Howdy and welcome to the Forum.
I got curious about this claim, so after a bit of creative googling I found it is owned by ethical capital partners, run by Rocco Meliambro. That is definitely an Italian name, not a Jewish name.
Where does the Jewish owner come in?
Also, will you take responsibility if somebody finds "who owns PornHub?" in my search history and starts asking a lot of questions?

Saying all Jews in the US are wealthy may not be fully accurate. That being said, there are historical precedents that lead to their success in certain professions.
After the fourth century, people identified as "Jews" were barred from many common professions. This included being banned from the Guilds where many workers and artisans earned their livelihood. Two fields that were open to them included small business and finance. They were successful at both. (Their success in business led to Kristallnacht in Germany, which began exactly 87 years ago today in 1938). Their success was deeply resented throughout Europe.
Their success in finance was equally spectacular. Hardly a King or a Kingdom existed during the inquisition that did not rely of the financial skills of Jewish advisors. This too was deeply resented then, and remains so today.

Thanks for this Bible verse. Yes, it is true. I searched it up..
Proverbs 13:22, which says:
“A good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children, but the sinner’s wealth is laid up for the righteous.”
This verse encourages wise stewardship and the idea of passing on blessings, whether material or moral, to future generations. It emphasizes the value of responsible planning and the benefits that come from living righteously, not just for oneself but for one’s family line.

So they are blessed and Christians are what exactly?
Oh right we are still second class citizens in the dispensationalist paradigm.
.... well we do have all those FALSE prosperity teachers grifting and living high on the hog, they must extremely blessed as well, maybe just a cut above all the other Christians in the world who are persecuted and martyred every day around the world.
So our take away is God blesses modern day Jews and False teachers.
