自居

矮子丕平

这自然不是21世纪的新思维:自从教宗史提芬三世(Pope Stephen III)在公元8世纪接受法兰克国王矮子丕平(Pippin the Short)的土地馈赠,查理大帝(Charlemagne)又以教会保护人自居,历任教宗开始直辖今日意大利部分领土为"教皇国"(Papal States),

Yankee

洋基

当年的英国殖民者,不是曾经讥笑新英格兰人为小气鬼、乡巴佬"洋基"(Yankee)麼. 结果事与愿违,这壹蔑称,却被全美国人发扬光大了,不仅高唱"洋基嘟嘟进城去...",还用来命名国家球队. 处处以洋基自居,乐得以此为荣呢!

Managed Futures

管理期货
