skiaddict -“But not working more than learning?”
Maybe this is ideal, but in our day & age -most of the time this isn’t practical.
“And only married men who need to support their wives it seems!”
What happened to supporting yourself when you don’t have a wife?
Not so long ago -kids would start working at around 6 years old.
The very top of the kids would stay in learning after that time to become the ones in Melechas Hakodesh. What you see nowadays in the Frum world is a new creation -it was never like this since the time of Matan Torah!
