It was the first time I visited New York and went to the Wall Street Visitor Centre (not sure of its proper name). The guided tour that took in views of the trading floor promised, as these things tend to, to be simple – it started out that way but I recall it soon became extremely complicated, and there was born my cynicism toward the language financial institutions use.<br /><br />That was a good number of years ago. Is it still the same? Probably. At least I can justify another trip to NYC to find out.Robert Hempsallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16487999728879204635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8114548047393233607.post-82434443320959461762012-01-18T16:37:21.401+13:002012-01-18T16:37:21.401+13:00Monkey?
