Why is a person that handles your money called a BROKER? Always Unabided: It is just a name man, you are thinking too much into it. I'm sure there is some convoluted etymological explanation out there but right now it means exactly what you said it does and that is all that matters. MercuryDragon: It comes from the word "brocour" which has the same meaning as broker; one who buys and sells. The present tense of broke is break, which comes the word "brechen" and means to burst, separate, or stop. Just two words that sound similar but have completely different meanings and origins. Like the poster above said, it's just a name and that's all that matters. It's an amusing coincidence though haha sammybabe10: What business is that i do this is what i do I teach people how to profit from digital currency or anyone who wants to i can show you a great way to earn big money in a short time if interested message me I also do property investment that gives 7 per cent guaranteed return in a growing 5 star destination with guaranteed 5 per cent yield ASK FOR FREE INFORMATION | Business Chat Room Similar Conversations |
