A dollar just ain't worth $100,000 anymore

These periodic stories about the problems in Zimbabwe blow me away. 8,000 percent inflation and high double digit unemployment. It's sad. They introduced a $200,000 bill in July (worth about $6) and it is already being phased out for higher demoninations because the currency becomes more worthless with each passing day. If they want to derive some revenue they should consider putting up the pictures on the $500,000 ad $750,000 bills for sale. I'm sure there are people out there who would pay a good sum for the right to have their mug on a $750,000 bill (even if the thing will practically be worth three quarters and a penny by the middle of 2008).
