in managing their portfolio in this world than managing their you ask the person how much time you learn each way how much time you say I get I have tough time learning I understand you have a lot tough time learning that's why you're in a mortgage business that's why you're in the uh stock business that's why you're in a grocery store business pharmaceutical business all types of businesses I understand you're not a learner you're not an A but how much time are you learning you're still a Jew you have questions about pharmaceuticals you have questions about different uh things in regards to business you're a commodity expert because you somehow you've decided you are after investing in the market for 5 years Wall Street Executives 30 years in the business are not not experts but you are because you have internet access so how much time do you learn Torah oh you know I I put in there you know may I get maybe a Shure here and there on the way to work a Shure here and there on the way to work what half hour 40 minutes out of 24 hours so you're telling me that you think it's okay to be a religious Jew where kadh gives you 24 hours per day of which you use eight hours to sleep 8 to 10 hours to work leaving you somewhere between another eight 6 to 8 hours left and out of the 6 hours that's left 5 and 1 half hours of it is just complete nonsense bathroom eating drinking looking at your stock portfolio managing some real estate you think you have and becoming some type of analyst of some type of industry and watching YouTube videos and out of that you somehow fit in you squeezed in that half hour of Tor and you think that's being a religious Jew you think aad is happy with this partnership is that why you think he took us out of Egypt is that why you think he gave us the Torah in Mount sa where the whole world heard what happened is that why you think he allowed us to overcome all of the biggest enemies that ever existed in history all of the biggest civilizations all of the most powerful armies were always the enemies of the Jewish people whether it was the Assyrians or the Babylonians the Turks the Spaniards the Nazis the Romans the Greeks all of the biggest armies were always enemies of the Jews yet they're all gone in history books and we are here you think that that's because you learn a sh maybe sometimes when you have time and you're actually paying attention for a half hour a day that's why you think did it for that half hour a day so what you can collect and accumulate more gold and tell people your net worth has increased by another 50% in the last 12 months so you can tell people that your last stock pick was a success and somehow you've decided you're a stock Guru giving people stock tips as if you're giving them Tic Tacs is that why you think a did all of that for you to be an investor for you to be an entrepreneur there's no problem with entrepreneurship there's no problem with making money but once you have made that money into the gold of the golden calf you have forgotten while you're Jewish You' forgotten why you're Jewish and many people will consider themselves from According to all perceptions but their hunger for money and money issues is in such a addiction that their mentality is more concerned with their stocks and real estate of this world than the of they're building themselves Villas empires in a temporary World whereas in the next World they could only hope for maybe a bathroom how much can you possibly accumulate in this world and take with you to the next one but yet when you tell them you say you're right but what can I do what can you do at the same time provided all of these abilities all of these new ways for you to make more gold for you to make more money he also gave you abilities to make more mitv with that gold that gold should give you a certain amount of freedom if you have enough money to do whatever you want that means you have enough time to do whatever you want because you could simply buy somebody that could do what you want to do and use that time to learn Torah if you have money and a consistent income that means you have the ability to finance Torah in addition to your learning and look at the Torah as a business no different than your regular business everyone wants the funnel system the business system where you have different incomes coming from different ways everyone understands it everyone wants it but yet when you tell them that if you invest in teiru it's the best funnel you can possibly ever imagine because while your funnel in this world doing your Amazon business and all of the other things that you're going to do is going to give you gold in this world for a certain amount of time that's certainly not permanent because something will change and you will have to recreate yourself as all economies change and all times change and all blessings change but the blessing from helping another Jew do chuva that doesn't change you in invest that money into helping Jews like the sadik that we showed today that pure that lived several years ago has a descendant in the world that told us thank you for helping him put on to filling today or yesterday it was of the previous generations has a grandson in this generation that had to have help to put on to filling different sikim and I call them sikim not because they're extremely righteous but rather because of the that they have and where they come from when they hear the truth and how they change and how they overcome different things all types of families we have people that are from the families of theim from 900 years years ago as students we have descendants of the konish descendants of the ramban descendants of different from the previous generations watching these sh all because a few people want to help us invest in this generation in order to build eternity but if you look at the world today most of the wealth is not going to its kiru it's not going towards the best funnel system it's going towards another possession another physicality build another Sho even though the five other giant buildings in the neighborhood don't even have a minan buy another SE even though the sh already has 100 and they can only use one at a time and you're lucky if you use five a year more as if people don't have food in the house more parties as if they create any MIT more publicity more events but how many Jews are actually doing chuva from all of this I'd be surprised if any and the reality is when a person looks at helping another Jew not just doin but give him a book to read give him a USB to listen to give him the tools to take that mitvah that he just did and build himself a new life a new eternity once that person takes that challenge and starts doing mitv starts putting on to filling every day starts keeping Shabbat every week starts learning toah every day while he works and Plumbing and in a AC air conditioners and in carpets and in all the other industries that are out there but he's learning some Torah and he's doing the MIT whoever wasn't responsible for the cost of that fine for the cost of that USB for the cost of that book or books that person just acquir themselves a bigger share in than they have for themselves from their own MIT meaning you can work your whole life learn do do do amazing things best case scenario you got yourself you help another Jew do Chua you now have another 310 worlds meaning the reward for helping another one of a kad's children come back home is much greater than even your own mitv this is not to say a person shouldn't do mitv for themselves because obviously you're not going to have the Merit to help others if you're not doing it yourself hasm hates Hypocrites but the point being is is that when you see that people are so focused on the funnel systems and the different ways to make money in this world buy the house and rent the side apartment buy this uh this particular company and break it up and sell it into pieces do this and make money that way do that and make money this way all types of funnels all types of systems all types of Investments it's perfectly fine so long as you're also investing just as much intoa and don't tell me no I do a little bit because then the follow-up question is what is a little bit do you do a little bit in business also because if you do a little bit in why you doing a lot of bit in this world if your portfolio in this world is a billion dollars a million $10 million however much money a person has but your portfolio in the next world is 500 bucks a month how do you justify that how do you justify that in the day of judgment when a is looking you in the face and asking you that portfolio of houses that you buil the portfolio of companies that you bought the portfolio of different Industries you were involved in they're all back in the world you just left the portfolio of MIT the portfolio of n that you could have saved are almost empty how do you plead how do you justify what are you going to say on that day what are you going to say when aad is looking at you in his in your face and is asking you why did you invest every bit of gold that I gave you in a temporary world what is your answer going to be oh I needed money to eat did create to starve you or I needed to pay for a house that make you homeless or I needed a car that forc you to walk everywhere or I needed a break who gave you the ability to do that a person that does not learn T is a person that is disconnected from a and forgot who gave him the blessing this is what what mosenu is warning the most religious people in the history of mankind he's not really reminding secular people of all of this he's not talking to people that are haters of God he's talking to religious people and he's telling them you are one footstep away from losing everything how you forget what the s wor of all your blessing is amen
