A Lakewood resident could soon land himself a $1,000,000 prize – but he’s asking for your help.
Eli Sandhaus, a 22-year-old from Lakewood recently married, is a writer and video producer, as well as a public speaker. He entered into the competition looking for content creators, and awards the winner with $1,000,000 to help them promote their work.
Eli posted the following description on his page:
“I’m a 22-year-old Orthodox Jewish artist. I just played the lead role in an upcoming feature film called “The Raven of Baltimore City”, I published a book called “I Am You” by L.E. Santos, was the host of the podcast “Three Jews Walk Into A Podcast…”, and I spoke in front of like 1,500 people about having OCD. With $1,000,000 I would make feature films, publish books, and help people.”
2000 people entered the competition, and Eli is one of approximately 50 people who made it to the semi-finals. One of four finalists will be chosen as the winner by a panel of judges.
In order to move into the finals, Eli needs votes.
You can help him by voting on his page here before 8:59 PM on Monday.
How many votes was it at when it was posted on TLS? At the time of my vote it was at around 900. At the time of this comment writing, it’s at 1.7k.
MKY! Helping another yid out!
When we posted it, he was at 682 votes 🙂
He is now in the finals, where he has about 460 votes compared with a leader who has over 11,000 votes.
You might want to repost this if you care.
Now its at 1926!
Why we helping produce a movie? or someone who does?
Lo zu Darko Shel Torah
Where can I see/read his stuff so I can vote?
Has an Odom Chashuv endorsed this project? I would need more details before I support this.
Has an Odom Chashuv endorsed your casual internet usage? I’m going to need more details before we continue this conversation.
Good morning
Chodesh Tov to everyone–
You have a good sense of humor.
Hashem should protect all of us from a world that is constantly sinking.
You have my vote if you commit to 5 minutes/day of real learning on a Toiredige topic.
Do they have paper ballots?
Ah we meet again Mr. Ploni. While I normally respect people who speak like you, the genuine ones don’t hang out on internet comment pages. Ergo, you are a faker! Once again, your hypocracy is truly astounding! I’ve been seeing so much of your “holier than thou” in the TLS comments, it’s kind of gross.
Are you really certain that he is a faker???
Didn’t it happen to you many times that someone accused you of some type of small wrong doing and in truth, if that guy truly knew the entire picture, he would run away from you in total shame, never to return or make any more comments?
How do you meet again if you yourself are not hanging out on the Internet? BTW. I only read TLS for the comments. Mostly ridiculous and good for a laugh. Plus my ad blocker works great. Site loads fast and I’m in and out in a couple of minutes, tops.
Oh sure I hang out on the internet. Though I don’t make a habit of demeaning people’s frumkeit in comments sections. Mr. Ploni on the other hand spend his days roasting people in the comments section. I think it’s time someone responded in kind and pointed him out as a nasty roidef.
Amazing how the term Roidef can be mangled and misused so horribly.
Are you for real???
He said the words, “lo zu darko shel Torah”.
You call that a “Roidef”?!?!
I call this an exaggeration.
You need to calm down and relax. The world is not out to hurt you. No one is trying to hurt you. Please take it easy.
Perhaps I am overreacting. However, I do think that Ploni’s pearl clutching is detestable. Till next time Mr. Ploni
Jerry just to clarify I don’t wear pearls. Dos Volt Geven an issur fun Lo Silbosh. But my wife Mrs. Plonis has very nice pearls.
The link is not working.
Anyone who uses the surname must be related to George Santos! Who knows what it can lead to?
Im glad we have a lot of people who think their mashgichim on the lakewood scoop…(maybe thats why they never landed on a real mashgiach job…)
What school did he go to? Did he learn in Yeshiva? Where did he aquire the skills to become such a young entrepreneur? It seems that TLS is already promoting him, which is great, but where can we find his work? There should also be more promotion of his career path that led him to achieve this, so that others can follow in his footsteps.
UPDATE: HE IS BEHIND NOW BY OVER 3K VOTES!!!
Everyone blast out to all your friends and neighbors please!!
So Eli,
Is that a yes on 5 minutes of serious torah learning a day for my vote? In the zechus of your learning, you should be matzliach in your aspirations.
Waiting for your answer….
