Quote: R' Nachman on Livelihood

I heard the Rebbe say, 'Why worry about livelihood. The only thing to worry about is that you may die of hunger if you cannot afford food. And if you die, what is so terrible? You must die anyway.

(Just my two cents on this above quote since I feel that others are understanding the quote differently to me, kind of defeating the purpose for me posting it

I think the point of the message is clearly sarcastic. Of course R' Nachman wants people to work, he just says not to *worry* about it. The point of the quote is it just paints things in terms of the extremes. The reality is, no matter how bad things get for the majority of people that doesnt mean you are going to starve to death. And if G-d forbid a person reaches that stage, you dont have to *worry* because it is inevitable because we all have to die anyway. The key thing is not to be upset, depressed or worry. Just take things in your stride)
