CAN ONLY MONEY MAKE YOU RICH?
NATIVE ENGLISH SPEAKERS NEEDED: Is this sentence grammatically correct please?
CAN ONLY MONEY MAKE YOU RICH?
And would you rather say it in a different way? Ex: Can money only make you rich? Only money can make your rich?...

I would say it depends what you are asking - the two questions are different by changing the word order and it changes the meaning of what you are saying.
1. Can only money make you rich? - is asking if other things can make you rich, i.e love, family friends.
2. Can money only make you rich? - is asking if money only brings you 'richness', i.e can money bring you also happiness? Slightly depends how you define rich though which is a different question altogether.
I would say I am assuming you mean the first meaning as that would make more sense as a question, but the second structure is a different question!
Not sure if that made sense at all.

I agree with Kirsty - that's the same sense I get from the sentence. "Can only money make you rich" sounds fine but "only money can make you rich?" doesn't work as well in English.
You could also say "is it only money that can make you rich?" But ultimately, I think the first sentence you gave - "can only money make you rich?" is the best.

Hi there
Your sentence sounds fine to me and I think you are trying to get people to question whether there are other things that can make you wealthy other than just money.
You could also say...
Is money the only way to be rich?
Is wealth measured by money alone?
Plus many other options! Hope this helps :)
