skint

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'having no cash' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'hide given time' is the wordplay.
'hide' becomes 'skin' (synonyms).
'given' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'skin'+'t'='SKINT'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for skint that I've seen before include "Hard up (slang)" , "On one's uppers" , "Extremely poor" , "Hard up (sl.)" , "Penniless (slang)" .)
