Kirjan tiivistelmä

Larry, tarkkaavainen rahoitusmarkkinoiden tarkkailija, kertoo kulkunsa spekulatiivisessa maailmassa, jossa intuitio, strategia ja kylmähermoisuus ovat olennaisia. Hän kuvaa onnistumisiaan, virheitään ja psykologisia mekanismeja, jotka vaikuttavat sijoituspäätöksiin. Kokemustensa kautta hän paljastaa näkymättömiä sääntöjä, jotka ohjaavat markkinoita ja ihmisten käyttäytymistä. Kertomus tarjoaa konkreettisen sukelluksen spekulaatioon korostaen kurinalaisuutta ja ajatuksen selkeyttä. Kirjailija esittää suoran ja pragmaattisen pohdinnan riskistä, mahdollisuudesta ja itsehillinnästä.

Näyte

Jokainen kohta opiskelemallasi kielellä, käännös heti sen alla.

나는 초등학교를 갓 마치자마자 일을 시작했다.

I went to work when I was just out of grammar school.

증권 중개 사무소에서 시세판을 맡는 사환 자리를 얻었다.

I got a job as quotation-board boy in a stock-brokerage office.

나는 숫자에 밝았다.

I was quick at figures.

학교에서는 세 해 치 산수를 한 해 만에 끝냈다.

At school I did three years of arithmetic in one.

특히 암산을 잘했다.

I was particularly good at mental arithmetic.

시세판 사환으로서 나는 고객

As quotation-board boy I posted the numbers on the big board in the customers’

대기실에 걸린 큰 시세판에 숫자를 적어 넣었다.

room.

고객 가운데 한 사람이 대개 시세 표시기 옆에 앉아 가격을 소리 내어 불러 주었다.

One of the customers usually sat by the ticker and called out the prices.

아무리 빨리 불러도 나는 너끈히 따라갔다.

They couldn’t come too fast for me.

나는 숫자라면 언제나 기억해 냈다.

I have always remembered figures.

전혀 어렵지 않았다.

No trouble at all.

그 사무소에는 다른 직원도 많았다.

There were plenty of other employes in that office.

물론 나는 다른 동료들과 친해졌지만,

Of course I made friends with the other fellows,

내가 하던 일은,

but the work I did,

시장이 활발할 때면,

if the market was active,

오전 열 시부터

kept me too busy from ten A.M.

오후 세 시까지

to three P.M.

나를 어찌나 바쁘게 하는지 이야기를 나눌 틈이 거의 없었다.

to let me do much talking.

잡담은 좋아하지 않는다,

I don’t care for it,

어차피,

anyhow,

업무 시간에는.

during business hours.

하지만 시장이 바쁘다고 해서 일에 대해 생각하지 않은 것은 아니었다.

But a busy market did not keep me from thinking about the work.

그 시세들은 나에게 주식의 가격을 뜻하지 않았다,

Those quotations did not represent prices of stocks to me,

한 주에 몇 달러라는 식의 가격을.

so many dollars per share.

그것은 숫자였다.

They were numbers.

물론,

Of course,

그 숫자들에도 의미는 있었다.

they meant something.

숫자들은 늘 변했다.

They were always changing.

내가 관심을 둘 것은 오직 그것뿐이었다 —

It was all I had to be interested in —

그 변화.

the changes.

왜 변했을까?

Why did they change?

나는 몰랐다.

I didn’t know.

상관하지도 않았다.

I didn’t care.

그런 것은 생각하지 않았다.

I didn’t think about that.

그저 숫자가 변한다는 것을 보았을 뿐이다.

I simply saw that they changed.

매일 다섯 시간, 토요일에는 두 시간 동안 내가 생각해야 할 것은 그것뿐이었다.

That was all I had to think about five hours every day and two on Saturdays:

숫자가 늘 변한다는 것.

that they were always changing.

Kaksikielisen menetelmän edut Rivi riviltä synkronoitu -asettelussa

Jokaisen alkutekstin rivin alla on sen käännös, täsmälleen samalla kohdalla. Et joudu koskaan etsimään, missä menet: silmä siirtyy yhden rivin alaspäin ja löytää juuri sen lauseen, jonka se äsken luki. Tämä on taitto, jolla voi tarttua kirjaan heikosti hallitulla kielellä ilman että ote katkeaa – ja verrata tekstejä lähes sana sanalta.
