Broke is having nothing on hand, no one to lean on, no assets to cash in and nothing coming in. Otherwise, you're not broke, you're just short on cash at the moment.
I've been broke. So broke I was half-starved and passed out on the sidewalk. Broke is eating an onion as your main meal, because that's all you have. I've been nearly broke, and pinched pennies until they squeaked. Went to food banks, drove miles to save a few dollars on a bargain, and bummed a place to sleep from a friend for a few days. God willing, I never end up in that sort of situation again.
