Shattered as penniless (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

broke

I believe this clue is a double definition.

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

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

'as' is the link.

(Other definitions for broke that I've seen before include "With completely empty pockets" , "Smashed; penniless" , "Bust - something to go for?" , "Lacking funds" , "Impecunious" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
