Making and managing money isn’t easy—especially when life throws big expenses like tuition, groceries, and student loans your way. For many Orthodox Jewish families, the question isn’t just about budgeting, but also about earning enough to meet the demands of their unique lifestyle.
In this episode, Stacey Zrihen, a seasoned financial coach, unpacks the findings from Kosher Money’s survey of over 3,000 Orthodox Jews. How much do Orthodox Jews really earn? What’s the financial reality behind the numbers? Stacey and Eli dive into the data to explore income levels, community spending habits, stress factors and more.
But it’s not all struggle—Stacey offers practical strategies for making the most of what you have. From creating a personalized budget to cutting unnecessary costs, this conversation highlights how small, intentional changes can make a big difference.
The message is clear: You’re not alone, and no matter your starting point, there’s a way to build a brighter financial future. Whether it’s managing tuition costs, navigating the emotional side of money, or figuring out how to save more, this episode will leave you inspired and empowered to take control of your finances.
