Manages investments (5)
I believe the answer is:
copes
This could be a double definition.
'manages' is the first definition.
('cope' can be a synonym of 'manage')
'investments' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I cannot understand how one could define the other.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for copes that I've seen before include "Manages successfully, gets by" , "'Manages, gets by (5)'" , "Somehow manages" , "Manages; church vestments" .)
