    The simple answer is, nobody embraces a loser. If he was polling at 30% it would be a question.
    The simpler answer is, we aren’t socialist Russia! Their economy couldn’t sustain it’s people! We need to know that the harder you work and the better the product that you produce will bring for you economic gain! Getting free $$$ for doing nothing is a terrible idea!
    I think it’s great that people learn in kollel. It means a few things.
    1. Middle class and wealthy people have income that they can donate.
    2. Parents have income that they can give to their children.
    3. The young couple works. Wife can have income or husband can tutor in the evening. They need income as well.
    Giving out free $$$ means that everyone will have less. Less people can hire a tutor. Lessbpeople can hire kollel wife. Parents will have less. Donors will have less.

    Those of us by the siyum learned it already. Remember what R. Grand said last siyum, you need to learn something every day! A dad, an amud, a mishna or halacha, but YOU MIST LEARN SOMETHING!

    Personally, I don’t care to hear Rechnitz speak. I want to hear gedolim speak about the gadlos of Torah. I enjoyed the R. Lish and R. Farhi presentations about people who have mesiras nefesh for Torah, as well as R. Paysach Krohn. But I went to hear gedolim . Not wealthy baalei tzedokah.

    What he is doing is wrong. Moral and halacha wrong. If you damage his car you are liable for damages. If you have it towed you might have issue with mesirah. You are asking complicated halacha questions from unknown people who may or may not be qualified to answer this question. If you ask your Rav, please let us know what he says.

    I once heard R. Bluth zt”l say, when people divorce there are two choices, they can come to me for mediation or they can give all the money to divorce lawyers.

    I recommend that all civil issues are resolved before the Bais Din Get.

    It should be a logical decision. But, if there aren’t any feelings then something is missing. Figure it out before proceeding

    Unless you have a mesorah of going to mekubalim, I don’t recommend you going to one. The Vizhnitzer Rebbe from Monsey and Skloner Rebbe both yelled at people for going.
    It isn’t our mesorah to hear al pi Kabbalah what is going to be happening. A Brocha or advice from a Rebbe or Rosh Yeshiva or local rabbi is preferable.
    BTW, this might be a great question for your LOR.

    Peacho, I’m not trying to be funny or rude. There is nothing immodest about going to the mikvah. Nor is there something unsafe. You go to the mikvah and that’s it. Don’t focus so much on yourself and just do what you need to do. And don’t feel that it’s some weird Jewish thing, it’s perfectly acceptable all over the world.

    And don’t forget to say a tefillah before you take your meds that Hashem should help that it should be for a refuah sheleima. And before you go to your medical or mental health professional, ask Hashem that he should be the correct messenger.

    Vote selfishly? And Joseph agrees?
    1. Vote for the party that upholds moral values.
    2. Vote for the person who has upheld moral values in the past by nominating appropriate federal judges.
    3. Vote anti murder/abortion
    4. Vote for people who are anti socialist, so that people can have more money for worthy causes.
    5. Vote for people who have in the past assisted your community.
    6. Vote Trump!

    It is ok.
    I would give four scenarios, please let us know if one fits.
    1. He assumed that you just came home from work and was hungry. Keep him, he’s a nice guy!
    2. He comes from a wealthy family and doesn’t mind splurging on a first date. Sounds good!
    3. He’s a new dater and doesn’t know the rules. Not a reason to say no.
    4 He’s not so yeshivish and doesn’t care about yeshivishe dating rules. That decision is yours!
    Keep us updated! Pun intended!

    I personally prefer the English speeches.
    Agudas Yisroel hosts the siyum. At the head of Agudah sit the chassidish Rebbe’s and Litvish Rosh Yeshivas. They believe ( right or wrong) that Yiddish is a holy language. The Chassidim who come expect to hear their Rebbe speak in their holy language. I don’t know if Litvishe people expect the same from their Roshei Yeshiva, but I assume that the Roshei Yeshiva prefer Yiddish.
    Personally, I agree with the posters who would prefer an English event.
