Also you are doing the math wrong. A person in the UK is paying 4.39 Euros per gallon of gas. A person in the US is paying about $4 for a gallon of gas. If the UK person was making 40,000 euros and the US person was making $40,000 when the dollar and euro were worth the same the UK person is now making the equivalent of $64,000 a year. So the difference isn't nearly as bad as you are making it out to be.

UK doesn't have the euro you cock and the math is correct!

http://www.petrolprices.com/
Average: 110.8p per LITRE

1 US gallon = 3.78541178 litres

110.8 x 3.78541178 = 419.423625224

4.19 Sterling = $8.17 converted at http://www.xe.net/

do you think that in UK to work someones wage out they look at what they make in the US and change the symbol to our currency?!

US average wage 2006: $38,651
UK average wage 2007: £23,244

if the dollar wasn't at an all time low theres realy not much in it


People in uk drive small 30mpg 4 bangers and TDI's where people in USA drive 10mpg F150's and whine about gas prices!!!

Oil is stable in relation to gold price. Supply and demand has little to do with the price of oil. It is the falling dollar that has oil so high. If the dollar was stable a gallon of gas should be around $1.50 to $2ish. Gas price is the best indicator for the true inflation rate. That is why the fed does not use gas price in calculating inflation so they can hide the cold reality. :2 cents:

Uhmm... with the exception of a few days here and there, I think oil has been hitting all new highs every day for a few years now.


Yes. All time high. Highest price that a barrel has ever been in history. It hasn't been hitting highs every day. Do you follow this?

That is where the real problem starts unless you are earning something else other than the USD. You then have to worry about how the USD holds up against the new currency in the country you reside, and all over the world it is losing. It's getting a LOT more expensive for expats to earn USD and live abroad.

Of course the price of oil and food is rising on a global scale so you're going to feel the pinch regardless of where you are. However, you would feel it even worse when you move out of the USA because the dollar is so weak now. Though, if you earn in a strong currency, don't sweat it and MOVE TODAY!!!
