Is there a way of getting a surplus without having a debt?

This is not a rhetorical question.

Depends on how you define debt, I suppose?

Under a strict definition like "money that you've explicitly agreed to repay to a lender in the future", the answer is simple: "take money without agreeing to repay it" (e.g.: taxes, liquidations, nationalization).
