Rabbi Helps Christians to Get Finances In Order

By Elizabeth Jones


There is no question that religious tradition can teach us the very deepest values,"timeless tools" as Rabbi Celso calls them. "These tools were here before we got here and will be here after we are all gone, so we might as well use them," says Rabbi Celso Cukierkorn Author of The Bestselling Secrets of Jewish Wealth Revealed!



"The People's Rabbi", as he is known, speaks in a such a way that is simple to comprehend, but also using history and humor all tempered with a lot of good advice. Often he is called the new Dave Ramsey and it is no coincidence that Dave Ramsey is an Evangelical the same way hundreds of thousands of people flock to hear him at a live event.

And that's not insignificant. Dave Ramsey is an evangelical, as are many of his readers and radio listeners. Rabbi Celso-author of the bestselling Secrets of Jewish Wealth Revealed-comes from a rabbinic line that spans 700 years, and his work draws on thousands of years of Jewish wisdom. Yet, Rabbi Celso knows that real wisdom isn't just applicable to one people group, but to everyone; perhaps this is why his book has found broad appeal, and why he frequently finds himself in the position of teaching evangelical Christians about healthy financial practices.

Maybe that's why he's known as "The People's Rabbi" - his teaching is based on a rich tradition, yet it speaks to everyone, from all faiths and backgrounds, about how to thrive in choppy economic waters.

One of his readers, in a review posted to Amazon.com, summarizes the wide-ranging appeal of Rabbi Celso this way: "[Secrets of Jewish Wealth Revealed] This book is a "gem". It distills the economic wisdom of thousands of years into a user friendly compendium for contemporary life. I was expecting a 'dry' work on money management, but discovered an easy, entertaining read. This is a very instructive work that deserves to become a classic in personal financial management. Cukierkorn's work is infused with thousands of years of Jewish wisdom which he has made superbly accessible to anyone who needs help in managing their money and improving their life." And yet, his teaching style, and his approach to presenting centuries-old financial wisdom in a modern setting, is distinctly his own. As financial consultant and Celso enthusiast Joseph Stango puts it, The People's Rabbi brings "a perfect blend of financial advice, real-life humor, and biblical wisdom."
