Holy shit, Ausfailia, how is this affecting your travel plans?
I dunno, I'm not from Oz.

glad i hadnt organised to go to yurop or j-pan around now
So long as the $Battler's back to acceptable rates by May next year, I'm happy (going to Hongers, hope to duel with Jackie Chan).
Horribly. I booked a trip to Japan when the dollar was near parity with the American dollar. Now I'm up shit creek and will most likely have to sit in Kansai airport for three weeks. Fucking ridiculous shit fuck fuck fuck cunt.
the worse the world economy gets the better the dollar will fair. LOL. but it's not really good for us b/c of the fact that american companies have benefited from a weaker dollar. but on another note, the euro has been losing ground... (thank the deity above) that is one currency that is highly overvalued (apparently liquidity is the foundation of EU's wealth and lack of it has an adverse effect on its economy). and as an extension of the op comments, Canadianfags are your travel plans compromised now that the canadian dollar has lost parity with the real dollar? (eurofags i will ask you this same question in about three months, britfags i have no quarrel with you)
>>80713They were at parity for like a year, and it was worth less before that, its not like they got used to it
>>80713Time to hit the strip clubs in Niagara again. Woo!
this shit is sweet for americans in europe now. SEK was at 5.7 last year now 8.2
I just came back from iceland and it was 1 dollar to 140 ISK when you it used to be 1$ to about 60 ISK it was fucking sweet.
depressed canadian here
Shit sucks, I am going to Japan in February, hopefully the dollar fairs up.
FUCK YEAH US DOLLARThe worldwide recession is really helping the value of our dollar
I don't think I understand the whole currency exchange thing properly-does the exchange rate really matter when the cost of goods is adjusted accordingly? I always thought shit in Europe and Britain just costs less since their currency is worth more, is this not so?
if the dollar here gets back to .80-.90 USD in 2 years, ill be happy
>>80897It affects the price of imports obviously, everything else indirectly
I don't understand how our mental-disabled cousin, New Zealand, can keep pace with our dollar. They don't have anything of value to export...
>>81469www.xe.com1 USD = 1.85224 NZD1 NZD = 0.539888 USD
>>81476I think they meant Australian dollar
>>They don't have anything of value to export...What about Kiwis?
Still Latvia kicks everyone's ass!!!1.00 US DOLLAR (USD) = 0.5526 LATVIAN LAT (LVL)

Latvian Dollar sucks cock too.Kuwaiti dinar kicks ass1.00 USD = 0.272275 KWD
>>80711>>80881This, me and my girlfriend bought plane tickets for February when 1AUD ~= 100JPY, now it's down to like 59. It sucks so much, hell, I'd be happy if it reached 70-80 by February now.
>>81508It used to be better. It's probably being devaluated for the coming switch to the Euro.
