I think I want one of these.

According to various news reports, it was worth about €30 when it came out a little over two weeks ago. It buys a loaf of bread now. The government has just announced that it is lopping off twelve zeroes off the currency, and that all old currency will be declared worthless as of June 30th.



I can wait.

They're barely money now, since the government has declared that it's now legally okay to do business in foreign currency&dollars, euros, Namibia currency, whatever you have and someone wants.

Yeah, this is why I want one of these in particular. Now that they've given up, I think it's unlikely that they'll break $100 trillion on the next go-round...if there is one.

The flip side of this is that they might end up being more in demand as collectors items.
