Reply To: Is the frum “business/economic model” sustainable?

To common saychel: The frum lifestyle by which you live is 80 years old? Chasidism as taught by the Baal Shem Tov is less than 300 years old. The Torah is about 3,000 years old. It has survived many interpretations, not to mention that its Chosen have survived many murderous opponents, nominally far more powerful that the small bundle of the Chosen. I have every confidence that the Torah will survive as long as Hashem wants it too. As for the guys in black hats and suits, especially on hot summer days, well, I am not so sure about their survival.

Speaking of which: Take a look at wedding albums that are more than 40 years old. The black hats were smaller then. Maybe you can save a few bucks by buying a $50 fedora than a $350 Borsalino. And put the savings toward a nice tan suit for summer.
