I've got money to burn.
我們形容有錢人錢多到可以用來當(dāng)柴燒，英文也有類似的說法：I've got money to burn. (我有錢用來燒)，比喻我很有錢。形容一個(gè)人富有英文可以說：He's loaded/ rich/ a fat-cat。暴發(fā)戶可以叫new money。
對(duì) 話
Rita: You spend so much shopping, don't you worry about budgeting?
Vivian: I never worry about it. I'm loaded.
Rita: But you don't have a job or anything.
Vivian: But my husband does, so I've got money to burn.
莉達(dá)：你花這么錢多購(gòu)物，不怕會(huì)花光錢嗎？
維維安：我從不擔(dān)心這個(gè)問題，我很富裕。
莉達(dá)：但你沒有工作。 維維安：但我的丈夫有錢嘛，所以我有燒不盡的錢拿來花。
莉達(dá)自言：I'm loaded. I've got money to burn。Loaded本義是‘載了貨的’，俚語常引申解作‘有錢’，也作loaded with dough。Dough原是‘生面團(tuán)’，俚語則用來說‘錢’，例如：(1) I took up a part-time job to earn some dough.（我要賺點(diǎn)錢，從事兼職工作）。(2) Don't spend so much dough on her.（別在她身上花那么多錢）。
To have money to burn直譯是‘有錢要燒掉’。這同樣是‘很有錢’的意思，也可解作有余錢’，例如：If you have money to burn, save it for a rainy day.（假如你有余錢，應(yīng)儲(chǔ)蓄起來，以備不時(shí)之需）。
漢朝崔烈以五百萬錢買個(gè)官職，‘論者嫌其銅臭’。英文也有類似‘銅臭’的說法：to stink of money或to be stinking rich。Stink是‘發(fā)臭味’，過去式和過去分詞(past participle)是stank、stunk，例如：The fish stinks. Throw it away（魚已經(jīng)發(fā)臭，扔了吧）。To stink of money或to be stinking rich即‘很有錢’，帶貶義，例如：He stank of money, and of course many girls set their caps at him（他廣有金銀，當(dāng)然得到不少女郎垂青）。從前女人多戴帽子(cap)；要引起男人注意，會(huì)挑看的一頂，一絲不茍的戴上，所以to set one's cap at a man是指女人設(shè)法吸引意中人追求。此外，rolling in money（在錢里打滾）、made of money（是錢造的）、(well) heeled（鞋子有后跟的）等，都是說‘很有錢’。He must be rolling in money/made of money/heeled即‘他一定很有錢’。
