Sounds good “Innit”?

The 2011 Scrabble dictionary has been published this week and it contains some 3000 new words including "Innit", "Nang" and "Punaany". Acronyms and techno-speak seem to dominate the society we live in. There is not a day goes by without some strange use-age of words and letters popping up in less than contextual circumstances.

Financial services has it's fair share with acronyms like TCF, QROPS, ARROW, QE and many many more.

We seem to be unable to escape the constant barrage of terms like "Winningest" or Job Titles such as "Wealth Architect".

Where will all this lead? We would like to hear from Panacea members what terms, titles and acronyms they find the most bizarre, irritating or just plain stupid. A bottle of Champagne will go to the best list.
