Congrats to Paraguay for having money even uglier than U.S. money. Also, a five cent note for Canadian Tire?

We used to have the best-looking banknotes in the world.

I remember wanting to get one of those 1 trillion dollar notes from Zimbabwe and just googled it to see how much they were. Holy crap I didn't know exactly how fucked up it got.

"The Zimbabwean government stated that it would credit 5 US dollars to domestic bank accounts, with balances of up to 175 quadrillion Zimbabwean dollars, and that it would exchange Zimbabwean dollars for US dollars at a rate of 1 USD to 35 quadrillion Zimbabwean dollars to accounts with balances above 175 quadrillion Zimbabwean dollars":eek:

$1 US was equal to $35,000,000,000,000,000 by the time that shit show ended and you had to have at least $175,000,000,000,000,000 in your account to even qualify for any sort of reimbursement.
