From various TV shows and commercials I’ve inferred that “making it rain” means throwing a handful of cash in the air. I get the impression this must have started with some movie. Can anyone tell me which?
I think this might be about the severe drought in certain parts of the country, and oh, gee whillikers, it just couldn’t be caused by anthropogenic global warming. I agree with those who say the current era is the greatest disconnect from science since the dark ages.
Making it rain: The art of throwing money into the air at an exotic dance club. Also used as a tool to get away from someone chasing you by throwing money in the air and having a crowd form to block the way of the person chasing you. Of course it could just be talking about the drought that is happening in certain parts of the country. :)
Also, “TheRainmaker” was a book by John Grisham and then made into a movie with Matt Damon – as g.smith points out, about a talented lawyer bringing money into the firm.

Not a one. The “dust bowl” is a myth.

In a law office, a rain maker is an employee who brings in business that makes money to keep the office open.

The Rainmaker, Burt Lancaster. Maybe it’s just about getting some kind of “job.”
