    FUCKING analysts are saying the american dollar will be worth 1.15$ Canadian before the end of the year.

I could have bought another house or two with the money I've lost because of that idiot.

On an individual basis we'll feel the pinch, but if your margins are so razor-thin that the loss of conversion makes you go under, then chances are your business was already on its last legs and you needed to strike off in new directions anyways.

                                                                                          There's a few things can be done to help cushion the blow here...

                                                                                          * Start cutting deals with people who pay in euros. The euro has been gaining steadily over the last couple years and it looks as though it's going to continue. Ditto with the UKP, AUD, Yen, and Rupee... at least, all in comparison with the USD. Diversification is always the best method to mitigate risk.

                                                                                          * Obtain a US funds account so you can perform your own currency speculation and sell when the CAD is down somewhat. There'll still be fluctuations even if it tops out at $1.15. Chances are it won't go any higher than that unless the US economy really starts to collapse on itself. Keep an eye on real estate... if that debt-bubble bursts, it'll be time to divest USD imo.

                                                                                          * If you aren't already, start hosting in the US. As their dollar goes down, so does your hosting costs!

                                                                                          For what it's worth, our economy has been powering along so well that even despite SARS, Mad Cow, and various illegal trade sanctions we've had yet another surplus year. The benefits of that are already being made manifest: witness today's historic agreement in big boosts for medicare.

                                                                                          So as much as you spite the bush regime and disdain the fiscal devastation its leaving in its wake, you can take comfort in knowing that Canada as a whole will benefit from the situation.

                                                                                                  We're all feeling the pinch, or at least everyone who earns in USD. We just have to adapt, either by expanding into other markets or into other industries.

                                                                                                  I know it feels good to bitch about it, but it doesn't accomplish much. Better to turn that energy into new ways of earning and finding how to best exploit the weak USD.

                                                                                                  Maybe this would be a good time for a call to get spammed by partners who pay in anything but USD...

Jan 28,2003 ($1.54) Bush does state of the union address where he says he's ready to attack Iraq without a UN mandate... the exchange rate starts to head down a bit.. sort of hard to tell for sure.. But war starts Mar 20th ($1.47) and the exchange heads on down "end of major combat" May 1 ($1.42) until about Mid June 20 ($1.34). Gone up and down a bit from there..

                                                                                                                  I don't know.. When you see the graph over the last 3.5 years it seems pretty obvious that the war triggered the drop.

                                                                                                                              ... and then check up on how much trade we do with the US in natural resources.
                                                                                                                              Too much work man. Took me longer to type the message than to get the data into Excel and make the graph.. Why don't you just "tell" me about it..

                                                                                                                              Besides, I'm sure things like crude oil prices etc. could also be attributed to the war. Or could be "spun" that way.

                                                                                                                                          I know it feels good to bitch about it, but it doesn't accomplish much. Better to turn that energy into new ways of earning and finding how to best exploit the weak USD.

                                                                                                                                          Maybe this would be a good time for a call to get spammed by partners who pay in anything but USD...

Jan 28,2003 ($1.54) Bush does state of the union address where he says he's ready to attack Iraq without a UN mandate... the exchange rate starts to head down a bit.. sort of hard to tell for sure.. But war starts Mar 20th ($1.47) and the exchange heads on down "end of major combat" May 1 ($1.42) until about Mid June 20 ($1.34). Gone up and down a bit from there..

                                                                                                                                                  Data exchange rates I used were actually higher than what one would get at the bank.

                                                                                                                                                  I don't know.. When you see the graph over the last 3.5 years it seems pretty obvious that the war triggered the drop.

It has gone up and down. I have both US and CDN bank accts. Both business and personal. I exchange as I see fit. Seeing as tho I get paid in both US and CDN dollars I don't feel as tho I am an idiot. Quite frankly, I can survive just fine off the CDN bank account while my US accounts flourish. I use the US money when paying in US and my personal US account when going to the US or anywhere else that accepts US currency. IMO the idiots are the ones that solely rely on the US $.

It has gone up and down. I have both US and CDN bank accts. Both business and personal. I exchange as I see fit. Seeing as tho I get paid in both US and CDN dollars I don't feel as tho I am an idiot. Quite frankly, I can survive just fine off the CDN bank account while my US accounts flourish. I use the US money when paying in US and my personal US account when going to the US or anywhere else that accepts US currency. IMO the idiots are the ones that solely rely on the US $.
