[Avodah] Rambam/Support

[Rich, Joel]

The recent article in Tradition got me thinking in relation to a
discussion on Hirhurim about Doctors.  Let's assume for now that  the
Rambam learned full time and only went to work for Parnassa after his
brother died (we need not get into whether this was Yissachar/Zevulun
according to R' Moshe or "tzedakka"), why did he choose medicine which
seems to have led him to spend much less time on limud torah then he
might have spent had he  worked for parnassa at another profession?
