so Hashem tells us that if you look for
me you'll find me in the book of
Deuteronomy chapter 4 he says if you
look for me you'll find me if you look
for me with all of your heart and all of
your
soul if someone really is looking for
the truth a is going to make sure you
find it but you can't look for it like
you look for a second pair of keys you
look five minutes you didn't find no C
just use the first one he said if you
look for me with all of your heart and
all of your soul if you're really
looking for the truth you'll find me he
says
but he also says in the Torah that when
we don't look for
him if you treat him with
casualness you like he's one of your
friends from the bar you call him not
Call Him worship Him not worship him
listen to him not listen to him like
could do do whatever you
want then we get
punished twice one for not doing and one
for treating him like he's one of our
friends this is both
in so never think that I'm making up
anything that I'm telling you I bring
all these books to every lecture because
number one I really don't know what I'm
going to say before the lecture so I'm
hoping the books are going to give me
some and number two usually people have
questions and say oh really where's that
written so I can give him book and show
them look don't think that I that I said
it God said it it's written in a book I
I wasn't hasem didn't ask me for
permission before he wrote these books
books
so when I treated Hashem with casualness
and I said that the business world was a
dominating force in my life eventually
the time came for Hashem to come to me
and wake me up and a wake up it was s
years of fighting for my
life both healthwise Financial wise and
everything else in between the CDs
behind you this CD number one and CD
number two from Wall Street to the
Western Wall tell the story on CD number
two it's the first track it's a a very
popular lecture very motivating to a lot
of people but also has a lot of M and a
lot of lessons we could all apply to our
life whether it's somebody fighting a
Health Battle somebody having problems
witha somebody having problems with
financial issues somebody into
married it applies so many different
ways because put us to a nice special
customized G in this world that we were
able to experience many nice things but
eventually had mercy on us and he woke
us up and we saw the truth and you see
us today so once I saw the truth
everything became
meaningless and that's the one thing
that's the one thing that people have a
hard time understanding when they asked
me wait a minute you were making so much
money on Wall Street you were doing this
you were doing that that why don't you
stay on Wall Street okay be religious
keep Shabbat keep mitv but go back to
making You2 $300,000 a month what are
you going what do you have to give
lectures for free for and live
off
why there's two reasons first reason is
when you really see the truth for
exactly what it is you see aem's t for
exactly what it is at least at my level
that is not very high but for where I
stand
from my perspective everything is
meaningless all the money in the world
is meaningless all the desires in the
world are meaningless everything is
meaningless yes you still have to eat
you still have to drink you still have
to live in this world but the world that
I lived in the financial world the stock
market the CNBC the Bloomberg the fame
the fortune all that stuff became
officially meaningless
overnight because so it's material okay
so one going to invest another 70 years
in his
money in his and the employees and the
friends and the you know enemies and the
politics and all this stuff for what I
can't take any of it eventually you go
everybody every one of us is going to
become dust the worms are going to eat
us the maggots are going to take
whatever is left the real us the goes to
the real
world you can't take the money with you
can't take the car with you you can't
take the apartment on a 35th floor for
$3.5 million with you you can't stays
here so I figured what am I going to
invest in this stuff that I can't take
with me so it became meaningless second
reason is that each one of us has a gift
hem gave me a gift of God he gave me the
ability to speak and think a little bit
differently and I also like to argue so
these are a good combination for giving
lectures so I the way I looked at it and
my ra told me this as well both rim and
from Jerusalem and ra which I'm sure
many of you
knowem needs more Jews businessmen he
has plenty this doesn't mean that
businessmen are bad we need businessmen
to fund all of
this but we don't have enough people
telling the truth so I threw my hat into
the equation and I hope that gives me to
help people do in the last couple years
hundreds of people have been doing CH
converting doing all types of things
people that came to me atheist had
Orthodox weddings eight months later
with with no no nothing no like 100%
like a f person you would think this
person is from from
birth other people converting other
people becoming much more religious one
guy wanted to force his wife to have an
abortion a few months later he's
fulltime in
a full time in a has nothing to do with
me though it's not me don't think it's
me don't give me the credit so this T
you read it you do the same thing
same Torah just that no one threes the
whole Torah you've just experienced
