My Rabbi Told Me to Test Hashem. I Did With Pledging $100,000

Five years ago, I left my family business. I had nothing but Hashem to rely on. My Rabbi was used to visiting me in a fancy board room to pledge me for the upcoming year. That year was different. I was alone in a cheap office, on a $10 chair from Walmart and a plastic folding desk.

Despite the demotion in my economic status, my Rabbi asked me to pledge 2X what I did the year before. I thought he was crazy.

He shared with me words from the Lubavitcher Rebbe that Hashem decides on Rosh Hashana (the first day of the new year) how much a person will make. He told me, “you’re not allowed to test Hashem with anything, except for one thing, charity.”

Although I was petrified, I agreed to the challenge.

In my first year in business, I saw miracle after miracle. Ever since then I have been pledging the amount I want to give before the new year begins. Every year I’ve increased, and every year I see the miracles increase.

Why am I telling you this?

The whole year, I make videos giving business tips. If you don’t listen to, or do anything I tell you besides make a big pledge to charity right now, it will be enough. Charity is like rocket fuel for making money.

What if you don’t have the money? That’s the whole point. You are deciding through your pledge how much you will make this year. Hashem has to grant you 5-10x the amount you give. You shouldn’t be reckless, but you should go beyond what feels normal.

So go ahead, send a message to your local charity before the new year and make a pledge. Break it up into monthly payments. Like many already do, you will thank me later.

And when you see the blessings unfold, please tell others about it.
