jakobParticipant
no negativity intended, just the honest truth.
very sad where the young parents of today’s generation versus our parents i.e. the parents of last generation, they are the grandparents of today’s generation. the way our young parents of todays generation are raising our children is far from the proper way to be mechanech a frum torah family. raising our children with the fanciest toys & technologies starting from as young as 8 or even younger, giving in to our children’s demands versus last generation when we respected our parents & kindly asked for something we wanted hoping they will allow us to have it & get it for us. oohhhhhhhhhh nooooooooooo those days are over our children are making endless demand, but our neighbor has this toy or went on this vacation etc…. & spoiling our children with unlimited unnecessary things that do not belong in the book of “the proper ways of being mechanach our frum children of a torah family”
Sure we need to spend lots of time with our children & give them lots of TLC so they are happy but theres a limit when we are pushing it & going too far with putting at risk the mitzva of raising our children the proper frum way. “Better safe then sorry” with the proper way then learn C”V THE HARD WAY for spoiling them & giving into them so much as they head down the derech into kids at risk C”V its not worth it.
July 11, 2019 11:38 pm at 11:38 pm in reply to: The differences between Litvish/Yeshivish marriages and Chasidish marriages #1757443jakobParticipantthere are many differences including:
Chassidim get married at much younger ages then litvish families
Chassidish families the shidduch is chosen by both sets of parents & they don’t base it on the dating & how they feel about each other (which i think is totally misplaced making it sound like the parents know better then the actual boy & girl dating each other)
lots of more differences but too many to list more
jakobParticipantIs there anything wrong with a regular yeshiva person biking to learn instead of driving? Is there something wrong with doing exercise or going to gym to stay in shape ? (As you make it sound like it’s wrong ) if a person lives not far from work is there something wrong with him biking there instead of driving there? Is biking below a man’s dignity after a certain age or an embarrassment? Live within your budget and get what you need NOT WHAT YOU WANT so if you can manage with a bike and don’t need a car for most of your errands and needs then go for it and save on your expenses and think about the future.
April 25, 2019 7:22 pm at 7:22 pm in reply to: Difference between Chabad and everyone else? #1719503jakobParticipantThe difference is that they believe hashem comes first but their rebbe is an inch after. That’s pushing it WAY TO FAR.
Our rebbes and rabbis are messenger to help guide us through life but their not like a G-d
jakobParticipantIf someone is blessed to eat just to have strength and is not looking for pleasure can you think of any kind of food with less pleasure then matza?
jakobParticipantTime for serious teshuva together.
Don’t think we can all just live in denial and think we can fool Hashem into thinking we don’t see hashems tragic wake up calls for teshuva
January 27, 2019 5:30 pm at 5:30 pm in reply to: why hasn't the pre-geula teshuva movement started? #1668964jakobParticipantbump

December 12, 2018 7:23 pm at 7:23 pm in reply to: What’s the best way to drink the morning coffee? #1643458jakobParticipantCoffee is not what gives you the real caffeine for the day to keep you awake neither is it a good night sleep that keep you awake by day. Your strength comes directly from Hashem “Boruch hanosein layoef coach” don’t let your corrupt psychological mind (yetzer hara) fool you
jakobParticipantGet a FULL set of glasses new for less then 50 cents each
jakobParticipantPut your oil glasses in a large washing cup filled with water and let it sit in the water for a few hours and then take them out and hard wipe each one until their dry and ready to be put away
jakobParticipantCause hatzolah volunteers are there to help their brethren in need of help to save lives. Once you start billing insurance you turn the entire life saving organization into a business and throw the chessed of helping your brothers away.
I.e. if your going to bill insurance then I will just use a EMT service that is a business of providing ambulance services and other emergency help etc… Versus hatzolah volunteers acting as chessed when in truth it’s all business and their billing insurance.
WE HELP OUR BRETHREN TO SAVE THEIR LIVES NOT TO MAKE MONEY
December 2, 2018 12:00 am at 12:00 am in reply to: What’s with all the hate crimes against Klal Yisroel ?!?! #1635006jakobParticipant1)Eisav sonei ess Yaakov. I.e. klal Yisroel will ALWAYS be hated by the other nations we are living amongst us.
2)when the hatred grows and gets worse R”L we are ALL supposed to face reality and openly be honest with asking ourselves why is the hatred getting worse R”L? we all know itscnit coincidence. If we wake up now and take the message from Hashem. Then we can have it stopped right away and will not need any more wake up calls from Hashem for Teshuva.
November 30, 2018 1:18 am at 1:18 am in reply to: The real reason for gifts instead of money #1633584jakobParticipantIf you give a gift instead f money then they will never know how much you paid for it no matter what the value is. You might have gotten a cheaper bulk value and they will never know how much you feel they are worth spending on a gift for them.
