Summary
In this episode of Kosher Money, we explore the topic of making aliyah and the financial implications of moving to Israel. Our guest, Yaakov Ehrenkranz, a financial advisor who specializes in helping new and veteran olim adjust to the financial reality in Israel, provides us with valuable insights into the costs, opportunities, and challenges of making aliyah.
Aliyah is a Hebrew term that refers to the act of Jewish people immigrating to Israel, either for religious or cultural reasons. The term aliyah literally means "ascending" or "going up," and it is used to signify the return of Jews to their ancestral homeland.
Making aliyah involves a significant life change, as it often involves leaving behind one's home country and adapting to a new culture, language, and way of life in Israel.
