> poor and modest talmid chacham
do organizations mention the level of modesty of their talmidei chachamim?
specifying currency is important as I was taught some years ago: when a gabbai in Israel paused in his misheberach asking for a specific value after Torah reading, I replied “meah” presuming a local currency, but my accent “confused” him and he repeated “meah dollarim”. This was at times when full tank of gas was less than $100 … I could have saved 10% by using Canadian dollarim.
