And I'll bet I make a whole lot more money than some of those tin-horns that spend all they got on dress-suits and haven't got a decent suit of underwear to their name! (S. Lewis, ‘Babbitt’, ch. II) — Держу пари, что я больше зарабатываю, чем эти... эти прыгуны, которые только и знают, что напяливать фраки, а у самих приличной пары белья за душой нет!

You know I ain't got a penny to my name and no knowing where to get money. (E. Caldwell, ‘Tobacco Road’, ch. II) — Ты знаешь, что у меня нет ни пенни в кармане и мне негде взять денег.

Con, who had been six years in Aberlaw, had not a penny to his name (A. J. Cronin, ‘The Citadel’, book II, ch. 9) — Прожив шесть лет в Эберло, Кон не отложил ни единого пенни.
