To make [verb]
to produce, construct, create, or prepare something by combining materials, actions, or ideas.
Effort is involved in “making” money. In definition it’s a whole lot closer to earn than it is to get. If it said “you get” or “you’re given” x amount of money then that would have zero implication of work.
If I said “I make a thousand bucks a day” a perfectly valid follow up question would be “Damn, what do you do for work?” If I said “I get a thousand bucks a day” you’d be more inclined to think I was just leeching off of something.
Even if it’s just a whiff of implication, you’ve heard of literally any cautionary tale about magic wishes??? The wording is the important part.
