Choosing a livelihood

Hi,

"Rabbi Meir said: One should teaech his son a craft which is innocent (of wrongdoing) and simple, and pray to the One to whom all wealth and assets belong.

"Poverty does not come from a particular craft, and wealth does not come from a particular craft; both come from the One to whom all wealth belongs, as it is written (Chaggai 2), 'The silver is Mine and the gold is Mine - this is the word of Gd.'"

(Talmud, Kiddushin 82b)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
