accumulator 

1. Archaic term for a register. On-line use of it as a synonym for `register' is a fairly reliable indication that the user has been around for quite a while and/or that the architecture under discussion is quite old. The term in full is almost never used of microprocessor registers, for example, though symbolic names for arithmetic registers beginning in `A' derive from historical use of the term `accumulator' (and not, actually, from `arithmetic'). Confusingly, though, an `A' register name prefix may also stand for `address', as for example on the Motorola 680x0 family.

2. A register being used for arithmetic or logic (as opposed to addressing or a loop index), especially one being used to accumulate a sum or count of many items. This use is in context of a particular routine or stretch of code. "The FOOBAZ routine uses A3 as an accumulator."

3. One's in-basket (esp. among old-timers who might use sense 1).

speculate to accumulate 

A phrase used by potential profiteers to remind prospective investors that returns can only come from good investment. Really a buzzword (or buzzphrase) to get money from others to squander on fruitless and flowerly ideas. See European union, Belgium.
"Speculate to accumulate!" cried John, asking steve for the last crispy notes in his wallet. Eyeing up the tail at the bar, steve gladly turned over the contents of his wallet to John, who promptly brought the ladies a drink each. After some thirty minutes, John threw up over one of the fine females, making the money a write off due to his poor ability to handle drink. Steve's brother then started to insult one of the lasses, and they stormed off.
