Poor Expressions....
Ok, so it's still February... Christmas seems like it happened a year ago and miserable January is finally over... Thank goodness! But February is still a nightmare, why? because our January salary was spent paying off Christmas.
Here are some expressions to express how poor you are:
I am piss-poor; without money, broke. "I'm not going out tonight... I'll be piss-poor until payday."
I haven't got a pot to piss in; Before we had toilets we used to piss in a pot...
"I am so poor I can't even afford a pot to piss in!"
I am skint; A person who has no money, broke, poor. "I am so skint right now... Could you lend me a fiver?"
Homework:
1. Find some more expressions/ slang that express being poor and practise using these expressions.
