Financial Prosperity For All People

By Elizabeth Jones


"There is a movement in many American religious circles to express ancient truths in new ways; to relay something time-honored in a more modern parlance, if you will", says Celso Cukierkorn, Author of The Bestselling Secrets of Jewish Wealth Revealed!.

Indeed, his appeal to evangelicals is apparent. Just take a glance at his website or his book and you will quickly see that many of his areas of expertise overlap with those of Dave Ramsey. Rabbi Celso is zealous in his efforts to help his readers master their debt, to liberate them from their bondage to credit card companies and show them how best to put their money to work for them.

Rabbi Celso comes from a rabbinic line that goes back 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 Jews, 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. Gentiles deserve to know what we know about money and I'm going to be the person to tell them," said Rabbi Celso.

The People's Rabbi teaches from a rich tradition, yet he believes that this tradition speaks to everyone, from all faiths and backgrounds, about how to thrive in choppy economic waters.

Actually, his evangelical readers seem just as enthused over his teachings as his Jewish ones. One Amazon review suggests that Rabbi Celso's appeal is in his ability to lean on a Jewish understanding of financial responsibility, but illuminate it in a way that connects with the non-Jewish person as well; the reviewer notes that the rabbi seems to excel at providing the insight needed for "the reader, from any religious background, to understand the Jewish perspective on investment and financial well-being." Another 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] distills the economic wisdom of thousands of years into a user-friendly compendium for contemporary life."
