A man from out-of-town came to Rabbi Yoel Teitlebaum, the Satmar Rav, and asked him for financial assistance.  The man claimed he wa ill, his wife was ill, and his children were ill.  The Satmar Rav gave him a very large sum of money and wished him and his family a speedy recovery.  When the man left, someone informed the Satmar Rav that the man had not told the truth; that he and his family were not really ill.

“Boruch Hashem (Thank G-d),” said the Satmar Rav, not the least bit dismayed.  “I’m very happy to hear that they are well.” ~ R’ Zelig Pliskin
