Tradition got me thinking in relation to a discussion on Hirhurim about 
Doctors.&nbsp; Let's assume for now that&nbsp; 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&nbsp; worked for parnassa at another 
profession?<BR><BR>KT</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
