Lectures from a Disciple, Vol. 2, The Lord Protects Those Who Glorify His Name
We should accept whatever is necessary to maintain body and soul together, and we should be very careful that we do not become so diverted that we forget what the whole goal of human life is. Not using this body for becoming Krishna conscious in this life is a waste, simply being a kripana (miserly person). If we simply maintain this body for sense gratification, at the end of this life, the only thing that we can take with us is our sinful reactions. But, if we use this human form of life for hearing and chanting about Krishna, then that is the purpose for maintaining this body.
