I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'promenade?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'money received of those people having acquired a' is the wordplay.
'money received' becomes 'take' (I've seen this before).
'of those people' becomes 'their' (I've seen this before).
'having acquired' is an insertion indicator.
'their' going around 'a' is 'theair'.
'take'+'theair'='TAKE THE AIR'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for take the air that I've seen before include "Maybe go for a constitutional" , "Go outdoors for walk, etc" .)
