爱德华·博克《爱德华·博克自传》· The Americanization of Edward Bok · 领导
Edward keenly felt the responsibility placed upon him. He could never clearly diagnose his feelings when he saw his teacher in this new light. The broker's "customers" had been hinted at, and the boy of eighteen wondered how far his responsibility went, and how many persons were involved. But the deal came out all right, for when, three days afterward, the contract was made public, Western Union, of course, skyrocketed, Jay Gould sold out, Edward sold out, the teacher-broker sold out, and all the customers sold out!

白话
爱德华深感责任重大。看到老师以这种新身份出现,他理不清自己的感受。有人暗示过经纪人的“客户”是谁,这个十八岁的男孩想知道自己的责任范围有多大、牵涉多少人。但交易顺利收场:三天后合同公开,西联股价当然一飞冲天,杰伊·古尔德卖出,爱德华卖出,老师兼经纪人卖出,所有客户也都卖出!
上下文
博克回忆录中,他因内幕消息跟风买入西联股票,并发现主日学老师也在利用同一消息操作。
今日一问
如果你的一个决定会间接影响许多不知情的人,你会怎样衡量自己的责任边界?
