Loanarranger: /lone ar rayn jer/ When Mary opened an account at the local bank, she was hoping to borrow enough money to finance a new home. She soon realized that the money she would borrow would cost her five times again as much in interest and that virtually she never would really own her home, in her lifetime. The interest that this loanarranger charged her went towards expensive lifestyles and foolish investment decisions of the bank’s executives. She stormed out of the bank manager’s office, crying “Goodbye, accrual world!” Etymology: Loan Arranger (institute/person who lends money at an exhorbitant interest rate) & Wordplay on The Lone Ranger (1950’s tv Western series of a lone surviving Texas Ranger who was nursed back to health by the Indian Tonto rides with him, on Silver and Scout, throughout the West, doing good while living off a silver mine which supplies him with income and bullets) Created by: Nosila.

Fannymayiyesimay: /ˈfani:meɪ:i:jÉ›s:i:meɪ/ As an only child in an adult’s body, the 30 year old banking prodigy Gerry Meander loved his job in global finance. Growing up alone meant he got everything he wanted and was self sufficient (if not satisfied). Gerry was quite happy playing with (er..) himself and “Simple Simon said” whatever Gerry demanded. Mother just kept on giving. And, as he became expert in answering his own questions, job self satisfaction was always guaranteed. So much so, Gerry founded his own bank “FannyMayiYesiMay”. And it was so, Simple Simon said. Etymology: Conglomeration of 1 – Fannie Mae: A bust bank and apparent epicenter of a global finance crisis 2 – Mother may I, the response in the playground role-play game “Simple Simon”, where one child plays mother and the other children play Simon.
