Living Lchaim

Money plays a central role in the life of an Orthodox Jew, not just practically but spiritually. From the costs of Jewish education and kosher living to the deeper meaning of earning and spending in alignment with Torah values, financial challenges are as spiritual as they are practical.

Kosher Money, an original Living Lchaim podcast, dives into the intersection of Judaism and finance. Host Eli Langer, former CNBC Social Media Producer and CEO of Harvesting Media, leads thought-provoking conversations with experts on how to navigate money matters with wisdom and faith.

Kosher Money

In this episode, you’ll hear the stories of people who finally got their budget under control, but are still staring at tens of thousands in old debt they can’t shake.

Debt advisor David Siegel explains the tough options left on the table: lowering interest through programs, negotiating settlements, or, when nothing else works, starting fresh with bankruptcy.

Money Expert Reveals How to Eliminate Debt

In this episode, you’ll hear how Dovid Lichtenstein went from selling encyclopedias door to door to owning billions in real estate, and why he tore up a food stamp application instead of playing it safe.

Want to build wealth and keep your soul intact? Let’s get into it.

(And yes, he actually paid off a 100 million dollar personal debt. With one check.)

19 Side Hustles to Make More Money

Most people think money is about math. But after 90-plus episodes of Kosher Money, I’ve learned it’s really about behavior. 

In this solo episode, we slow down and ask the questions most people never do. What is money actually for? Why do so many smart, capable people still feel broke? And how do you build real wealth without chasing every shiny object?

This episode explores the patterns behind financial stress, lifestyle creep, and the quiet pressure to keep up. We talk about budgeting, not as restriction, but as clarity. About debt, not as failure, but as a weight people carry in silence. And we explore why investing even small amounts can lead to big shifts in confidence and peace of mind.

You’ll also hear why growing your income doesn’t help if your lifestyle grows faster. Why the richest people often live the simplest lives. And why giving when you have a little is what prepares you to give when you have a lot. 

These are lessons drawn from real guests, real stories, and the thinking of people like Morgan Housel who remind us that money is more about how you behave than how much you know.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, anxious, or just curious about how to make better choices with money, this episode is for you. Take a breath. Press play. Let’s rethink what money really means.

Eli Riesel was a successful real estate developer who left his high-powered career to fully immerse himself in Torah learning, seeking deeper meaning and fulfillment. Despite achieving spiritual peace, Rabbi Eli was later indicted for bank fraud linked to his past business dealings and faced over 300 years in prison but refused to testify against others. His story is one of radical transformation, unwavering faith, and the pursuit of true purpose over material success.

40 Years of Business Knowledge in 1 Hour, 19 Minutes

In this jaw-dropping and soul-stirring episode, Jeff Allen shares how he went from a regular father fighting for his son’s life to the winner of MrBeast’s $10 million Beast Games. But this isn’t just a story about money. It’s about purpose, prayer, and the unshakable belief that Hashem can turn anything—even a game show—into a divine mission. After discovering that his son Lucas has a rare brain disorder with no cure, Jeff devoted his life to raising awareness and funding research. Winning Beast Games wasn’t about fame, it was about giving his son, and others like him, a fighting chance. 🙏 How did Jeff get through 100+ hours of psychological warfare to win $10M? 🧒 What does a father do when $10 million might save his son’s life?🕊️ What made him almost walk away from it all—midway through the competition? 💸 Would he risk it all for a shot at $100 million?🧠 What is Creatine Transport Deficiency—and why has no one heard of it? 🎮 What really goes on behind the scenes of the biggest game show ever? This episode will leave you in awe of what a father’s love and divine intervention can truly achieve.• Donate to the fundraiser for Lucas here.

How I Really Won $10 MILLION from Mr. Beast | Winner of Beast Games

Picture this: you’ve been a Rabbi at a Long Island synagogue for over 37 years and it’s time to retire. You don’t have much money to retire on - just $50,000, but it’s enough.

You’ve never really invested money before, though in a relatively short amount of time, you turn that $50,000 into…$7 million.

What would you do with the cash? How would your life change? 

What if you then lost it all in a flash? Which emotions would you feel on this financial roller-coaster? Would you come out of it in one piece? Would you come out of it a better person?

Join Rabbi Benjamin Blech for the ride of your life in our newest Kosher Money episode.
