"Note that you don't spend bits to put bits on Investment Firm, but modify whatever effect is putting bits into your pool. So restrictions on spending those bits don't apply. Therefore, you can convert normally-specialized bits into Investment bits."

Trivia
"Investment Firm" did not make it into the French Set due to a printing error, therefore the french set only has 363 cards (instead of 364 like v1.0).
The card's french name is "Cabinet d'investissement". |

help me understand this card...
Could it read "You may take [1] from I.F., if it has any at the start of each of your turns..."
This reading would make it a choice ie may/or may not, on the other hand...
Could it read "You Must take [1] from I.F., if it has any at the start of each of your turns..."
That would make it Mandatory...but that would not make any sence would it?

If it has any bit, you MUST take it. The card would state it, if you'd have the choice.
Furthermore, I have one question. Does anybody know why this card is missing in the french base set ???
