Well, I know this is kind of a weird question.

**In episode 176 of Naruto Shippuden** , when the village's history is shown,
we see that everyone hated Naruto, and even his homeroom teacher (Iruka)
didn't understood him.

He was upset, and Teuchi of Ichiraku Ramen asked him to have some ramen, but
he said **"I didn't have money for it"**.

I thought a lot and was unable to figure out where he got his money from? He
didn't have his missions at that time.

Where did Naruto get his money from?


**TL;DR** The Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, looked after Naruto, in
accordance with the Fourth Hokage's wish to have the village see Naruto as a
hero.

Early in the series, Sarutobi mentions how the Fourth Hokage sealed the Kyuubi
inside Naruto, and died wishing that the village would treat Naruto as a hero.
Much later, it is also revealed that:

> Sarutobi personally witnessed the Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato, use the
> Shiki Fuijin technique to assist in sealing the Kyuubi inside Naruto.
> Sarutobi remarks about Minato making his own son a Jinchuriki to save the
> village. In the process, Naruto also became an orphan minutes after he was
> born. (Chapter 504)

Sarutobi saw the Fourth Hokage's deed as a heroic sacrifice (especially in the
light of the spoiler-text above), and took up the responsibility of fulfilling
the Fourth Hokage's wish. Naturally, that includes paying for the orphan
child's expenses until he is old enough.

Along the same lines, it was also mentioned that Sarutobi banned any
discussion of the Kyuubi incident and severely punished anyone who disobeyed.
Most other people either hated Naruto or were indifferent towards him, as he
remarks multiple times later on during the series. Thus, nobody besides
Sarutobi could possibly care to pay for Naruto's expenses.1

Hence, although nobody explicitly stated that the Third Hokage looked after
Naruto's expenses (room rent, food, clothes, etc.), it is obvious that this is
what happened.

1 This also leads to one of the many plotholes in Naruto's childhood story:
Naruto has said a few times that Iruka-sensei was the first person who cared
for him, and before then, his life was a hell of loneliness. Why didn't
Sarutobi treat him with a bit more warmth from the beginning, _especially_
when he knew who Naruto's parents were?

As we all know that Third Hokage, Sarutobi was always there for orphans
especially those whose parents were shinoubi and had died for Konoha , such a
case can be seen for Iruka when he was child and had lost his parents as in
Episode 144 of Shonen Jump ,in Mizuki's flashback. Same was the case with
Naruto for his father , The Fourth Hokage had also used the forbidden jutsu,
died and made his son a jinchurikki as to save Konoha that is why Naruto was
given all economical support but the caring and love could not be given to him
by Sarutobi because hokage is always busy in paper work and assembling of
ninjas and could not spare time for that, the proof for that thing is when
Lady Tsunade is made hokage she has bundles and bundles of paperwork to do so.
That is how Naruto has money but still spends his life in Loneliness and
Despair.
