Hi folks,

This is a question that has been posted in another forum. As I have been thinking about it, I'd like to share you my opinion. I guess every way to one earns money without working does not sounds good. Normally, when one gets some amount of money without a relevant effort, it is a evidence of some kind of lawlessness.

That is my point of view. Cold someone corret my English? Indeed, it will be awsome to read another opinion.

The title doesn't make sense. It should be:

How To Get Money Without Working

You could steal it. You could beg for it. You could find some money. You could win the lottery. You could inherit it. You could go on welfare (get government assistance). (If you earned it you did some kind of work.)

Lottery can't, He can robbery to get. To buy a lottery also need money. I was laughing alone after reading your post. It's a great fun.

Say:

He can't play the lottery because he can't buy a ticket. (He doesn't have enough money.) But he could rob somebody. I laughed after reading your post. It was funny.

Picking cans like a street thug to make up the money for a lottery ticket. Then, win it. Let me know if it works to you.

Thank you so much, Tarheel. In fact, the title does not make sense. I did not notice this point.

In the UK, picking up cans won't get you any money. You can't sell them to anyone and you can't take them back to a shop to get money. Even when it was possible to get money from cans and glass bottles, these activities weren't done by "street thugs". Ordinary people did it every day.
