What's 200 Words Have To Do With Your Computer?

When I worked on Wall Street, I considered a move from one type of bond department to a new type of department. Even though I had been successful in the industry for 7 years, I was still afraid I that I wouldn't know how to be successful in my new department. Then I spoke with one of the other traders, George Adelle, who was also moving to the new department, about my fears. He said I'd do fine... I'd just need to learn some new words and a different way to do the math on this security. This conversation forced me to think and what I ended up realizing was that all that separates one thing from another is learning 200 new words! That's not only true for securities... it's true for so many things in life. Take computers. They come with 200 new words you need to learn. Using email means learning a list of 200 acronyms.
