Amish Secrets for Keeping Bank Accounts Fat and Happy

The No-Portrait Policy

You won’t find any portraits or paintings of people hanging on Amish walls, and here’s why: they believe that creating images of people could lead to vanity. It’s not that the Amish don’t appreciate art—they just don’t want to risk making a person into a piece of idolized decoration.

Plus, when a loved one passes away, the Amish hold onto memories, not pictures. It’s all about cherishing the real moments, not capturing them in a frame. So, while the rest of us fill our homes with family portraits, these folks prefer to let their hearts hold the memories—much less dusting involved.
