Feivel, Newbee….
I didn’t take offense. If I was afraid of adverse comments, even in jest, I wouldn’t post and I certainly would not be involved in local politics.
I don’t consider myself to have great wealth, aside from my family>wife, children, grandchildren.
The point is a dollar buys much more house and land outside of NYC. That’s why those in the suburbs put up with a much longer walk to the one orthodox shul in town.
It’s all about choices and what makes one feel comfortable.
