Back in 1950 Yemenite Jews arriving in Israel saw water faucets and thought they create water. They knew nothing of the invisible infrastructure of pipes and pumps that made water gush out of the faucet. Similarly there is invisible spiritual infrastructure that makes modern commerce possible. Finding food in the supermarket reliably every day; assuming the light will come on when you flick the wall switch; reaching someone on the other side of the world from your mobile phone; knowing that when you go through an intersection on a green light you won't be T-boned by an 18-wheeler barelling through against a red light. How strangers will happily provide what other strangers want. All through the magic of money. When government integrity goes, the judicial system goes, crime comes, and the economy tanks. See the rules here  https://www.wehappywarriors.com/book-of-ruth-free-lesson-signup Use code RUTH15 What happens when five individual farmers working for themselves form a co-op and start collaborating.

Co-hosted with Susan Lapin. If you cannot play tennis, your life can still be good. If you can't sing, play a musical instrument, or tell jokes, your life can still be wonderful. But there are five distinct things that are vital for every successful and happy life. What is more, you cannot have 3 out of the 5. It's all five or nothing. In a way, these five things make up an indivisible totality of good living. A good way of thinking of them is as your life's operating system. Everything you do, achieve and enjoy rests on the foundation of a smoothly-running operating system.  We talk of identifying these five things and acquiring them.  We reveal useful tips, tools, and techniques that we have published in our new book, The Holistic You. Read about it here  https://a.co/d/24XdFHh What is the difference between electric cars and polyamorous living arrangements? Does making money mean the same to women as it does to men? Are there male female relationships that are 100% non-romantic; purely business or social? Discover how the world REALLY works.

Why hate the Jews? The honest, true, and deeply uncomfortable explanation for anti-Semitism. Two nations on one island: Haiti is desperate and hopeless. The Dominican Republic is vibrant and successful. What is the difference? Whenever you hear concern about "The Children" know that you are being powerfully and emotionally manipulated for political purposes. More Jews had to leave Arab lands than Arabs had to leave Israel in 1948. Why are Arab refugees treated differently from all other refugees in the world? The fallacy of proportionality. Someone is beating up your wife and kid, careful now, make sure your response is proportional. Really? Where did this rubbish doctrine come from? Loving those you give to rather than those who give to you. Isn't compassion always a desirable characteristic?

I prefer a sacred Christmas to a secular Christmas. Secularism is not just a fair way to organize a pluralistic society. It exerts a malign influence on civilization. In ways you can't imagine.  A guy is really unhappy because his wife lunches with a male colleague a couple of times a week. Is his bank account relevant to this story?  Why platonic friendships between men and women between the ages of 15 and 70 never work. Is an emotional affair a thing? What should the unhappy guy do? Remember Mel Gibson's Braveheart? It explains one of the most important aspects of Chanuka. What were you doing between the ages of 13 and 23? Is it time for you to start making only wise decisions in the important areas of your life? If so, read this  https://a.co/d/cX2lpPq Do you want your spiritual schematic to be about abundance or shortage? There are real life consequences to how you answer that question. Why communism hates both marriage and private property. Other secrets about the interactions between marriage and money.
