ABOVE THE BOTTOM LINE

Integrity is one of the most difficult attributes to acquire, and one of the easiest to lose. Temptations abound, and the 'bottom line' of any transaction is viewed as what profit is to be made, regardless of its permissibility. These amusing, provocative, and often searing stories heighten our awareness of G-d’s aversion to the sin of deception, and teach us to rise above expediency and self-interest.
