Phrase portfolio
Text The word "portfolio," in this podcast, means the combination of different stocks, bonds, and other investments that a person has: "How often do you review your portfolio with your stockbroker?" A "portfolio" can also be samples of an artist's work: "The painter's portfolio includes landscapes and portraits." Or, "The sculptor takes photographs of all her sculptures so that she can put them in her portfolio." For a professional model, a "portfolio" is a collection of photographs that show his or her beauty: "All the models were asked to bring their portfolio to the interview." Finally, sometimes a "portfolio" is a briefcase, or the small container that is used to hold business papers or samples of one's work: "Oh no! I accidentally left my portfolio in the taxi."
