Robbed is an understatement, a whole day of work will pay for barely to eat, and outside of their country, its "NOTHING" this being just robbed feeling only applies to people of privilidged places, If you want a clear example, our minimum wage is around 8-9 k liras, and thats barely enough for a family of 4, the worst part is.. with the inflation, that equals to maybe around, 400 usd, facking 400!! and becaus everything is so connected to this "free market US bullsh1t" its worth is equated to us and not to the condition of the currency origin, I would LOVE to just feel "robbed" instead of being facking made irrelevant in life

[@Kevin-wt8qr]

Americans don’t realize or appreciate that their money is metric. Ssshhh

[@sussurus]

It's actually not a bad system, though unintuitive to those attuned to the modern decimal world. 240 is simply an absolutely fantastic number. It's a highly composite number and a refactorable number. It has 20 divisors, compared to 100's 9, each of which can be easily divided further as all but a few of those divisors are equal numbers (compared to 100's 5 even divisors - good luck splitting costs evenly between 3 people). While some of the more odd coins (e.g. guineas - a relic of the silver standard and the fluctuating value of the equivalent in gold) may serve to make the system feel more confusing, the 240p pound is actually a very human system. Why would it have naturally come into existence if it wasn't?

Can't the Nigerian government just print more money? Sorry if I sound like an ignorant foreigner

[@jamesjohn1856]

@@k.umquat8604 this situation is quite twisted. I want to believe that the Central Bank is still printing new notes but we still have some corrupt elements within this commercial banking system that are hoarding and or directly giving millions to a selected few(rich, politicians, cooperate organizations e.t.c.). Which is why printing of more Naira hasn't really changed anything... Its just a waiting game right now. Sooner ore later, cash will begin to go round as it should when the hoarders have stashed enough of it.

[@kaxike7988]

​@@k.umquat8604I don't think it's a money printing problem, I would say it's corruption, if Nigeria printed little money then they would have deflation, but it's not like that, charging you money to get money from the bank doesn't make sense, they are taking advantage of people

Zimbabwe trying to not hyperinflated their currency for 2 seconds:

A bit like Venezuela the hyperinflation suspiciously and totally unrelatedly happened when the Zimbabwean government did something the west didn't like (expopriated the tiny white minority of the insane amount of land they owned) but it was definitely unrelated to that.

I've tried two of these , the Kuwaiti dinar is not very confusing to the Saudi people as it is around 10 SAR ( 11.5 to be exact ) two other currencies are the same in the gulf Bahraini dinar around 10 SAR and the Omani riyal also 10 SAR. So we are basically used to it. Irani riyal is another story , in the streets everyone will tell you the price using Toman , royal is only on paper.

[@nektarios5291]

​@@GeneralNickles You can equally say the opposite, why is no negotiation possible on the price. Its cultural. Also in reality most prices are actually negotiable anyway unless they're products being sold by giant corporations or basic foodstuffs. If you go to independent shops to buy a tv or something like that you can usually get some sort of negotiation going especially if you buy multiple items. Same goes with cars, price is always negotiable.

[@nektarios5291]

​@@neophyte1994 It's actually not at all when you're aware of it and how the system works, which is how it is for 99.9999% of people who interact with it, and let's face it why would a country change its entire culture because tourists find it annoying.

I was reading about the inflation in Germany after WW1. They use another 100 group called "Milliarde" which is Billion in English. However they use Billion for the English Trillion. Because of this, many people understate the amount of inflation in Germany from the Armistice until the monetary system collapsed in 1923. It was difficult for me to understand the huge inflation that one author wrote about because he used the German system. If I remember right, at the start of WW1, 3 gold marks were worth one US dollar. Just before the collapse in 1923, 4,120,526,600,000 marks was worth one US dollar.

[@Atcze]

Cambodia was weird. They prefer to use the USD but have their Cambodian Riel at the same time. However, the banks take USD notes below 10$ out of circulation. If you pay in USD and the change is below 10$, you receive Riel. If it is above 10$, you receive a mix of Riel and USD.

[@urldroidsuperbot2139]

A currency is never strong or weak. It is overvalued and undervalued based on prices and exchange rate and wages. A currency unit absolutely has no bearing with it because it is the relationship between prices and exchange rate that matters. Kuwaiti Dinar is actually similarly priced to other neighbouring Arabian Gulf countries, except that they use a currency unit that is equal to 1000 subunits while others use 100 subunits. Same for Bahrain and Oman.

You do not lose money when you exchange US$ for Kuwaiti Dinar. The exchange rate meant that 30 Kuwati Dinar can buy the equivalent value of US$100 in Kuwait. Based on the above logic of losing money, do you become super rich when you exchange US$ for the Zimbabwe Dollar?
