I know nothing about business. The idea bores me and at some level probably frightens me. I associate most talk of money with that part of being a complete adult I will never achieve. I thought of this aphorism by Karl Kraus while pretending to listen to someone explain the meaning of "holding company":
"The most incomprehensible talk comes from people who have no other use for language than to make themselves understood."
This comes from Half-Truths & One-and-a-Half Truths: Selected Aphorisms, translated by Harry Zohn, Carcanet.
