: More money than sense 这个表达的意思是乱花钱。What about the phrase ‘splash out’?

Neil: To ‘splash out’ means that you spend a lot of money on something that you don’t necessarily need.

: Splash out 有随意花钱、挥霍的意思，常指某人花很多钱买自己不需要的东西。

Neil: He is going to splash out on a 5 star tour around the world.

: 他准备花大价钱参加豪华五星旅游团环游世界。He must be loaded!

Neil: Yes, he must be loaded. ‘Loaded’ is colloquial way of saying someone who has a lot of money.

: 如果我们说谁谁 loaded 那意思就是这个人很有钱 ，这是个口语表达。

Neil： We can also say someone is ‘minted’.

: Minted 也是一个口语表达，意思是有钱的。

Neil: I went to my old school friend’s house at Christmas, it’s amazing, he’s definitely minted!

: Well, good for your friend. I am absolutely skint, all those Christmas presents I had to buy!

Neil: Good use of the word ‘skint’ - if someone’s skint, it means they have no money at all.

: Skint 的意思是身无分文，一点儿钱都没有了。

Neil: Another word we often use meaning ‘having no money’ is ‘broke’.

: Broke 也有身无分文，没钱了的意思。I’m flat broke 我一毛前都没了。不过请大家注意，有时候我们会用 skint 和 broke 来夸大事实 ，强调手头暂时不富裕，所以在使用的时候要格外注意上下文语境。
