Currency Confusion
109 words eaten alive on November 23, 2007 - Filed Under Amused, Finances -
On my usual visit today to the XE.com currency exchange site I noticed something new, a ? in a circle beside the US value compared to Canada. What’s that, I wondered, so I put the mouse over it to see the tooltop popup. Apparently a lot of people have trouble understanding (or even believing) that the Canadian Dollar is currently worth more than the USD. The CAD has been dropping lately though and soon things could be back to ‘normal’, but it’s pretty funny that they felt the need to put in that little note to help people understand that the numbers ARE in fact correct.
