   But Nima, simply having money, ceremonial "positions" in a family company, and   
   places to live is not "money earned from honest labor". That's you just being   
   a privileged kid.

   First of all, we have yet another bit of projection there. _My_ ChaBa"D   
   friends on the Gold Coast? As a disclaimer, I'm not casting aspersions on   
   anyone visiting a ChaBa"D house, but what's at issue here is the projection.   
   Has anyone said they saw me or    
   my family visiting the ChaBa"D house in Surfers Paradise? No. Has anyone said   
   they saw Nima let a shliach wrap him in tefilin, and/or saw a relative of his   
   at precisely that ChaBa"D house? Heh. Well, let's just note that the last time   
   that subject came    
   up, Nima was quickly throwing out names of people he suspects saw such. So,   
   not my friends on the Gold Coast, but rather Nima's friends (remember: I have   
   yet to visit Gold Coast; Nima has a long history there).   
      
   Second, there was an attempt at a sort of tu quoque: even if ChaBa"Dniks in   
   the area somehow contributed to gentrification there, that does not exculpate   
   Nima's real estate flipping family from also having participated in that   
   process.
