Pockets are super useful. They can hold things like money. But how does money “burn a hole in your pocket?” Let’s listen.
D: Guess what, Anna? I won $500 last week!
A: That’s great! Dan, remember to save some of it.
D: I spent it.
A: What? All of it?
D: That money was burning a hole in my pocket.
A: Oh, Dan, is why you never have money.
This expression is about one thing...money! If someone says money is “burning a hole in their pocket,” it means they want to spend it right away. Some people, like Dan, have a hard time saving money instead of spending it.
