So if non-EEA folk get the CoA with the words "Entitled to Work" then I guess that means they are allowed to work, and make money
Then on the other flip side some if folk get the CoA with the words "Not Entitled to Work" then I guess that means they are Not allowed to work, and make money.
Which one exactly did you get?

NONE OF THEM! This is what I got, a standard template where there are no words "Entitled to Work" or "Not Entitled to Work" :
What you mean by Making Money?

QUESTIONS ANS ANSWERS
Why are you unable to confirm my right to work in the United Kingdom whilst my application is being considered?
We are unable to confirm eligibility to take or continue employment in the United Kingdom where-
- The applicant is seeking to remain in order to provide day-to-day care for an EU citizen child who is exercising European free movement rights in United Kingdom as a self-sufficient person.
In these circumstances any right to work will depend on your having some alternative basis of stay in the United Kingdom which does not prohibit access to employment or self-employment. Permission to remain may be given on the basis of your caring responsibilities but will not include any entitlement to work or to access public funds.
- The application is the unmarried partner or an extended family member (for example, the brother or sister) of an EU citizen who is exercising European free movement rights in the United Kingdom.
In these circumstances there is no automatic right or entitlement to live in the United Kingdom with the EU citizen sponsor. The Home Secretary must consider whether, in all the circumstances of the case, it would be right to issue a Residence Card on this basis. This means that until we have determined that you qualify as an unmarried partner or as an extended family member by issuing a Residence Document, you are not able to work on the basis of your relationship to your EU citizen sponsor. Any right to work in the meanwhile will depend on your having some alternative basis of stay in the United Kingdom which does not prohibit access to employment or self-employment.
- The application has not provided satisfactory evidence of his or her identity or of his or her relationship to an EU citizen.
We will consider your application but we may need to contact you for some additional or alternative evidence. Until work on your application has been completed we will not able to provide confirmation of your current status. Any right to work in the meanwhile will depend on your having some alternative basis of stay in the United Kingdom which does not prohibit access to employment or self-employment.”
