wonder how much panic there will be when it hits 1:1 and below. wasn't there a bunch of concern when the USD was below 100 JP yen at one point? it's at 120 now and falling...

I know it sucks...

The less the euro is worth the more money I receive. So I wouldn't mind if the dollar became stronger again.

GO DOLLAR !

I think you guys in Europe gotta get used to the fact that the Euro will be a strong stable currency and the Euro and US dollar will probably be close to 1:1 for a long time.

FlyingIguana · 06-25-2002, 02:44 PM

i lost 3 cents for every american dollar this past week. pos dollar. you americans need pretty colors for your money.

MrBrian · 06-25-2002, 02:45 PM

i stock up in gold and diamonds

FlyingIguana · 06-25-2002, 02:46 PM

how long can gold keep going up tho?

TheFLY · 06-25-2002, 02:58 PM

Last I checked, gold has been losing its value for the last 10-20 years.

There's a long story behind it -- basically the powerful governments of the world don't want money backed by gold... the value of it has been artificially deflated by them... but that sortof makes sense anyway -- gold isn't very useful in a practical sense unless you're a pimp or a rapper.

Anyhow I hope this means we will get more signups from Europe now that they can better afford our paysites ;)

FlyingIguana · 06-25-2002, 03:01 PM

didn't gold recently have an upward run?

Dont worry I think dollar will go back up

The US will invade France and our dollar will recover.

Ron2k1 · 06-25-2002, 03:35 PM

Even though I make more euro's with a weak euro and a strong dollar, I still think it's good that the euro will be kinda equal to the dollar. In the end it's better for all of us I think

FreeOnes · 06-25-2002, 03:41 PM

I'm suffering hard of the declining dollar too !

The dollar has already dropped against the euro with 15% since the beginning of 2002. I still feel stupid that I didn't hedge some of my funds
