Евреи и деньги: откуда появился главный мировой стереотип. Дмитрий Марьясис о мифах, Торе и бизнесе

Why have Jews been associated with money for centuries? Is it true that Judaism encourages wealth? Where did the stereotype of "Jews and finance" come from, and why has it proven so persistent? In the new episode of Sheinkin40, we host economist and Israel researcher Dmitry Maryasis. We discussed the Torah, the Talmud, usury, capitalism, bankers, bills of exchange, Wall Street, Israel, and the attitude toward money in Jewish culture. This conversation is not only about history but also about the present: why Israelis are comfortable with debt, how Judaism views wealth, and why financial literacy has been an important part of Jewish tradition.
