You can get by without a traditional job but you will need to do some work to pay the bills.
Find and Sell Scrap Metal.
Scrap metal is all around and you can turn it into cash if you're willing to work hard.
Check dumpsters, ask people around your neighborhood if they have any scrap metal they want removed. Some people will have scrap metal laying around that they want rid of and will be glad to give it to you to haul away.
You can pick up aluminum cans too and cash them in. I sold 2 bags of aluminum cans I had saved up a few days ago and I made $19.00 off of them.
Start a landscaping and lawn maintenance business.
You can start a lawn mowing and landscaping business.
Even do snow removal in the winter if there is snow your area. Some people will pay you pretty good to just get their driveway cleared of snow.
Work as an online freelancer.
If you're good at working on the computer you can make money doing freelance work such as creating logos, writing articles, doing web design etc.
The possibilities are endless.
Start a blog.
A lot of people make some extra income and some even a full time living off blogging.
You can earn money blogging by using Adsense, affiliate programs, or even sell your own product or Ebook.
Making money with a blog won't happen overnight though so if you need money now you should look for other ways to earn the money.
But you can still blog while working at other jobs.
