What are ways to make money you don't have to work in the sims 4 game?

If you mean not working an actual career there's a good couple of ways depending on what appeals to y ou

-Fishing
-Selling collectibles and minerals
-Selling artifacts from Selvadorada (Jungle Adventure)
-Gardening
-Selling plants and collectibles found at the festivals in San Mynshuno (Searching for snow globes and posters and selling them.)
-Playing for tips with whatever instrument (or busking in City Living)
-Kleptomaniac (Going to other sims home and stealing their stuff and selling it.)
-Ask for a loan (Requires charisma to be high. Can be a small loan or a big loan). I haven't paid multiple sims back and there hasn't been a penalty for being a moocher
-Sale items with the sale table, which you can have a yard sale on your lot and mark up the price however you like

If you want to really get into the selling rocks/crystals bit, go for the Curator aspiration -- you can sell the rocks and crystals to the Simsonian museum and make a lot of money that way. Geek trait helps with finding better collectibles.

When you get high enough in Archaeology Skill, the Simsonian will start sending you artifacts to authenticate -- when you authenticate them and send them back, you can get §3000 to §4000 for each one. Doing freelance programming also pays pretty well the higher your programming skill.

I had a klepto vampire in a save once -- that was pretty fun. :) Mischief has to be pretty high to steal large stuff, I think, so you're limited to cheap decor stuff at first like tissue boxes.

Painting seems to be the steadiest and most lucrative. You'll start out with just being able to sell to collectors, but when you get higher in painting skill, the sell to art gallery option pops up and that's when you can really start making the money. Make sure your Sim has the Creative Visionary trait from the Rewards Store if you really want to make a lot of Simoleons. . Though if you have Seasons, save up the rewards points and get the Money Tree -- careful care and you'll bring in about 10K per farvest, or more if you take really good care of it and it improves in "quality".
