Kosher Money

Five years ago, Rabbi, author, podcaster, Jewish thinker, friend - Dovid Bashevkin came on Kosher Money and gave us a lot to think about.
Well, he’s back. And this time, we get into our relationship with money: why it has such a hold on us, what we’re really chasing through it, and how to build a life where money matters… without it becoming what matters most.

There's one idea behind why anyone invests at all. Compound interest. Understand it, and the way you think about every dollar you own starts to change.The earlier you learn this, the more it's worth.

DISCLAIMER: This episode discusses a challenge that some businesses and individuals have experienced when extending credit or waiting for payment. This is a widespread problem, not specific to one industry, one religion or one group of people. Also, it is vital to emphasize that these experiences should not be understood as reflecting the conduct of the community as a whole. The overwhelming majority of people strive to act with integrity, honesty, and in line with both the law and Torah values. Our goal here is not to stereotype or cast blame, but to have an honest discussion about a real issue. If anybody has specific questions that are relevant to their situation, they should speak to their local Orthodox rabbi. This show is not meant to offer specific halachic or legal guidance in any way, shape or form. Our hope is that by talking about this with care, we can encourage accountability, strengthen trust, and reinforce the values we all share.At 35, Rivka Brodsky was starting over with eight kids, no work experience, and few computer skills.
Years later, she built a collections business recovering millions, while helping others become financially independent.
Her story is impressive and she is a real inspiration for many.

A new government investment account is making headlines.
Some people are calling it one of the biggest opportunities ever offered to parents. Others think it's being oversold.
So what's actually true?
In this episode, we break down the new Trump Account from top to bottom. Who qualifies, how the $1,000 government contribution works, whether it's really "free money," the tax implications, the downsides almost nobody is talking about, and whether this should be your first choice over a 529 plan or Roth IRA - don't worry I explain what those are.
If you have children, grandchildren, or hope to one day, this is an episode you'll want to understand before making any decisions.
Listen closely and enjoy.

America is wealthier than ever.
We have bigger homes, nicer cars, more technology, more convenience, and more opportunities than any generation before us.
So why do so many people feel exhausted?
Rabbi Noiky Roberts has spent nearly 30 years teaching, counseling, and helping people from all walks of life. Living outside the United States has given him a unique perspective on the pressures many of us have simply accepted as normal.
In this conversation, we discuss the rat race, social media, financial pressure, comparison culture, happiness, family, mental health, and why so many people keep chasing things that never seem to satisfy.
Some of what he says may make you uncomfortable.
That may be the point.
Listen closely and enjoy.
