Correct Answer: Broke

Solution : The correct choice is the first option .

Penniless is used to describe someone who is very poor and has no money to his name.

Broke is used to describe a person or situation where one is not left with any money. Both of these words imply having no money, thus making them synonyms.

The meanings of the other options are as follows:

• Reckless is used to describe someone who is not cautious.
• Cranky behaviour is strange and unusual.
• Wealthy means to have a great deal of money or assets.
