[Avodah] Moshe Rabenu got rich from the shivrei luchos

[Marty Bluke]

Today’s Daf (Yerushalmi Shekalim 14) states that Moshe Rabenu got rich from
the pieces of the broken luchos. This statement seems quite strange to me
given the living conditions in the midbar.
1. They didn’t need to buy any food or water, that came from hashem.
2.They lived in tents so did not spend money on housing.
3. There was no land to buy.
4. Their clothing didn’t wear out.
5. No one needed to work.

So given the above what did it mean to be rich in the midbar? What was the
value of the shivrei luchos if there was nothing to buy? How did this
wealth affect Moshe’s life in any way?
