His problem is money.

Post by Itasan » Tue Jun 19, 2007 1:17 am

"Mark's biggest problem is money."
1. Is he poor and does he need money?
2. Can't he control his money properly?
3. Or anything else?

Thank you.

It could mean both you are right! What it actually means will depend on the context of the phrase or what was the situation surrounding the statement.
