How to use "Broke" in context?
When you say someone is "broke," it's a pretty serious accusation. To be broke means they don't have enough money to cover their current bills and debts. It can also mean they can't afford to go on vacation, buy new clothes, or have fun. It can be tough to get out of a broke situation, but there are some things you can do to start rebuilding your finances.
Start by creating a budget and sticking to it. This will help you to figure out how much money you actually have available each month. Once you know how much you can afford, start thinking about ways to save the money you do have.
