Bankrupt
Bankruptcy in a dream marks collapse and depletion — affairs failing, faculties strained, a warning to leave risky ventures alone. The dream tends to touch the fear of losing what we have built, and to ask where we feel overextended, and whether it is time to pull back before the ground gives way.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for bankrupt, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
Denotes partial collapse in business, and weakening of the brain faculties. A warning to leave speculations alone.
Fontaine, 1862
A bad dream, your business is in a dangerous position, and without great care you will be forced to stop.
