uh in regards to male you're allowed to
split it to as many places as you want
uh it doesn't have to go to one place uh
but uh there's a few things that you
need to know about it number one m is
after necessary expenses uh which means
so for example if you make
$1,000 and you have $900 $900 worth of
actual real expenses like rent food you
know not a vacation to the Bahamas like
real expenses that you need necessary
expenses then you have left is the $100
and from that you give the M sale you
give the 10% which means $10 obviously
if the numbers grow it's the same thing
percentage wise um so first off need to
know that my sale needs to be um based
on the net amount that you have left uh
after necessary expenses and not the
gross uh this would also answer the
question of whether you're allowed to
give male based on money you haven't
made yet because if you haven't made it
yet
number one how do you know you're
definitely going to make it and number
two how do you know what the expenses
are going to be at the time that you
make it you may make let's say $10,000
but you know Shalom there may be $88,000
of unexpected expenses that particular
month that you know put you in a uh
situation that's very different than
what you thought originally so you only
pay male or you uh you um uh put them on
sale towards um after after you know
money that's actually made uh another
thing is is that it has to be towards
places that you are familiar with not
just random places where you're hoping
for the best you have to do at least
some type of checking uh you know of
where you're actually donating this
money uh and this is similar to any
investment if you were going to invest
into a building you'd obviously in you
know you'd obviously do an inspection to
see if the building's Foundation is
going to hold up for another 20 30 40 50
years or the place is corrupt and 3 days
after you buy itom the thing collapses
so you obviously you're going to
investigate same thing you do if you
invest into a company whether it's a
public company like a stock or you
invest into a private company that you
know Private Business you're going to
look at the books you're going to look
and find out what's going on behind the
wheels you're going to see if there's
red flag so you're going to because it's
a big investment right so same concept
with m m doesn't necessarily matter what
the investment is you have to do some
type of investigation obviously the
bigger the investment the bigger the
investigation should be but it's all
relative you know a ,000 to you may be a
very big investment uh whereas a $1000
to you know someone that's a
multi-millionaire is not a big
investment but both of you are obligated
to do some type of investigation and not
just put it purely on faith you have to
do some type of investigation you don't
necessarily need to know you know what
the CEO is doing on the weekends just
like you don't necessarily need to know
what the uh rabbis hobbies are but you
need to obviously know something where
is this money going is it going to pay
for a mercedesbenz or is it going for
kiru and you know bringing Amel back to
Hashem you know helping righteous
converts and things of that nature or if
it's a besset if the besset is really
you know bringing real rabbis to the
place or is it just bringing people that
are politically correct and poisoning
the people with nonsense so you have to
make sure you know where this money is
going uh last but not least is you also
have to look at it as an investment
which is where is the biggest investment
where will you get the most amount of
reward if you invest into a thing that's
a onetime mitvah for example a uh
holiday party great you know you made a
holiday party maybe you got a few mitv
out of it some people that made as a
result of your party they made a few on
this holiday party for eating the food
great it's wonderful you spent th000
10,000 $100,000 doesn't really make a
difference on the other hand um you know
if you invest into something that's more
to do with bringing people to Torah
whether it's a that's learning T day and
night an that's learning in a or or
itself or you're actually uh you know
investing into a k organizations you
know an organization or a rabbi that's
specifically focused on
bringing back to AEM uh those have
endless endless reward because every
single Mitzvah that comes out of those
people goes into your account so whereas
in Hanukah party or a porin party or I
don't know some party it's all wonderful
but I don't know maybe you're going to
get two three four five let's say you
know it's the greatest party ever you
got a 100 mitv whereas if you go into a
rabbi that's helping people do chuva one
guy that actually did chuva becomes a
sadik his whole life every single
Mitzvah the guy does every day is going
to go to your account and every Mitzvah
he influences will go to your account so
if that guy just does basic level mitv
of at least 100 a day like a normal Jew
then you have yourself a lot of mitv you
know a lot more mitv in one day then
you're ever going to get in a party and
this is not necessarily for
self-interest I'm not just saying that
you should just donate to my
organization you could donate to RAB
mra's organization rabi alona's
organization you know and other
organization that you may be familiar
with that actually do real kiru work or
perhaps real K that actually teaches
real tah if you don't know anyone if you
don't know you don't know you want me to
help you with it I'm more than happy to
if you know somebody already that's
serious about Tora by all means give it
to them the point being is that you have
to look at your and any money that you
give that as an investment when you look
at it as an investment you're going to
treat it more carefully and you're going
to think twice before you write that
check for wanting to bring more Tor to
the world and being conscious of all of
hm's mitv May hasem bless you and your
children and every single person that
you give to actually has the Merit to
generate mitv for you for the rest of
your life C
