Money-making describes a product, a plan, or a business that brings in a lot of money — or that is meant to. A money-making business is one that earns well; a money-making scheme is a plan to get rich, and that second one can sound a bit suspicious, as if someone is more interested in cash than in doing a good job.

Though actually, it does not always mean “already rich.” People use it for something that looks likely to pay, even before the money has come in. It is about earning, not about already having wealth.
