You will be tempted.  You borrow a bunch of money from them and then boot them out instead of pay it back.
Hmmmmmmm... so do I need the Sons of Abraham DLC to do that?  I've never seen any Jews in my courts...

It is one of those intrigue options, they rarely show up in your court.

I've never seen an option to bring a Jew in (just Priests/Debutantes/Nobles, etc.)  So I guess I need the DLC.

No the option is to borrow from Jew moneylenders.  Another to expel the Jews/invite them back.  You can only get Jew courtiers by event.

A few idiot sons later, one of the idiots managed to have a prodigy that wasn't completely useless. After losing his first war against some tribe in the East the Duke of Trøndelag started, he won and kept winning every other war and even had a non-idiot son and a few daughters, so the kingdom is safe and now includes a bit of Sweden, some of Denmark and all of Ireland. Suck it, Pope, I am not converting!

Nah.  You have to be Christian or Muslim to borrow money from / expel the Jews; Norsemen can't do it.

Ah yeah that to.  Strangely Jews cannot borrow money from Jews either.

That's not strange at all.  Jews only like to exploit the goyim. :)

There are several times when I wouldn't mind being exploited, like when the Bulgarians rout my shit levies and I could really use another Mercenary troop.

I've never expelled the Jews. I've always just paid them back.

Jewish courtier events are mainly an annoyance as I've rarely had times when they were better than my existing courtiers.

I've also found a lot of them to be zealous and almost impossible to maintain friendly relations with, even if your character has "sympathy for Judaism".

Having differently religioned courtiers is just a bad idea in general.

King of England and Scotland now. :cool:  I guess I should give the Scottish crown to someone else so my vassals don't get too jealous. :hmm:

Why would you do that? While you wouldn't have to put up with the Scottish vassals who want the kingdom of Scotland, your English vassals will still want the kingdom of England and you'll suddenly have just built yourself a new rival.

Unless, you are planning on forming an Empire, usually best to just have your one king title and have the other kingdom's duchies drift into yours.
