    What is a spekulant?

    I've looked it up but no joy. Appears on here a lot. More now than ever.

    Doesn't appear to mean anything. At least not in English. I could be wrong, of course...

    I believe it's meant to describe a speculator, investing in commodities or currencies.

            And commodities - gold, oil, rice, beans.

            I'm making a plan C out of it

            I have a duel screen set up at home -

            screen 1 - WoW/Plan B
            screen 2 - Forex charting software (plan C)

              1. Go to Google.co.uk

              2. Enter into search box: dirty spekulant

              3. Click "I am feeling lucky!"

              Sorted!
