Need to bump this again.
Someone in a different thread mentioned that Hashem will give you the Parnassah you should be getting, even if you decide not to do any hishtadlus.
That is a dangerous and very wrong idea. A person has Bechira to choose not to earn what Hashem wants to give him, just like a berson has Bechira to choose not to use the boat & helicopter that try to save him from the flood (from the famous mashel).
