idiom
Dear Teachers,
In the following please explain to me what is meant by (glitzy surface,
financial whizzkids, a bedsit in a queer street)
Beneath the glitzy surface, the financial whizzkids of the world are mostly
on the road to alcoholism, lonliness, a bedsit in a queer street or sometimes all three

Re: idiom
glitzy = it looks bright and attractive on the surface
whizzkid = someone very successful at a young age
bedsit = studio apartment (bed + sitting room together)
queer street = trouble
