Everybody today seems to have a house, a renovation, a driveway full of cars… and a lot of people tend to wonder: “How are they doing it?”
And maybe the bigger question: “Am I supposed to be doing it too?”
Rabbi Eliezer Gewertzman speaks very honestly about the pressure people feel around money, buying homes, keeping up appearances, and living within your means.
There were moments during this interview where you could feel the room get quiet. I think a lot of people know exactly what he’s talking about.
Listen closely and enjoy.
