Any foreigners make money in Thailand without a work permit?

Please share your stories of making money in Thailand if you’d like.

I saw some personal trainers (white foreigners) who live in Thailand long term and have many local clients. Some of them even advertise themselves online.

On another occasion, I was dining in a good restaurant and they had a white foreigner playing live music. I doubt the foreign musician had a work permit for this particular activity.

Isn’t this quite risky to do freelance gigs in the country that doesn’t allow it? It seems the laws aren’t strongly enforced but I’d still not wanna take the risk. At the same time, I do respect people who just put themselves out there and satisfy a need in the local community.
