Quite a lot of money earned for clearing litter? (4,6)

'litter?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'quite a lot of money earned for clearing' is the wordplay.
'quite' becomes 'ay' (both can mean 'yes').
'a lot of' means to remove the first letter.
'money earned' becomes 'income' (I've seen this before).
'for' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (I've seen this in other clues).
'clearing' becomes 'tid' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'ay' with its first letter removed is 'y'.
'y'+'income'='yincome'
'yincome' put after 'tid' is 'TIDY INCOME'.

Can you help me to learn more?
