Good person without family and without cash (5)
I believe the answer is:
skint
'without cash' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'good person without family' is the wordplay.
'good person' becomes 'st' (saint).
'without' indicates putting letters inside ('without' can be similar in meaning to 'outside').
'family' becomes 'kin' (synonyms).
'st' going around 'kin' is 'SKINT'.
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for skint that I've seen before include "Hard up (slang)" , "Informally, having no money left" , "Strapped for cash" , "Hard up (sl.)" , "Hard-up" .)
