Make a Living

by Abdou

Hi Diana, Please could you correct me. We say: What do you do for a living, Or ~~what do you do for living~~. Thanks a lot. Have a good day.

Hi Abdou, Your first example is correct. We always say "a living" in that question.

What do you do for a living?
How do you make a living?

Have a great day!
Diana
