"Well-off " nghĩa là giàu có, khá giả ngược lại là "be hard up". Nghĩa khác là trong tình thế có lợi, may mắn cho mình. "Be well off for (something)" lại có nghĩa là có đủ cái mình cần.
Ví dụ
The Dow Jones Industrial Average is down 235 points in early afternoon, well off its lows for the day. It crashed by 900 points in early trade, igniting a panic (gây hoảng loạn).
More than one-fifth of those earning more than $200,000 think they need an extra $10,000 a week to be “well-off”, while another fifth believe they need $20,000 or more per week to achieve that.
City were well off the pace at Sixfields, where they found themselves a goal down inside the first minute, and rarely has Taylor been so animated (sôi nổi) when giving his verdict (quyết định) after the game.
Rishi Sunak is looking at clawing back (thu hồi) nearly £1 billion from the well-off who dodge inheritance tax (trốn thuế thừa kế) to raise cash for Boris Johnson’s infrastructure splurge (phung phí) in the Budget.
