My assistant, quiet, no code, AI supports, listen to the context, save the person’s voice and provide some lines that you can actually say loudly. More powerful meetings with the script engine library I started with…

Unlike almost all bonds, loans pay a floating rather than a fixed rate of interest. That means no capital losses (or gains) if the US Treasury bond prices fall (or rise).
