I believe you are correct, but having never learned in the Mir, I couldn't offer any first-hand information.<br /><br />My understanding of the situation is that the Mir is in reality a huge Shteeble with Torah being learned day and night. I don't think there is any policy or Hashkafah Shiur telling Avreichim that they can't work. One comes, finds his niche/Rebbe, then stays on and learns Torah for as long as he can. Most Talmidim eventually go back to the countries of origin and many eventually join the work force. <br /><br />Lakewood is an entirely different concept, and this blog is not the correct venue for arguing such orthonomics. There are enough other blogs for that.SoMeHoW Frumhttp://somehowfrum.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157868497534649595.post-24645343722197736412011-11-15T11:09:07.368-05:002011-11-15T11:09:07.368-05:00Dear: Alumnus of Mir

I think that you meant to say that Lakewood has that mehalach, because I know for a fact that the Mir dosen't. Not only that but the rebbeim usually give their blessing to one who wants to go out and work.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157868497534649595.post-35320185750810774402011-11-13T23:00:33.865-05:002011-11-13T23:00:33.865-05:00The financial mess is inevitable.

If the Mir is bailed out now, and allowed to grow further, it just means that there will be an even worse financial crisis further down the line. When will people realize that it is against the mesorah, and simply does not work, to teach people not to work for a living?Alumnus of Mirnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157868497534649595.post-16838823310896169182011-11-11T12:00:11.442-05:002011-11-11T12:00:11.442-05:00Bray,

If the burden he shouldered was too overbearing, we certainly don't want it to take any more victims.<br /><br />Hence I believe in this case an emergency appeal is in order.SoMeHoW Frumhttp://somehowfrum.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157868497534649595.post-40455721723357958012011-11-11T11:27:44.802-05:002011-11-11T11:27:44.802-05:00a frum mk made much the same point to the k'ne...a frum mk made much the same point to the k'nesset but if you ask me he, and you, are in poor taste<br /><br />http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/news/General+News/108568/MK-Eichler-Tells-Knesset%3A-Mir-Rosh-Yeshiva-Had-Heart-Attack-Because-We-Didn%27t-Concern-Ourselves-With-The-Budget.html<br /><br />allow the shloshim to pass before exploiting the mans death for anything financial, no matter how noble the cause.The Bray of Fundiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08552912825252813495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5157868497534649595.post-40207646139278241692011-11-11T09:47:55.121-05:002011-11-11T09:47:55.121-05:00yehi zichro boruchyehi zichro boruchThe Bray of Fundiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08552912825252813495noreply@blogger.com