My opinion is to always buy them a gift and not cash or a money gift card to a place and the product gift handed over and looked at has real value and shows real appreciation to the person given too even if it costs a mere few dollars. Otherwise you would need to start heading up starting from minimum $18 to $100 and maybe even a $1000 cash gift card to be enough to prove to the person your appreciation for them or they’re value for birthday etc….
November 24, 2018 7:50 pm at 7:50 pm in reply to: Lev Tahor and other frum cults- and don’t misunderstand me #1629764jakobParticipantSo bottom line whose worse the lev tumah cult or the naturei Karta cult? What is your opinion?
jakobParticipantYour right. All medicine is bad and fake cause in real truth and HONESTY nothing and No one can heal you besides for Hashem. So if you know someone sick the only medicine you can take for a refuah is tefilla to Hashem for a healing.
jakobParticipantTime for serious teshuva as one loving nation together On all levels from frum to Frei to chassidish etc and stop the sinas chinam occurring in klal Yisroel today. How can we expect mashiach to come when the sinas chinam today is worse then the days of the bais Hamikdosh that was destroyed because of sinas chinam?
Hashem is not waiting for the personal Yom Kippur teshuva. We need to return with teshuva to a loving nation of achdus together as one no matter how Jewish we are including Bernie Sanders and Mark Zuckerberg.
A holocaust survivor that was hiding during the Pittsburgh attacks said this reminds him of the pre-war Nazi days. Start making aliya to Israel before things get really bad and the anti-Semitism gets worse than it is already C”V
May this start happening ASAP before any tragedy strikes C”V
jakobParticipantStop running after every stupid desire that comes to your mind and instead use your budget wisely so you don’t need to live paycheck to paycheck.
“GET WHAT YOU NEED NOT WHAT YOU WANT” then you can live a life of happiness and joy with your family

“I think that sometimes the news is very depressing. Is there a way to post happier news?”FACT ABOUT NEWS : news is ALWAYS bad cause who cares who won the lottery (happy news) who made their flight last minute etc…. (you dont even know the person flying)
to end on good news how about living on this famous line “no news is good news”
so thats the best way to get your good newsjakobParticipantso you can save yourself from a life of stress & depression. everyone NOW says i promise if i was rich or became rich i would be so happy but that would all change to stress & depression
may you never come to know whats its like & may we all live a happy filling & scheduled life ahead
jakobParticipantIn the Muslim bible it says ” there’s a rock behind you kill him” Muslims believe that the word rock is referring to a jew and just like we have a mitzva to destroy amalek, they have a mitzva to destroy Jews.
For a Muslim being a suicide bomber. They feel like they have nothing to lose and 3 things to gain 1)they believe that they will go straight to heaven 2)they’re family
gets life support from the PA government and3) they get to kill Jews.Bnei Yishmael-muslims, which includes iran, iraq, saudia arabia, Afghanistan and the Palestinians etc….-will be the last ones to fight klal Yisroel before mashiach comes.
May mashiach be here very soon-we just need to first do teshuva as one loving nation together
jakobParticipantIf you post these places here then they will become mobbed with coffee room families
jakobParticipantwe will NEVER forget 9/11 & the 3000 people who perished in it together will all the heroes of the police & fire departments who helped Save hundreds of lives

A bike is not electric so as long as it’s inside the eruv it’s fine. It’s just not shabbosdik
July 24, 2018 12:29 am at 12:29 am in reply to: Terribly Missing the Gedolei Europe who built Torah Yiddishkeit in America #1563485jakobParticipantif we want our gedolei Hador back together with the nevi’im & tzaddikim etc…. THEN WE NEED TO DO TESHUVA & stop living in DENIAL thinking we can fool Hashem that we are not seeing his tragic wake up calls for us to do teshuva together as a nation
July 24, 2018 12:28 am at 12:28 am in reply to: Don’t move to Lakewood before having a school 4 the kids #1563483jakobParticipantCleveland is the new original Lakewood
Cleveland today is what lakewood was approximately 22 years ago. People moved to lakewood to devote their lives to Torah bit sadly that has all changed-so a few people could pocket the money -to a town filled with the fanciest restaurant and ladies exquisite clothing stores etc that don’t belong in a town devoted and built for Torah by Rav Aaron Kotler ZTL
now that is what Cleveland is today. A beautiful small Torah community with telz yeshiva and free education to raise a Torah family
jakobParticipantSo true and very sad
May we all wake up and do Teshuva very soon
July 22, 2018 8:01 am at 8:01 am in reply to: How could a multi-billion dollar thief do teshuva? #1562574jakobParticipantIf a person doesn’t have a way to return the stolen money either because he doesn’t know who it belongs to or another reason then the seforim say he should do community service work so that whoever he stole it from will gain from his work and it will be like his pay
Or he can give it to tzedaka and Hashem Has A Way For It Get Back To The Person He Stole It from
July 22, 2018 8:00 am at 8:00 am in reply to: Relating the Tisha B’av message from Hashem in Today’s generation #1562572jakobParticipantBump
jakobParticipanthow about sending your friend or family member a birthday card for the mitzva of making someone happy & to let them know that your thinking of them, thus raising their self-esteem & self-image letting them know they mean alot to you
jakobParticipantSome of the card I have saved in a pile are from over 10 years ago, they really bring back happy memories and friends or family who value you nd it really doesn’t take up a lot of space. If I ever go back to them it’s like taking out an old photo album of a few special events or a big family Simcha.
jakobParticipantHappy anniversary Mr. CR big party at rekosherized Starbucks coffee in Brooklyn and Jerusalem. See everyone at the party.
jakobParticipantAll news media is fake news.
