Broke

What does it mean to be broke?

 

I know a woman who had to forgo discounted diapers at NTUC because if she bought the diapers, she'd have absolutely no money for her transport to work for the next 2 days.

 

I am thankful that I do not have to face such a dilemma.

 

Money (for now) is enough for the three of us even though we are living on one income. I can still afford extras like taxi rides. Alhamdulillah.

 

I'm going back to work next year to build a bigger nest-egg.

 

What am I saving for? I have no idea. As it is, my savings remain pretty much untouched now.

 

But, I fear that a day will come when I'll be broke. How that will happen, I have no idea but the thought that such a day may come is very scary.
