AAQ >> “I AM ALL FOR FATHER-IN-LAWS AND BUSINESSMEN SUPPORTING LEARNERS”
Avram> No you’re not. I’ve been around the block with you on that topic before.
I am not sure what was the context of my previous words … maybe we were discussing learning v. part/time learning and working and Gemora’s position that many followed R Shimon and failed? This still allows for people who will not fail and also those who will fail will simply live a little warped life without affecting other people. This seems like an academic topic, I do not think we have – in our times – a lot of people who fail in learning but excel in middos to not take OPM. Usually, if you have good middos and access to learning material, you will succeed.
