The purpose of this thread is to post words, acronyms, ect. that you might be familiar with but others might not. Maybe you don't understand a word and you don't want to hi-jack another thread. Post them here! Words can be from any industry but should be related to business. (Real Estate, E-Commerce,...) This is a great way to build your financial literacy and vocabulary!

I'll start it off.

NDA- Non-Disclosure Agreement

ROI- Return on Investment

SFR- Single Family Residence

USPTO- United States Patent & Trademark Office

HELOC home equity line of credit - aka your home equity is your credit card
