Middos are of the utmost importance, & sometimes you have someone who is
learning full time & does not have good middos.
Derech Eretz (middos) Kodmah Latorah!
If he werent interested in being koveah itim, I understand,
but if he wants to be koveah itim (for real), what’s the problem?
If he supports talmidei chachamim he has an equal share in their Torah.
not everybody is cut out to learn full time.
& if they aren’t, it’s much better for them to be working.
