bpt,
Her side = 10% of the ring or $500, whichever is greater.
His side = Depends:
* Working boy? A flat $500
* Full time kollel? 20% of the the kallah’s estimated yearly earnings or $1,000 whichever is greater.
Ive never heard ridiculous figures like that in my life. Hes not serious! Or, Im starting to think bpt, isnt a b oro p ark t atty after all. No way!!! Ive been living in BP for almost half a century and these figures arent bp figures!!! The wealthy give more, the not wealthy give less, but only the very hard up or BT’s/Gerim give below $1,000, because they dont have parents paying for them.
