English to Spanish translations [PRO] Bus/Financial - Investment / Securities / Market forecast
English term or phrase: "live to tomorrow" I am translating a PPT for the employees of a large corporation regarding the situation of their particular industry, and they discuss what's going on in the markets and how they are changing because of the global crisis. One of those changes is: Private equity enters with ‘live to tomorrow’ mentality I think they mean something to the effect of "aguantar hasta mañana" o "sobrevivir un día más" in Spanish, but I am not 100% sure, and I had never seen this expression (using this preposition, I mean) before. Any ideas?? Thanks!	bunnie KudoZ activity Questions: 54 (2 open) (3 without valid answers) (3 closed without grading) Answers: 249 United States Local time: 12:30
"Vivir hasta mañana" / Sálvese quien pueda Explanation: Han entrado a una mentalidad de llegar hasta despertar mañana, o sea, de supervivencia o de muy corto plazo, como bien has entendido. Tal vez, "live till tomorrow" hubiese sido menos cacofónico, pero es lo que significa ese "to tomorrow" hasta mañana En buen español escribiría: "Sálvese quien pueda". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 35 minutos (2009-01-30 22:32:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- El libro se llama en inglés: Devil Take the Hindmost: A History of Financial Speculation by Edward Chancellor	Selected response from: Alfredo Vargas United States Local time: 11:30
