Stop saying "leverages" unless you're describing lifting a heavy rock using a stick. The word you're looking for is "uses".

- dfc 15y agoIn addition to adding nothing to this thread your statement is incorrect. The oxford dictionary explicitly defines a figurative definition of leverage. If this usage bothers you I must caution you against working in a finance related field. One or two days would expose you to countless instances of using leverage in a figurative sense.
