Rabbi Krohn’s “new idea” is not new- 30 years ago I found that I could only go out with women older thatn me- and in fact, my wife is older than me. BA ck in Europe, in the 1890’s my grandfather (ztz”L) also married an oldr woman, my grandmother a”h. While my wife is 2 years older than me, my babba was at least 5 years older than my zeide! The problem is MONEY. NASI seeks to extort BIG Money from those girls who are having difficulty finding a shidduch. Teh Rebbe’s convince the Bochrim that they are worth Thousands of Doallars not to take achrayis for the Kesuvos they are giving their wives.
When an acqauintance asked NASI where they would get the money for the program, NASI answered- doesn’ tthe girl work? doesn’t she have money in the bank? My daughter works, she has money in the bank. BUT Its for her and her eventual shidduch to liveo on- not for the Shadcahn to live on! do you realize that a 24year old who buys into
Nasi’S SCOM WOU;LD BE GIVING UP 3-4 MONTHS RENT TO JUST GET A SHIDDUCH?