Lets face reality and learn how media runs. ALL MEDIA NEWS from websites to newspapers etc…-HAVE AN AGENDA yes even Jewish media (who are the role models and should really be %100 honest true news) have an AGENDA and yes money talks so if you pay them gelt….. They will make the most dishonest corrupt person/company (like crooked hillary) sound honest and make it into a nice story. And IT WORKS THE SAME VICE VERSA.
Welcome to the dishonest and corrupt world where your human psychological mind (yetzer hara) convinces the most frum person that he can do something even though he knows that it’s pure stealing.
Ashamed to be living in such a dishonest and corrupt generation
jakobParticipantGuess in today’s day of a technological world people don’t get cards anymore. Its all a 5 second text or email etc….
July 9, 2018 8:58 am at 8:58 am in reply to: Baltimores chassidish community is growing by leaps and bounds!!!! #1554145jakobParticipantYou think Baltimore is growing chasidish quick? Try Lakewood. Entire large development neighborhoods there are being built as satmar, belz, slonim, etc…. With hundreds of houses each thus turning Lakewood into Brooklyn NJ and bringing the beeping and crazy driving straight from Brooklyn NY.
jakobParticipantDoing chessed
Making others happy. Makes me happy
jakobParticipant“It is a real shame how many Jews we lost and are constantly losing due to intermarriages and abandonment of Judaism.”
You can thank your Jewish brother Mark Zuckerberg owner of Facebook who has caused thousands upon thousands of intermarriages and divorces
jakobParticipantFireworks have now. Become legal in the state of New Jersey
jakobParticipantFinancially
If you made 2 separate accounts of all the expenses from Birth to marriage 1 for your son and other for your daughter which one would come out higher and by how much? With the high expenses each one has at specific times.
jakobParticipantSeatbelts save lives but they make your driving trip uncomfortable and the need to tie yourself and your family up each time you get in the car
June 26, 2018 8:51 pm at 8:51 pm in reply to: What does it say if the Umos haolom like our music? #1547022jakobParticipantAlmost all of our Jewish songs today come straight from the goyim with the same goyish team -that affects a person’s neshama with just changing the words to Jewish words.
jakobParticipantLook in Lakewood advertising book called masa umatan, it is loaded with house rentals of all sizes including apartments. They also have rooms for rent if you want just a room for yourself. But if you want an apt. With friends you. Should find an apartment and then YOU should put a classified ad of looking for roommates to rent apt. Together with me.
Hatzlacha
jakobParticipantLive through life with one value on spending money and always be happy no matter how tight or rich you are in money.
“GET WHAT YOU NEED NOT WHAT YOU WANT”
don’t own 3 cars and 3 vacations a year and then be shocked when a person is broke and in dept C”V wake up to reality and face the issues a person has. Yes making a wedding and school tuition is a lot of money. So wife/husband we are running right and cannot afford to send our kids to camp or go on our usual summer vacation this year etc….. Be positive at least our child is getting married Boruch Hashem
jakobParticipantDon’t lease. You pay more each month and end up with nothing at the end.
Of you can’t afford a used car then save up money for a few months until you can afford it otherwise but it with financing which is still costly but much better then leasing a car and ending up with nothing
Hatzlacha
Note: sure buying a home cost tons and requires a mortgage which accounting says at the end of 30 years a person pays approximately DOUBLE the amount he bought the house for.
So if you don’t NEED to buy a house now it might be wiser to save up money and wait longer and then when you need it have more then the minimum %20 required to buy the house
Versus buying now as a young new couple with just the minimum needed to close and pay DOUBLE what the house is bought for.Hatzlach
jakobParticipantSpend your money as you like but don’t show it off to people how you spent it,lest it cause a ayin hara or cause it to be taken away from you by Hashem
jakobParticipantWatching the suffering in klal Yisroel get worse and worse as we continue to remain in denial and don’t start doing teshuva
jakobParticipantWith everything that was already mentioned and the thousands more not mentioned yet , and a world today of technology, our thanks to Hashem for all this should be unlimited. Sure it is human nature to take things for granted, stop using something from this amazing wonderful world that Hashem created for JUST ONE HOUR AT A TIME YOU NEED IT and then go use it and your thanks to Hashem will be unlimited and you will also be rewarded with seeing the beauty and amazement of the product that you didn’t realize until now.
