Jacob started our his career as a dentist (?) and then became a lawyer (?) until eventually established grainaries. He became very wealthy and upon his later years in life, about three years before he passed on into heaven, he embarked on a pilgrimate to Jerusalem where he then donated his entire fortune (~9 billion) to help establish Mea Shearim מאה שערים in Jerusalem by puchasing the land in 1894 and establishing a trust that the rest of his money would go to the poor Jews who live in Jerusalem coming from Poland.
