Yeah, I work in Tesco, and everytime I see someone else get handed one of these, the checkout lad freezes in fear, not knowing if they can accept it or not, and too scared of offending the guy handing them the note to ask if it's real money or not.

I laugh each and every time, until I give the wrong change due to mistaking the value of the note.

I did that recently too. I paid in US Dollars, got change in Euros, and then went home to the UK and had to use pounds.

I have such a clusterfuck of different currencies. I'll tell you what though, of all of them, Aussie dollars are the worst of all. They're legitimately like monopoly money.

English money is legal all over the UK, and in dependencies that use "Pound Sterling".

Scottish and N. Irish are technically only accepted in their own countries but most English places accept them.

Gibraltar, Jersey, Guernsey Pounds are all accepted in their own territories as equivalent to Pound Sterling but aren't technically accepted in the UK itself, but no-one really cares cause it's normally just change.

WHY IS EVERYTHING SO FUCKING EXPENSIVE THERE HOLY SHIT

I went skiing there a couple of weeks ago and fucking hell it's ridiculous. How can you even afford to get drunk? I'm not a poorfag but those prices were mental.

[Anonymous No.3788]

>>3745
Because you get a higher pay here. In the end it's about the same ratio in every country.

But yeah, places where you can do Skiing are kind a lot more of expensive than other places in Switzerland.

I suppose ski resorts would be more expensive, yeah. For what it's worth, I had a great time and would definitely go back (if I had a bit more money)

[Anonymous No.6766]

Holy shit, someone mentioned Canada. This is an unfortunately rare occurrence.

TBH, CAD relies too much on USD to be rated much higher. Once we get more free trade with other powerhouses then we can rely on the US less.

the idea of a currency is that it's backed by something. it doesn't have intrinsic value, its value is in what's backing it (i.e. gold, CPU cycles or faith in the US government)

>A promise to pay the same currency

Sorry to push to point but doesn't that seem circular

If 100 trillion Zim dollars is a promise to pay 100 trillion Zim dollars - that means really only that you can exchange it for itself

seems like a meaningless tautology - I don't imagine the Zim dollar is backed by anything of actual value - because otherwise it wouldn't be in the 100 trilllion dollar range - seems weird

yeah that's not true, currency doesn't need to have anything backing it or intrinsic value for it to be valuable and usable as a currency. It just needs enough people who agree that it has value

also bitcoins are backed by cpu cycles? lol the fuck is that
