For most of his life, he ran a combination bookstore, lending library, publishing house, and speakers' bureau that was a center of cultural life in Miskolc and through which his twelve children were introduced to the city's intellectual leaders.

After his death, his wife Rosa took over the business and was successful enough to ensure that all of their sons were able to undertake the careers of their choice.
