"Throw good money after bad" có nghĩa là cố gắng bù lại khoản lỗ ban đầu nhưng hóa ra lại lãng phí thêm.
Ví dụ
I think that Masa is a businessman (doanh nhân). He doesn’t throw good money after bad. When he puts in money into companies, it’s because he believes in them and he thinks they’re going to be category leaders (dẫn đầu lĩnh vực).
He was responding to the mayor’s comments (bình luận của thị trưởng) that continuing with the controversial project (dự án gây tranh cãi) would be a case of throwing ‘good money after bad’ and says the cash would be better spent in the region.
Argentina is asking for maturity extensions (gia hạn thời gian đáo hạn) on its debts as its foreign exchange reserves plummet (dự trữ ngoại hối giảm mạnh). The IMF has to decide whether to throw good money after bad in Argentina. Argentina’s bonds (trái phiếu) plunged (lao dốc) after the first round election result and its shares fell 48%.
