Bearer securities salesman Explanation: see http://books.google.com/books?id=JaRWwRN6QJcC&pg=PA116&lpg=P... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_(finance)#Bearer_secur... Bearer securities are completely negotiable and entitle the holder to the rights under the security (e.g. to payment if it is a debt security, and voting if it is an equity security). They are transferred by delivering the instrument from person to person. In some cases, transfer is by endorsement, or signing the back of the instrument, and delivery. |

Bearer shares/securities salesman Explanation: Je ne sais pas pourquoi ca pose un probleme avant 1929, periode a laquelle meme les cireurs de chaussures donnaient des tuyaux de placement. Apres le Black Tuesday, je comprends que cela devienne plus problématique d'essayer d'écouler des titres qui ne valaient pas la papier sur lequel ils étaient imprimés. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 17 mins (2010-01-12 14:48:00 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- On trouve le mot "salesman" dans les contrats de ventes d'actions. Dealer, c'est pas du porte à porte. C'est un peu l'équivalent de broker, c.-à-d. courtier. |

bond salesman Explanation: I went hunting for good references in English to Clinton Eastwood, Snr, and found this: ...1930 Clinton Eastwood Jr., oldest child of Clinton Eastwood Sr., a bond salesman, and Ruth Runner Eastwood, is born on 31 May in San Francisco. ... -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 58 mins (2010-01-12 15:29:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- As this is a real person, I don't think there's much sense in reinventing the wheel regarding the name of his profession. Found a few more links, and a variant – 'bonds salesman'. READER'S DIGEST: http://www.readersdigest.com.au/life/rd-face-to-face-clint-e... And here, from KIRKUS: http://www.amazon.com/Clint-Eastwood-Riding-Douglas-Thompson... Bond sales are an issue in one of Eastwood Jnr's films: http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2006/dec/15/3 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 hrs (2010-01-12 21:59:37 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Rather, 'as this is a real person who lived and worked in an Anglophone country'!
