September 28, 2022 The Hasidic Economy: an overview
This video is my best attempt to give you a brief overview of the Hasidic economy. Since viewers might have questions after this video, which tackles such a large and difficult topic, I decided to do a livestream to answer questions posted in the chat. The livestream is scheduled for September 19, 2022, at 6 pm. Once I finish the stream, it will be available for viewing on my youtube channel.

Posted at 06:44h, 29 SeptemberAs usual, Freidy does a good job…
Such a good job, that I must say my critic…
The root of the problem and the reason the education problem came up in the news was because the plain poor and not connected OTD will have a hard time making a living.
So within the community everything shines… unless you do a wrong move and become in חרם.
In the end the Hasidic method of lacking secular education is yet another tool which is used to make it hard to leave the community.
Again thank you for your good work.

Posted at 07:53h, 29 SeptemberI can attest to the truth of your comment from my own experience. I tried to make this short and without my opinions but part of relying on each other for economics like this means that your whole livelihood is on the line if you don’t conform.

Posted at 22:06h, 04 NovemberThis video is so accurate and interesting. I have been reading a lot about the Hasidic community because I’m currently working by Hasidic owned stamps company. Honestly, as an outsider you wouldn’t imagine how their whole economy works and how monopolize they have the Amazon market.
