Beautiful is Torah study with worldly occupation/ excellent is the study of Law together with wordly occupation

It is good to engage in Torah study when it is combined with work and the ability to make a living. See also: "Torah without labor will ultimately fail and lead to sin."

("Rabban Gamliel, son of Rabbi Yehuda HaNasi, says: Beautiful is Torah study with worldly occupation, for the effort of both makes one forget sin, and all Torah that is not accompanied by labor will ultimately fail and lead to sin" - Avot 2:2)
