Money vs religion is a common conflict. And the two often recommend
different answers.

How about the American immigrant who chose a 7 day job over Shabbos?
Or his grandson who chose a career rather than staying in places that
have the necessary servives (shul, chinukh, miqvah, kosher food). I
think the birth of the American C movement can be viewed as product of
people trying to compromise their way through that conflict.
