I’m sorry but I still don’t get it. 2 questions: we all know so many people who are struggling financially. Even if they can BH put food on the table it’s a struggle. So the optics of something like this just doesn’t make sense to me. Where is nosai b’ol I’m chavero. It is a slap in the face to the majority of jewish families who need to submit themselves to a tuition board and are up at night thinking how they will pay the bills. The reason there is a back lash is because this is out of touch with most of klal yisroel. Second question: aren’t there many chazal that discuss the need for humility to be kona torah. And that it is a necessary ingredient to becoming a tzdik. Also what about all the stories we hear of gedolim living with simplicity I dont see How does this fits with that? There is another word for doing big showy things it’s called gayva and it would seems that’s a pretty bad thing in Judaism. Would love to hear an answer.
