I’m starting to notice a pattern here. It is either ‘Old School Chassidishism” and not tenable anymore.
Or it is “New School E”Y Chareidi” and not the way it was originally done.
You have a way of pigeonholing these things.
I am not sure where you think I went wrong. There is something called emunas chachamim. I am not a Tolna Chassid, I just go to him for my eitzas. So while I don’t feel like I need to give him my money per se, I hope that if he told me to give it to him I would have the ko’ach hanefesh to be able to.
I’m sorry I thought I answered your point on magiyah li. Can you repost that part because I can’t find which one you are referring to.
