Reply To: Parnassa from Hashem?

To give more credit to MDG from your source in Nida it is clear that work is needed to get rich (aside from the Gra’s version), that answers one part of the question. However, the question remains and is even more powerful that the amount of work and amount of effort in work or success in work is not what decides a person’s income.

All the more so when we see that the halacha (mishna brura above) says it straight out.
