Summary

Mishnah, — Seder Nashim, Tractate KiddushinChapter 4

I leave aside all professions in the world, and I teach my son only Torah; for a person eats of its reward in this world, and the principal endures in the world to come. And all other professions are not so — when a person comes into sickness, or into old age, or into suffering, and is not able to be involved in his work, he dies in hunger. But the Torah is not so — but rather it guards him from all evil in his youth, and gives him finality and hope in his old age
