'A bottomless pit' = hố sâu không đáy -> (người) lúc nào cũng thấy đói giống như bụng không đáy; tình huống, trường hợp cần một lượng tiền của, nguồn lực rất nhiều, gần như vô tận, không có giới hạn
Ví dụ
The Inkatha Freedom Party (IFP) has lashed out at the government for supporting ailing (không khỏe, ốm yếu) state-owned enterprises (SOEs), saying it's akin to throwing money into a bottomless pit.
The planters have been placed at selected locations around the town centre as part of a Business Improvement District (BID) Discover King’s Lynn project that also includes hanging baskets and colourful bunting. BID manager Vicky Etheridge previously said there was not a "bottomless pit" to keep replacing the planters if they were vandalised (bị phá hoại).
Even for a bottomless pit of narcissism (tự yêu bản thân) like Donald Trump, Wednesday was an exceptional day for self-aggrandizement. Early in the day, Trump tweeted quotes from one of his more sycophantic (nịnh hót) — and unhinged (mất thăng bằng, rối rắm) — followers, Wayne Allyn Root, calling Trump the "King of Israel" and "the second coming of God."
