In both American and Brazilian contexts, the term 'money-making plan' can carry either a positive or skeptical connotation depending on context. In entrepreneurial or business settings, it's neutral or positive. However, when used colloquially (especially with the phrase 'another one of his money-making plans'), it often implies skepticism about the viability or legitimacy of the scheme. This reflects cultural attitudes toward quick-money ventures and get-rich-quick schemes in both cultures.
