“Even those who are blessed with money may not squander it on lavish simchas, and especially those who are struggling financially may not borrow money to pay for things that are not essential.”

Inside a Brooklyn yeshiva, more than 100 people gathered last month to dance and celebrate a marriage — of a 15-year-old bride.
The groom was either 21 or 22, according to someone who was in attendance.
Now Joel Roth, the Hasidic rabbi who heads the Williamsburg yeshiva called Mosdos Heichel Hakodesh Breslev, is under investigation by the NYPD and city Administration for Children’s Services for his role in arranging and performing unofficial underage marriages
