The US Dollar sinks still

Today the US Dollar is worth 70 cents against the EURO.

 

Therefore if traveling to Europe I'd suggest that one take twice the dollar amount they think that they'll need.

"Therefore if traveling to Europe I'd suggest that one take twice the dollar amount they think that they'll need..."

And to Russia, too. Today $1 = about 25 Russian rubles, while not so long ago it was 30 and more.

Funny you should bring this up, Richard - a friend of mine was speculating that the best way to tour Europe right now would be via a cruise.

First one must be able to afford a cruise...

---devaluation is a two way street --more tourists will come here because
their money is now more valuable compared to the USD!!

We will sell more goods abroad because the dollar is cheaper too.
