Sorry- it's killing me and I am not proud that I can't not post this: m = thousand and mm = million (thousand thousand) and mmm = billion. I'd have used K also

no worries was about to post it for u...ex-banker habits die hard

Sorry children, but in the financial markets (where I've made my living for 33 years) m = thousands, I have seen K used but mostly in the popular press and the comic strips ,not the financial press.
Obliously you all read read more of the latter than the former.

Obliously. Well typos happen.
I would like to retract my earlier post in this thread so as not to be associated with Buckhead Rick.
Edited in the interest of thread peace. It remains unedited to my great shame quoted in post #25

Personally, I found Buckhead Rick's response appropriate given the drubbing he received from others on this board who don't understand basic financial terms... I'm surprised you don't agree.
