The expression comes from the idea of a dairy cow that continues to supply milk with little upkeep. This whimsical glass ornaments makes a great gift for any entrepreneur or business.

According to Wikipedia: "Cash cow" is also used sarcastically by sales & business people to describe a customer or organization that has no control over its spending.
