Come in the soup, go in the water

Tang Li Lai and Shui Li Qu are still a Chinese word, which means that money comes and goes at will and can't be kept.

source

The 53rd chapter of Li Baojia's a brief history of civilization in Qing Dynasty: "Wang Mingyao is the most diligent and resourceful. He can get any money, but he comes from the soup and goes from the water. He has been busy for half a lifetime, and some of them can't be saved."

Examples

We don't need it now.

Come in the soup, go in the water
