For my money – на мою думку

Bread and butter – основний дохід


Cheapskate – скнара, жмикрут
At all costs – за будь-яку ціну
Cost a pretty penny – космічна ціна
Nest egg - заощадження на чорний день
Around the clock – доба
In a broad daylight – серед білого дня
Monkey business – даремна справа, безглузда
Elephant in the room
Big cheese
Top banana
In a nutshell
Sell like hot cakes/hot dogs
Under the Weather
See eye to eye
To cut corners
No pain no gain
It's Greek to me
When Pigs Fly
Once in a blue moon
Bite off more than you can chew
Apple of one’s eye
Half-baked
Be like chalk and cheese
Fish out of water
Happy as a clam
Add fuel to the fire
A piece of cake
Cost an arm and a leg
Giving someone the cold shoulder
The last straw
The ball is in your court
Playing Hardball
Big fish in a little sea
Easy as pie
Easy come, easy go
Everything but the kitchen sink
Get something off your chest
Jack of all trades
Kick back
Hit the Nail on the Head
Get Your Ducks in a Row
Catch someone red-handed
Paint the town red
Red-hot
Roll out the red carpet
Feel blue
Blue blood
Out of the blue
To wave a white flag
As white as a ghost
Give/get the green light
The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence
Black and blue
Black eye
Black sheep of the family
Black tie event
Double Dutch
Excuse / pardon my French!
In cold blood
Backseat driver
To face the music
To cut to the chase
To hit the bull’s eye
Get the ball rolling
Behind the scenes
Long shot
Fill in for someone
Be (go) broke
Ground-braking
Get down to business
Know something like the back of your hand
win-win situation for all of us
To have bigger fish to fry
To bring home the bacon
To be as cool as cucumber
Bad egg
To be in/get into hot water
pie in the sky
To look before you leap
To eat one’s words
eager beaver
To miss the boat
To hit the books
To make ends meet
To eat like a horse
To have a sweet tooth
To go with the flow
To break the ice
To let the dust settle
rain cats and dogs
face like thunder
storm in a teacup
chase rainbows
have one's head in the clouds
as right as rain
for a rainy day
bolt from the blue
weather the storm
sail close to the wind
on cloud nine
 a piece of the pie
 hit the jackpot
 be in the red
 look like a million dollars
 go Dutch
 golden handshake
 be flush with money
 live beyond one's means
 break the bank
 cost a fortune
run out of time
in the blink of an eye
give someone a hard time
be ahead of time
go with the times
smell a rat
top dog
cash cow
be as busy as a bee
let a cat out of the bag
as poor as a church mouse
hear it straight from the horse's mouth
butterflies in the stomach
egghead
couch potato
bad apple
hard nut to crack
have egg on one's face
be full of beans
cry over spilt milk
A friend in need is a friend indeed
Tie the knot
Get out of hand
Blow smoke
Freak out
Fed up
Snowed under
To beat around the brush
Can`t judge a book by its cover
From scratch
Every now and then
To travel light
Not for all the tea in China
To chicken out
A little bird told me
To strike while the iron is hot
Do not take it to heart
Could not care less
To sit tight
It works like a charm
To push your luck
Slipped my mind
