SB 10.86.15

yatra-matram tv ahar ahar
 daivad upanamaty uta
nadhikam tavata tustah
 kriya cakre yathocitah
 
Translation: 
 
By the will of Providence he obtained each day just what he needed for his maintenance, and no more. Satisfied with this much, he properly executed his religious duties.
 
Purport: 
 
An ideal Vaisnava brahmana, even if encumbered by the ties of family life, should work only as hard as required to meet his obligations. Without being unnecessarily agitated for material advancement, he should devote the best part of his time and assets to his higher duties in the Supreme Lord’s service. If a householder can succeed in this program despite the unavoidable difficulties of this degraded age, he can expect Lord Krsna’s personal attention, as will be seen in the case of Srutadeva, the perfect brahmana of Mithila.
