Yserb, go to Williamsburg and stop reading blogs. You’ll see that everything you’re saying is bogus.
The average chasidishe father did not go to college but went into business.
Satmar had an expo last month with 300 chasidishe-run businesses. The organizer, yoeli fried (himself a successful business owner who learned marketing from reading food ads) said that over 1,000 applied, but there was no room.
These are businesses that can afford booths in an expo.
And they all hire dozens of chasidishe yidden.
It’s not “here and there”, it’s literally everywhere – chasidim do well in business; i knew that before i was a torah jew and my view of chasidim was that they were backward and weird. I knew that they were big in real estate, Jewelry, retail, etc…
It’s the opposite – the ones who go to college are salaried and struggle to make ends meet like the majority of the litvishe world.
