“it bothers me as I find it vulgar for young men to be taught to look for girls with money, that is the bottom line.”

What would you suggest the boys that really want to learn long term do? If they go out with a girl and find out after they like her and she likes him that she wants him to learn and he wants to learn but there is no feasible way for it to happen they have to make a much harder decision which if they leave Yeshiva to stay with this girl will cause resentment at the start of the marriage as he goes out into the work world.

IMO it is a basic hishtadlus to at least make sure she has a plan for herself to be working if she wants to marry a learner.

In regards to the comment about the system not being sustainable in the long term (next generation) -I would suggest 1) First and Foremost you need to place your trust in Hashem. A person needs to do what they need to do now to be the best they can be. Jews have been around for thousands of years and will continue to exist. The best thing a person can do is to sit and learn and give pleasure to his creator. If the time comes when a person needs to go out and work, many of these Yeshiva Bochurs will go out and work, but to be concerned for the next generation in a supposedly unsustainable cycle appears to be a bit of a lack in the belief of Hashem to sustain all mankind.

There is one way (that I can see) that this cycle is sustainable for another generation however I am not going to state it here for the only reason of not giving people the impression that it is the only way. Yehoshuas Hashem Keheref Ayin. – The salvation of Hashem comes in the blink of an eye. Beezras Hashem everyone will do what their Creator Above wants of them and Mashiach will come before any of this becomes an issue.
