I have no idea where this tab actually came from, but I'd sure be curious to know.

I have a feeling it is not in dollars American. Maybe it is in Hungarian forrants....ha ha ha. That exchange rate is crazy!
Does anyone know how many international currencies use the dollar sign ($) as we do?
Turns out this is photo is from Zimbabwe. See http://freakonomics.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/06/06/a-license-to-print-money/
Cool. Even though its a Z$, its still mind boggling!!! I know in Europe it is a sight against normal reason to get under 2.58 in change and get all coins (they have only $1 COINS no bills). It would be equally weird to get a bill of this proportion, even in the correct amount of Z$. Our minds sort of get in a rut of thinking.
I wonder if people in Z walk around with Z$1 billion bills all the time. That would be fun.
Along similar lines, would you pay this much to eat with Warren Buffet? http://www.usatoday.com/money/world/2008-06-28-buffett_N.htm?loc=interstitialskip
I'd ask him if he could reimburse me. I wonder who's paying for the food? :-)
