Breaks the bank? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

erodes

'breaks the bank?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for erodes that I've seen before include "Wears away as by time or water" , "Eats away" , "Wears away with weather" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
