The guy had somewhere around $100 million money. A lot of money. I don't know if it's more than you, less than you, doesn't really make much of a difference, but $100 million according to all accounts a lot of money. And he similar to a lot of people respected Judaism, respected the rabbis. And the rabbis would come visit him. And he would give them 100 year, 1,000 year. And he told them "Listen, one day when I die I'm going to give it all to you guys." And they told him the same thing. "GIVE IT TO US NOW." "WHY WAIT UNTIL YOU DIE?" HE GOES, "NO, LISTEN, I LIKE having the money. I'll give IT TO YOU AFTER I DIE." AND THEY DIDN'T REALLY care if they keep Shabbat. And they didn't really care if he kept kosher. What they care about? His bank account was really big. It was so big they called him sir. It was so big they put on a three-piece suit. It was so big they shook his hand. It was so big you're a tzaddik. All of a sudden YOU'RE A TZADDIK. WHY? CUZ YOU HAVE A BIG BANK ACCOUNT. Guess what? He wasn't any of those. Because to be a tzaddik you have to keep Torah mitzvot. To be righteous you have to keep Torah mitzvot. There's no such thing as righteous without keeping Torah mitzvot. Doesn't exist. You can call yourself looking IN THE MIRROR CALL YOURSELF TZADDIK ALL DAY, BUT IF you're not keeping Torah mitzvot you cannot be a tzaddik. So a person has to know that Hakadosh Baruch Hu wants to show. And what ends up happening is the guy one day dies. Like everybody at some point or another dies. And the lawyers call the rabbi who was apparently the the trustee. He was supposed to get all the money. So now HE GETS A CALL FROM the lawyer. "We have to finalize the inheritance. Come to our office." He comes to the office. He's excited. He's wearing a four-piece suit this time. His 30-year investment into this GUY FINALLY IS PAYING OFF. RIGHT? SHOWS UP AT THE PLACE, but he sees there's a pastor, there's a priest, and there's a Imam, and one Buddhist. This guy was a Buddhist? There was going to be a rush. WHAT WAS GOING ON HERE? CUZ HE BROUGHT THESE PEOPLE. HE GOES, "NO, NO, THE LAW FIRM BROUGHT THEM." Why why why why did the law firm bring these people? He says, "Because Thank you. He said, "Because the the guy left an inheritance, and he says he wants to give the money for the benefit of the Bible." He goes, "Yeah, well, where the Bible?" He goes, "No, according to our understanding, you're the Torah. The priest and the pastor, they're the Bible. So, we wanted you to sign off to finalize all $100 million going to the church."
