David Davis resigns as Brexit secretary: So, will the Brexit hardliners topple May, or will she manage to push things along for long enough for the EU to bounce back the whitepaper they're still producing with the strategy that Davis is resigning over?

It's the needing an such acronym so that there is absolutely no doubt about it that gives me pause. I suppose if you are that rich you can have any acronym you like, but: really?

"High Net Worth" is a term I bump into in the finance world all the time when talking about customers. Doesn't surprise me that there's a term for the high end of those. How else will you know who to sell yachts to?

Is the word "rich" considered vulgar? Why create an acronym when a perfectly good word already exists?
