The US $ is starting to SUCK again
 
just did a transfer to Cdn got 1,10.04 for 1US :disgust

Yngwie 05-22-2009 01:58 PM

ya, it's dropping fast.

The Duck 05-22-2009 01:59 PM

Why I prefer to deal in Euros when possible, which is hardly ever.

spunky99 05-22-2009 02:08 PM

ya.. got 1.09 today :(

DWB 05-22-2009 02:09 PM

You ain't seen nothing yet.

All the printing and propping they have been doing is going to cause a serious drop in the USD. It will rebound sooner or later unless the world drops the USD for the standard currency (China and Brazil already pushing for this), but the USA is about to take its medicine.

I've already moved most of my money out of USD and into other currencies. If you have the option to do so, I would do the same.

pornguy 05-22-2009 02:10 PM

Still ok for me. 13.19 for 1 US Dollar Should get stronger soon.

pornguy 05-22-2009 02:11 PM

By the way Spunky, your avatar has a VERY nice rack.

dready 05-22-2009 02:15 PM

Let's hope for a rebound.

borked 05-22-2009 02:27 PM

Yeah I know - I have a few outstanting US$ bills from a couple of clients - the longer they drag their heals, the less I get paid.... I now only deal in Euros, that way what I bill I know I get paid - Screw this gambling on how much the final pay will be

borked 05-22-2009 02:30 PM

in 4 weeks, I lost $450 - and then people take offence when I tag on 10% when payments are a month over due grrrr

JP-pornshooter 05-22-2009 04:05 PM

what happens when you let the feds print as much green as they like.. sooner or later its gonna bite us real hard.

few currencies will do well, canadian $? its largest trading partner is US and they aint trading much currently so what will that do to the cdn?
gold might not be a bad place..

Mutt 05-22-2009 04:12 PM

summer - they jack up gas prices as always when they know people are going to be driving a lot more - Canadian dollar goes up in value. that's my simple economics.

Klen 05-22-2009 04:13 PM

Here also horrible,though it is because HRK is stronger now against all currencies because of plus on stock market.I hope it will be better soon.

Nurgle 05-22-2009 05:45 PM

Si 05-22-2009 05:51 PM

I cashed my us dollars 5 days ago for 85c per canadian dollar.

don't forget summer is coming :) the canadian dollar always gets stronger in the summer then drops again around november.

AssPirate 05-22-2009 06:13 PM

it's a slow painful descent before the situation improves.

webgurl 05-22-2009 07:35 PM

a month ago it was 0.77 to the dollar ! Thats just last month !!!!!!!!!!!

Mutt 05-22-2009 07:43 PM

good time to buy American dollars - and wait - within a year you'll at least make 10% on your money.

Niktamer 05-22-2009 07:46 PM

Are you a canadian?

I've only been here for a year and I already notice a pattern.

may-september the canadian dollar gets strong against the usd or even stronger then in november it dops, and FAST!

AAB 05-22-2009 08:18 PM

good time to renew your domain names as they work out less per CAD$ while exchange rate is favorable :)

Our gas prices here are already through the fucking roof again... :disgust

irbobo 05-23-2009 03:02 AM

well let's do some REALLY basic economics here people... A certain country creates trillions of dollars seemingly out of thin air... actually they didn't. They devalued their currency so that they can temporarily enjoy screwing the future out of future earnings. Thus.. you think inflation is bad now.. wait till the fallout from this so called "bailout".

Man, you guys got taken for a mean ride.

yeah, I noticed that as well, they are clawing back the reductions from the past few months:disgust

CarlosTheGaucho 05-23-2009 04:11 AM

Time to spend more in USD - the only way to offset this!
