Money - split from 'Purchasing Question?'

[Anthony Parsons]

$ = crap going to fail
£ = don't know who it will act, it's hard to say
€ = more stable in the long term. win over $.

Don't really get this one... European dollar is in chaos at present... the UK is in a huge financial down turn as well, completely agree that the US$ is crap, however; the Australian currency is also $ and it is currently the strongest in the world of all financial economies globally.

Who is the chick on the bills? She's kind of sexy.

Is at about US$0.72, highest I've ever seen it. Not good for our export industry, but makes XF cheaper for me

Tempting... but you guys will just tease me all day and make me say Fish and Chips over and over

Yeah I know lots are loving the high AUD right now, Amazon must be making a fortune in Book Sales!

I love English notes, if anything the Euro looks like monopoly money! and dollars just don't excite me.

I prefer the Japanese Yen notes We have 1,000, 2,000, 5,000 and 10,000 denominations in paper notes.

For coins: 500, 100, 50, 10, 5 and 1.

My least favorite currency is the Vietnam dong, feels like a napkin. :S

The yen is quite strong, especially against the U.S. dollar. Nice for buying stuff online in US dollars and traveling. (10,000 yen comes out to about $119.53 USD as of today, XenForo will cost about 8,370 yen)

I like foreign currencies in general... just something different. I like the one's that are easy, not like US currency and some others. I like clearly identifiable notes and coins, via size and colour. Euro's look pretty cool nowadays.

TBF it's not 'real' money as it's not issued by a 'real' country:

"The Principality of Sealand is a micronation located on HM Fort Roughs, a former World War II Maunsell Sea Fort in the North Sea 10 km (six miles) off the coast of Suffolk, England (51°53'40"N, 1°28'57"E)." wikipedia

Our notes are just cool these days, especially the pretty much indestructible plastic they are made from... http://www.rba.gov.au/banknotes/types/index.html
