Money sent endlessly abroad (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sen

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

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

'sent endlessly abroad' is the wordplay.
'sent' becomes 'based' ('base' can be a synonym of 'send').
'endlessly' indicates the central letters (the ends of the words are removed).
'abroad' becomes 'en' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
The centre of 'based' is 's'.
's'+'en'='SEN'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sen that I've seen before include "Very small change for Japanese" , "nurse" , "Fraction of yen" , "Japanese coin" , "three quarters?" .)
