Description
Today’s Talmud page, Bava Metzia 118, raises the question of whether or not it is permissible to pay someone in a currency other than cash. Hudson Leibovitz, age 10, is grappling with this question himself now that he has an allowance, and he joins us to discus the merits of a Starbucks gift card and the freedom of having a few dollars in his pocket. Is it better to receive biggish gifts or buy them yourself with your own money? Listen and find out.
