Is it correct to say "I don't have money", or "any money". Why is 'any" obligatory?

Question

Answer

1. I don't have any money.
This sentence contains "not..any" = zero
Remember that. Any structure: "not any = zero"

2. I don't have money = I'm not rich
(I don't have money to buy expensive things)

Answer

I think you can use both according to the meaning you want to convey:
1- I don't have money= I don't have money in general, I don't have much money.
2-I don't have any money= I don't have money at all, perhaps the person who says this is broke or very poor.
Hope this helps :).
