Slimy scheme for profit

MONEYGRAB

Think of a greedy, slippery tactic that starts with "money" and ends with what you might do to a snack.

"Slimy scheme for profit" hints at something unethical and greedy. "Slimy" suggests dishonesty, while "scheme for profit" points to grabbing money—literally. The answer, "MONEYGRAB," combines "money" (profit) with "grab" (a quick, often unfair take), making it a straightforward but vivid term for exploitative behavior. The clue plays on the idea of something slippery or underhanded, reinforcing the negative tone.
