To be completely broke, in total financial ruin with no money at all. When you're 'en la olla,' your bank account is at zero and payday feels like a mirage.

Being at your peak, full of energy, and doing everything right with no apparent effort. When you're unstoppable and everything you touch turns to pure success — nobody can beat you.

A shameless, brazen person who does whatever they want without caring what anyone thinks. In the Dominican Republic, someone with cuero has zero shame and maximum audacity.

Being completely distracted, daydreaming, or disconnected from what's happening around you. When your body is present but your mind traveled to another planet and people need to repeat things three times.
