Pronunciation: buhkt

Sentence: Alan wanted so much to get ahead on his bills.

When he went to his car in the morning to retrieve a change of clothes, he found a ticket, whose fine exceeded all the extra cash he had just earned. BUCKED AGAIN!

Etymology: buck (money) + "another word that rhymes with buck" (screwed)
