Fling in cash for sybarite (4,5)
I believe the answer is:
free-liver
'sybarite' is the definition.
'fling in cash' is the wordplay.
'fling' becomes 'reel'.
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'cash' becomes 'fiver' (informal term for five pounds**).
'reel' placed within 'fiver' is 'FREE-LIVER'.
'for' is the link.
(Another definition for free-liver that I've seen is " One who eats and drinks to excess".)
I've seen this clue in The Times.
