Popa thinks we have a real problem.
The cost of supporting a frum family is higher than most good paying jobs can support. 80k does not cut it, and there is not a lot of room for advancement in nursing.
Popa thinks that is why men are pushed into pursuing high paying jobs at greater risk, and won’t take lower paying jobs even if there is nothing else available, since those jobs will not suffice.
I read the article in Mishpach. They are surprised litvish men didn’t take jobs with TSA for $24 an hour. I know why- it won’t pay the bills.
Aside: They write that 90% of Harvard law graduates aren’t getting jobs. I hope that was a typo, since it undercuts their credibility. Harvard law graduates are doing just fine.
