EVERY one should do an honest day's work. The farmer tills the land to grow a crop and this is the way he makes money. A clerk works in an office and gets his salary. These people have genuine skills, which are productive. An honest day's work merits an honest wage. If a person does not have a skill, how would he get money? One way is to lie, bluff or cheat people and another is to rob and kill. These actions are, of course, condemned outright. 

Between lying to people and murderous robbery, there is a range of things lazy people could do to get money without working for it. A common method is get commissions. By influencing the tenders for contracts, a person could get some kickback. The influential person may even arrange for his relatives or friends to get some projects.
