    Over 50 hasn’t anything to do with anything. It’s how Torah Judaism was 100, 200, 300, etc. years ago.

    And what if I would have to give up my vacation days that I was hoping to save for my annual vacation (i.e. to the Grand Canyon) in order to take off on Chol Hamoed. Do I still have to use my vacation days for C”H?

    Sam: Without ones own Sukkah, the chumra of always eating and drinking everything in the Sukkah is inapplicable?
