The Jews in America have been truly blessed in terms of financial prosperity. What is the reason for this?
"Ashkenazim Jews" overall, consistently score two standard deviations above the mean on cognitive assessments.

In addition to all the reasons already given, God wants them to be wealthy as one of the ways of protecting them. A lot of money is put into Israel's military manpower and technology today to fend off their enemies successfully since its rebirth in 1948.

In WWII, a lot of Jewish money was used to help the Jews that the Lord wanted to survive to escape or hide in plain sight.

And all through the Jewish history of their diaspora, the wealth God blessed them with just helped so that the Jews never had to be economically dependent on any of the countries they settled in and allowed them to remain distinct and separate as God wanted them to.

This is a solid answer and it makes a lot of sense.

Howdy and welcome to the Forum.

I got curious about this claim, so after a bit of creative googling I found it is owned by ethical capital partners, run by Rocco Meliambro. That is definitely an Italian name, not a Jewish name.

Where does the Jewish owner come in?

Also, will you take responsibility if somebody finds "who owns PornHub?" in my search history and starts asking a lot of questions? :p
There are Italian Jews.

Maybe, instead of a paradox, one of the things you believe are not true.

Maybe the jews do not own everything.

Maybe you are being lied to by those with hatred.

Where many Jewish families do teach financial matters to their children....they aren't magic or a cabal of financial wizards. They teach their children sound financial principles. The difference between luxuries and necessities and WHY they are classified as such so that they do not impoverish themselves.

I’m not saying the own everything, but in the upper echelon of finance, Wall Street hedge funds…etc.. Federal reserve, etc, Goldman Sachs CeO, etc etc, top Hollywood producers, who owned the media companies and Newspapers.

Saying all Jews in the US are wealthy may not be fully accurate. That being said, there are historical precedents that lead to their success in certain professions.

After the fourth century, people identified as "Jews" were barred from many common professions. This included being banned from the Guilds where many workers and artisans earned their livelihood. Two fields that were open to them included small business and finance. They were successful at both. (Their success in business led to Kristallnacht in Germany, which began exactly 87 years ago today in 1938). Their success was deeply resented throughout Europe.

Their success in finance was equally spectacular. Hardly a King or a Kingdom existed during the inquisition that did not rely of the financial skills of Jewish advisors. This too was deeply resented then, and remains so today.

Jews value education, wealth, and inheritance. You will not find Jews in certain jobs. Other people/cultures who value education and wealth are also successful. Inheritance is big in Jewish culture; the Bible says grandparents should leave an inheritance to their grandchildren which Jews takes seriously.

Thanks for this Bible verse. Yes, it is true. I searched it up..

Proverbs 13:22, which says:

“A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, but the sinner’s wealth is laid up for the righteous.”

This verse encourages wise stewardship and the idea of passing on blessings, whether material or moral, to future generations. It emphasizes the value of responsible planning and the benefits that come from living righteously, not just for oneself but for one’s family line.

Result of Abraham blessing? Not hating at all, there has to be some secrets to be unlocked here.

Easy to be wealthy when you have other people giving you billions, and all you have to do is start a war to get the ball rolling, zelensky another example, a jew running a country who were fighting with the jews long before hitler was, now they are being paid back by sending them all to their deaths for revenge and money and land.

Say what now?!

So they are blessed and Christians are what exactly?

Oh right we are still second class citizens in the dispensationalist paradigm.

.... well we do have all those FALSE prosperity teachers grifting and living high on the hog, they must extremely blessed as well, maybe just a cut above all the other Christians in the world who are persecuted and martyred every day around the world.

So our take away is God blesses modern day Jews and False teachers.

Follow the money, I have not time to go over your findings, I checked this out,
and in doing so again, I see google has taken down a lot of information and
replaced it with less incriminating information regarding the owner of pornhub,
its easy to bury the truth when your people control the media.
Here we go again...

I worked for a Jewish family in Beverly Hills for 11 years, they were billionaires two times over so extremely wealthy, but even before they were wealthy, their parents were already very wealthy. That Said they’re very tight nit and very shrewd in terms of business. I do believe that God wants “them” to succeed so there’s an X factor beyond just hard work and valuing wealth and prosperity.
It;s really fascinating to me.[/QUOT]

When the jews left Egypt gold was given then whe ww2 happened the German also. They pay reparation to this day for the family members that were lost.

There's a difference between Christians and jews. Christian tend to live in poverty. I think the main difference is anyone that read and keeps The teachings of the Bible are wise.

The jews expert their children to memorize the Bible by the age of 12.

Well wealth and prosperity won't be much good to anyone when the Lord comes to judge.
Never the less, the jews are the wealthiest people on the planet, so why are Americans loosing billions of dollars sending it to Israel, easy one, greed for money.
Easy to have money when someone else pays the bills.
