Continues to get profit (8)
I believe the answer is:
proceeds
I believe this is a triple definition!
'continues' is the first definition.
('proceed' can be a synonym of 'continue')
'to get' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)
'profit' is the third definition.
(I've seen this before)
(Other definitions for proceeds that I've seen before include "Starts lawsuit" , "Take" , "Amount of money from sale or performance - on it goes" , "Passes on" , "Income, from an event say" .)
