A quick definition of prête-nom:

Term: PRÊTE-NOM

Definition: A prête-nom is someone who lets another person use their name for something.

A more thorough explanation:

PRÊTE-NOM

A prête-nom (pronounced pret-nohm) is someone who lends their name to another person or entity.

  • A businessman uses a prête-nom to register a company in their name, but the businessman is the one who actually runs the company.
  • A celebrity uses a prête-nom to purchase a property, so that their name is not publicly associated with the purchase.

These examples illustrate how a prête-nom can be used to conceal the true identity of the person or entity behind a transaction or business. The prête-nom is essentially a front or a cover for the actual person or entity involved.

seriously though, real bad time to be a scientist in america. or someone who wants to be one
at least the phd was "free" if you count getting paid $35k/year + free tuition to work 60–80h a wk
LSD+ is ad-free, with DMs, discounts, case briefs & more.
