Major Economic Conference for Haredi Public Sells Out VIP Tickets

The "Plus Minus 2" economic conference, billed as the largest of its kind for the Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) public, is set to open Wednesday evening at the Binyanei Ha'uma convention center in Jerusalem. Organizers report a surge in registrations, with all VIP tickets, offering front-row seating and access to panel guests, having sold out days ago. "Silver" tickets, which provided second-row seating, have also been snapped up, leaving only a limited number of regular tickets available. "Seating in the hall is based on registration order, first come, first served," explained the organizers. "Those who register today will sit closer than those who wait until the last minute. And those planning to come and buy a ticket at the entrance should know there will be no sales at the door."

The conference, organized by Fishel Rosenfeld, founder of Plus Minus, in collaboration with the Hazira community and the Urban Renewal Association, follows a successful first event that drew 670 attendees. This year's event will span approximately six hours, beginning with a premium dinner and concluding with evening prayers. The program features prominent figures from the Israeli capital market, including Tamir Hershkovitz from Ayalon, Zvi Stepek from Meitav, and Amir Eyal from Infinity. Tamir Mandobski, author of "Investments for the Lazy," will launch and sign his new book, "Marrying with Honor," at the event.

Two separate panels will focus on the real estate market, one addressing the Haredi housing market, moderated by Yakov Reinitz, and another on urban renewal, moderated by Moshe Hershler, who will also host the entire evening. Mental coach Eitan Azaria will deliver a one-hour lecture on resilience and economic consciousness. A live recording of Dudi Keppler's podcast, "Inspiration LIVE," is anticipated to be a highlight, during which Fishel Rosenfeld will publicly share his personal story and his journey to becoming a financial advisor who has assisted over a thousand families.

The conference will also launch "Expert Hive," a network of professionals in insurance, pensions, mortgages, domestic and international real estate, financial consulting, and income enhancement, operating under a strict ethical code. Experts will analyze real family cases live, and attendees can receive free initial consultations at the Hive's on-site complex. Participants will receive exclusive benefits, including significant discounts on financial guidance and free monthly access to the Plus Minus platform. The conference is open to men and women with separate seating, and a couple's ticket offers a 20% discount. Each ticket purchaser will receive a complimentary copy of the book "The Cultivator."
