Uhmm Good day my people,when i saw this topic in the community,i just smile inside of me that how come you know that im broke right now😀 you see the issue of being broke is something I can relate with well well because it has happen to me many times,even right now as im typing this🤣.I feel like everybody has their own definition of broke depending on their lifestyle or what they see as important. For me being broke is not just about not having millions in my account, it is when I can’t even afford basic things that I use every day.
One big indicator that I am broke is when I can’t buy data you see In this modern world data is like food because most of the things we do are online. Without data I can’t connect with people, I can’t learn new things, I can’t even hustle for money. So anytime I reach a point where I check my balance and it is not even enough to buy small bundle, I know I am officially broke 🤣 without data on your you just feel lifeless.
Another thing is when you check your bank account and see zero or something that cannot even buy ordinary bread. That feeling alone is enough to remind you that you are broke,It is not even about having plenty money, sometimes just having small money for transport, food and little needs is enough But you see when even that small money is missing, it becomes a serious matter.
I remember one time I was so broke that I couldn’t even afford to buy a common toothpaste. I had to manage the little that was left by pressing it till it was flat like paper 😀 Another time I wanted to go out but there was no money for transport, so I just stayed home. That is when it really hit me that being broke is not only about luxury things, it is when you can’t even sort out the little basic ones.
Of course being broke is not something anybody likes to admit but it is real and it happens. For me it doesn’t mean I am lazy or not trying, it just means that sometimes life is hard and money is not enough. But I try to always encourage myself that it is not permanent. Today I might be broke but tomorrow I can have more,so when these times come i try to understand that the moment will surely pass
So to answer the question, when I say I am broke it means I don’t have enough to take care of my small needs like food, data, transport, or even small enjoyment. It is when I am left with nothing in my account and I have to just survive by managing. That is my own definition of being broke.Thanks for listening to my own honest thoughts
