Oy oy, how many are gone is just a 2 short years!! R Nosson Tzvi, R Chaim, maybe one or two others!!
So bottom line is that we have 70 gedolim signing on some generic letter saying we’ve got to take care of our daughters. People should not feel stigmatized by going out with someone close in age. Shadchanim should work for older girls and not just take the easy route with the 19 year olds.
This has absolutely nothing to do with the new game changing initiative, or whatever they’re calling it this week. That is something cooked up by some individuals and an auditing firm, and after 3 months, has the haskama of 2 of the unrelated 70, and 7 other shul rabbanim. Quadrupling and more of shadchanus fees, plus demanding that it be paid up front to even get your name on the list, does NOT have the blessing of Gedolei Yisroel!! Any comment by AZ or anyone else insinuating that it does is false.
That is the position as stated in Nasi’s unofficial press releases through the coffeeroom and their designated commenter here. Please everyone wait three weeks, and the uproar will cause a further update in Nasi’s unofficial positions to be once again released in a press release to the CR.
