elite world of City traders - even if, like Sally Nicoll, they are
numerically dyslexic? Sally is looking for a source of extra cash
to fund a sabbatical while she writes a novel, and decides spread

she's been credit blacklisted. Instead of being thankful for divine
intervention, she complains to the marketing department and is
hired to write an online trading blog. Bets and the City is based
on Sally's enormously popular column for Finspreads.In between the
funny bits, there's some really useful information: - Never take a
holiday in Cornwall when you're speculating on sterling against the
