註釋The Executive's Almanac is an entertaining collection of facts and figures covering all aspects of business--from the assembly line to the bottom li≠ from the stock market to the supermarket.

A sample of what's in store:

* The ratio of the salaries of the average worker to the average CEO is 301 to 1.
* As of 2004, 8.3 million people in the world have $1 million to invest, spend, or save.
* Blue Chip stocks got their name from poker, where blue chips are more valuable than white or red.
* Starbucks was named for the first mate in Herman Melville's novel Moby Dick.
* The New York Stock Exchange ticker symbol for Mauna Loa is NUT; Men's Wearhouse is SUIT;
* Sotheby's is BID; and Genentech is DNA.
