getting rich quick; making a killing; making a fortune at a single stroke
every moment is precious; time is money; precious time
hanging by a thread; being in imminent danger; critical situation; (lit.) a thousand weights on a single hair
being lavish with one's money; spending a huge sum of money at once on a treat
one's word is worth 1,000 pieces of gold; a promise should be kept at all cost
a smile of a beautiful woman is worth a thousand pieces of gold; enchanting smile of a glamorous woman
