Assuming that one should only learn secular topics for the purpose of parnassah (making a living), to what extent may one learn those topics? Is it only permitted to learn enough to get a job that requires the least amount of knowledge? May one learn more in order to get a better job so he may live more comfortably and/or perform hiddur mitzvah? What if one must sacrifice a certain amount of Torah learning now in order to do more secular learning, but having a better job will facilitate much more time to learn Torah later?
