in Uk it means that you are gonna be short some money due to something generally unexpected. I.e. hit your car get it fixed, you'll be out of pocket

Out of pocket means you pay for it with your own money rather than another source. Eg. Insurance copays.

out of pocket started as "out of money", Journalism used it for doing things that wouldn't be covered as an expense

It’s from a football term, I think. When the quarterback is flushed out of the pocket, he is outside the protected plan and things could get dicey
