2 live on one's own fat
редк."питаться подкожным жиром", жить на свой капитал, на свои средства, жить на накопленные средстваThe barter was a nothing, because who would take his donkey-cart to market and risk the thieves and deserters... on the way. Better to stay at home and live on your own fat as long as you could. (M. West, ‘The Devil's Advocate’, ch. 10) — Товарообмен прекратился; в самом деле, кто захочет ехать на рынок, рисковать своим товаром и тележкой с ослом, когда все дороги полны ворами и дезертирами... Уж лучше сидеть дома и как-нибудь перебиться на подножном корму.

13 live by one's wits
изворачиваться, всеми правдами и неправдами добывать средства к жизни; жить на сомнительные доходы...gentlemen who, like Messrs. Pyke and Pluck, live upon their wits (or not so much perhaps, upon the presence of their own wits as upon the absence of wits in other people) are occasionally reduced to very narrow shifts and straits... (Ch. Dickens, ‘Nicholas Nickleby’, ch. XXVII) — Такие джентльмены, как Пайк и Плак, живущие своим умом (или, пожалуй, не столько своим умом, сколько отсутствием оного у других), иной раз попадают в весьма затруднительное положение...
Fred Hardy was no fool; he could hardly have lived for twenty-five years on his wits in tolerable comfort unless he had had them all about him. (W. S. Maugham, ‘Complete Short Stories’, ‘The Lion's Skin’) — Фред Харди был не глуп. Вряд ли он прожил бы целых двадцать пять лет в относительном комфорте на сомнительные доходы, если бы не соображал, что к чему.
Mitzi: "Alas, yes - the life of an adventures is not an easy one." Duchess: "Adventuress!" Mitzi: "Hasn't Monsieur Felix warned you - I live by my wits." (N. Coward, ‘Operette’, act I, sc. II) — Митци: "Увы, жизнь авантюристки не легкая!" Герцогиня: "Авантюристки!" Митци: "Разве мосье Феликс не предупредил вас, что я добываю себе пропитание всеми правдами и неправдами?"
