'for example i get in the way' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'financial assets' is the wordplay.
'financial' becomes 'block' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'assets' becomes 'capital' (I have seen 'liquid assets' mean 'capital' so perhaps 'assets' could also mean 'capital').
'block'+'capital'='BLOCK CAPITAL'

'of' is the link.
