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

'very poor' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for skint that I've seen before include "Hard up (sl.)" , "Impoverished" , "Hard-up" , "bust" , "Extremely poor" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
