How to Get Money Without Working.

1
Rent out a room in your house. If you have a room (or rooms) that are going unused in your house, consider furnishing them and renting them out to tenants. If you do so, be sure to abide by the laws that govern landlords in your local area with regards to rent levels, amenities, and the like. Doing this allows you to collect a sizable check every month without any work beyond preparing the room for occupancy.
Only rent rooms to responsible, trustworthy tenants who will pay you on time and respect your property. Don't be afraid to require the number of a previous landlord and/or a copy of a recent pay stub from prospective occupants.
Services such as Airbnb can help connect you with travelers and others looking for short-term rentals. This can enable you to charge a significantly higher rate per night than if you rent the room by the month.

Host a successful website. If you have a popular website, you can use many strategies to monetize it. This option is especially viable if you're able to get cheap or free web hosting, or if you're able to strike a deal with a website with a large audience (like YouTube) to distribute your content. Options for making money off of your website are diverse and include:
Selling advertising space
Selling original content to other websites
Selling merchandise




Inherit money. If you have a wealthy, elderly relative, you may receive money when the time comes to read his or her will. Of course, if your relative regards you fondly, s/he is more likely to write you into the will than if s/he doesn't, so try to stay on your elderly relatives' good sides. Hopefully, this goes without saying, as treating the elderly with love and respect solely in an attempt to get their money is obviously incredibly cruel and cynical.



Lottery tickets generally cost just a few dollars and are available at most grocery and convenience stores, so this is one of the cheapest, least work-intensive ways of making money. However, you're much more likely to lose money by playing the lottery than to win a big prize.
Always expect to lose the money you spend on lottery tickets. The lottery should be a cheap amusement, not a serious habit and certainly not a means of supporting yourself.
