“Jewish families encourage pursuit of wealth accumulation, high-income careers, and investing.”

“It has become a cultural norm in Jewish families for parents to bring up their children to value wealth.”

“It’s easier to accumulate wealth if you don’t live in a high-status neighborhood.”

“One of the great differences that set Jews apart from other cultural groups is that we see our wealth as a means to partner with God, as a way to bring God’s kingdom into this earth, a concept that we call tikkun olam – perfecting the world. We perfect the world by using our God- given wealth to further God’s realm on this planet. So what you see is that the Jewish people’s pursuit of wealth is often paired with the pursuit of charitable works, not only for selfish purposes.”

“Wealth - any income that is at least $100 more a year than the income of one's wife's sister's husband.”

“Becoming wealthy is about accumulating wealth.”
