Reply To: Being in Kollel but not a Ben Torah

I’ve heard of it, but most of those guys aren’t in kollel for very long.

I agree that that is a casualty of our success.

As far as accountability, it depends on the kollel. Any decently paying kollel has some accountability – not necessarily what you suggest, but the rosh kollel knows who is being productive and who isn’t, and the ones who aren’t don’t last very long.
