喜樂美語

In this group, vested means that something has been onto a person so firmly that it can no longer be pulled off. A right that is vested is settled: every condition has been met, and the side that gave it cannot take it back. The pension use is the same picture with a calendar attached — once the years you had to stay are behind you, the money is fixed onto you and travels with you when you leave. And when a text says somebody has a vested interest, it is saying that a gain is already onto that person, which is why their opinion is not a neutral one.

這一組的 vested 可以想成：某樣東西已經牢牢綁在一個人身上，拔不下來了。權利一旦 vested，條件都達成了，給的一方不能再收回。退休金也是同一張圖，只是多了一本日曆：年資熬過去了，那筆錢就黏在你身上，離職也帶得走。再往前一步，說某人有 vested interest，意思是好處已經綁在他身上。所以他對這件事的意見不會是中立的。
