It won't work because money starts as being cleared, it can't be neither set nor cleared ever.

Err, no.
If you kill, say, a 100 kill score unit (zealot, for instance) the following will happen.
If you kill, say, a 100 kill score unit (zealot, for instance) the following will happen.
- Trigger 1 fires. "Money" is randomized
- Trigger 2 fires. If ranomization set "Money" then player 1 gains a mineral. "Money" is now cleared.
- Trigger 3 fires. No matter what, its conditions won't be met.
- Trigger 1 fires again, and the above process is repeated one more time.

Sorry, didn't read the triggers over fully, I just saw randomizing switches to determine how much money was recieved, and made the assumption that ninebreaker wasn't taking into account the default state of a switch.

We answered your question: no.
You would need to
a) use an acceptable method of KTC that grants an instance per kill
b) randomize the switch when kills is > 1
c) if switch is set AND kills > 1, set kills to 0 and add 2 minerals
d) if switch is clear AND kills > 1, set kills to 0 and add 1 mineral

Lets just say you know how to make a trigger to kill to money and whatnot (if not, I have a map attached):
Once the trigger fires set two switches: randomization switch -and- money switch.
Conditions:
- Kill score is '#'
- Randomization switch is cleared
Actions:
- Set randomization switch
- Randomize money switch
- Preserve trigger
Conditions:
- Randomization switch is set
- Money switch is set
Actions:
- Add 1 resource
- Clear randomization switch
- Preserve trigger
Conditions:
- Randomization switch is set
- Money switch is cleared
Actions:
- Add 2 resource
- Clear randomization switch
- Preserve trigger

Dark, your method would endless add minerals.
DEAD, your method uses improper KTC. You need to set kills score to 0, not subtract.

Yes, I missed the spot. I once used this in a RPG and there were different minerals for different monsters. So I writed substract. But I used kill score+deaths and 4 switches and that gave me 16 drop options. But for his trigger set would be right.

If you're using kill score it would be endless minerals.
You could modify it so it wouldn't be endless.

I don't like to point at your spelling DT because I write much worse but what does "vauge" mean? I checked the dictionary but I found nothing.

Trigger order + hypers are important.
