10 куры не клюют

( чего)

(о деньгах, золоте и т. п.) разг.

cf. have more gold (money) than one can count; be flush of coin (money); be made of money; have money to burn; roll (wallow) in money (riches, wealth); stink of (with) money (brass); be in the gravy

Медведенко. У меня теперь в доме шестеро. А мука семь гривен пуд. Дорн. Вот тут и вертись. Медведенко. Вам хорошо смеяться. Денег у вас куры не клюют. (А. Чехов, Чайка) — Medvedenko. I have six of them at home now. And flour is two kopecks per pound. Dorn. You've got to look sharp to make both ends meet. Medvedenko. It's all very well for you to laugh. You've got more money than you know what to do with.

- Вот этот молодой человек тоже, верно, мечтает: мол, помрёт в некий срок папенька, и будут у него куры не клевать золота! А куры-то и впрямь не будут клевать, потому что клевать будет нечего. (И. Бунин, Ворон) — 'Now this young man here probably has his dreams too. He's thinking his dear papa will die one day and then he'll have more gold than he can count. And, indeed, he won't be able to count it, for there will be nothing for him to count!'

"Он бы прямо на митингах мог деньги зарабатывать,... - первоклассный деляга. Впрочем, у него и так, по-видимому, денег куры не клюют". (М. Булгаков, Собачье сердце) — 'He could make money as a speaker at meetings... Talk the hind leg off a donkey, he would. Still, he seems to be made of money as it is.'
