Tip a cent? That’s ridiculous. It’s very little money (8)
I believe the answer is:
pittance
'very little money' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both related to property as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'tip a cent? that's ridiculous' is the wordplay.
'that's ridiculous' indicates anagramming the letters.
'tip'+'a'+'cent'='tipacent'
'tipacent' is an anagram of 'PITTANCE'.
'it's' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pittance that I've seen before include "Tiny sum" , "Meagre allowance or wage" , "There's very little" , "Miserable pay" , "very little dough" .)
