Some phrases

[EnglishStudent]

I have read these phrases, but I´m not sure about their meaning, can you help me?

Before long...

We are never going to make a living

You have what it takes

Thank you

"Before long" usually means "soon, shortly, pronto." :)

"We are never going to make a living" means "We will not earn enough money to live comfortably."

"You have what it takes" means the same as "You can do it, you are capable, you have ability to do it."

I hope this helps...

[Eric]

I think that pretty much sums it up.
