Wages or profits (8)
I believe the answer is:
earnings
I believe this is a double definition.
'wages' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)
'profits' is the second definition.
(synonyms)
(Other definitions for earnings that I've seen before include "Proceeds" , "Profits from a venture" , "Income from work" , "Moneys received for grannies" , "Profits, incomes" .)
