職場(chǎng)雙語(yǔ)：英國的百萬(wàn)富翁少了一半
Suddenly everyone is talking about disappearing millionaires.
突然之間，人人都在談?wù)摬粩嘞У陌偃f(wàn)富翁們。
Tuesday there was The Wall Street Journal talking about the vanishing Maryland millionaires. Now comes word that Britain has lost about half its millionaires.
周二，《華爾街日報》有篇文章談到了美國馬里蘭州百萬(wàn)富翁越來(lái)越少�，F在有消息說(shuō)，英國的百萬(wàn)富翁人數減少了約一半。
The reason isn’t emigration or tax revolts. It is personal finances.
這并不是因為富翁們移民或是避稅去了，而是個(gè)人財務(wù)狀況出了問(wèn)題。
As I have been writing for the past year, the rich have been hammered by this crisis, largely because of the plunge in the value of their investments and real estate. As a result, the millionaire population (especially the lower end) is taking a dive.
正如過(guò)去一年中我所寫(xiě)的，富人們在此次危機中遭受了重創(chuàng )，原因主要是他們的投資和房地產(chǎn)的價(jià)值銳減。正因為如此，百萬(wàn)富翁（特別是富翁中的“貧困戶(hù)”）的人數驟減。
Early estimates say the millionaire population in the U.S. fell 30% last year. Now, it seems Britain’s millionaire population has fallen an astounding 50%.
根據初步估計，去年美國的百萬(wàn)富翁人數減少了30%。如今，看起來(lái)英國的百萬(wàn)富翁人數減少了50%，太令人震驚了。
The number, from the Centre for Economics and Business Research, is surprising for several reasons. Britain’s Rich Listers lost about 38% of their wealth. And I would have expected America’s millionaires to have done just as poorly as Britain’s have - if not worse, given that the U.S. is the epicenter of the financial crisis.
這項由經(jīng)濟暨商業(yè)研究中心(Centre for Economics and Business Research)公布的`數據令人吃驚的原因有幾個(gè)。英國富人損失了約38%的資產(chǎn)。鑒于美國是金融危機的重災區，我本來(lái)預計美國的百萬(wàn)富翁境況會(huì )和英國的一樣糟，甚至更遭。
