Interesting tidbit from the Yated parshas Vayeira (I’m a bit behind):
The Steipler used to warn parents against going into debt by buying apartments for their sons-in law in Yerushalayim and Bnei Brak. Someone pointed out to him that the “shpitz” bochurim demanded such apartments. he replied, “Klal yisroel has never been built by “Shpitzim”. Only those who learn with humility and without demands will emerge as talmidei chachamim. Nothing will come of those who make excessive demands.”
