US dollar climbing

Last month, when I purchased AU:Blue, 30 AUD was 25 USD. This morning, when I looked at AU:Green, 30AUD was about 23 USD. Don't know how long this trend will continue, but in the short term I predict that add-ons are going to become slightly cheaper for US buyers (and of course US products will become slightly more expensive in other currencies).
 
I can only hope and pray that it will continue. Switzerland pro X will be the first thing I buy!!
 
Our dollar needs to climb...I'm not going even going to say how many thousands I have lost over the last two weeks..If it continues,this ol boy might have to go back to work.....:banghead: :censored:


Any job offers? :d

I wish I had thae option or going back to work:(
So far this year my retirement accounts have lost over $45,000.
I lost $7,000 yesterday alone :(

Then there was the $1.57 to 1 Euro that cost me a bundle during
my 7-week stint in Europe this past summer.

Bring back 2002 when the market was reasonably healthy and the
dollar and euro were about par....

I feel for ya Gypsy Baron...These times are getting tough..I keep telling my wife lets sell the houses and all we have and ship the Harley and ourselves to Sweden...Thats what I want to do...Just arrive with a suitcase full of money as depicted in the movies and live worry free the rest of my life....:d
 
The upward trend of the US dollar is a nice thing to see, definitely.

But if indications come true, I've a feeling that direction will go the opposite direction, following this November's election.

I won't say anything more about this, but am sure you know what my poliitcal affliliation is.

The US is getting ready, I fear, to repeat the depression of 1929-33. But this one will be worse. Folks back then were much more self-suficient. People nowadays will riot and go into mass panic. I would not want to live in or near a large city, for example. My stepson lives in the Atlanta area. I've already told him to plan on leaving town when the s... hits the fan. It will be ugly.

I feel your pain harleyman. I had planned to retire next year but I'm going to wait for the market to go back up. I get paid a decent wage and I get 6 weeks vacation so I'm not going to rush into it
 
Hope the Euro will gain again on the Dollar.

The low US Dollar gave us Dutch some kind of a benefit buying from American sites and vendors. The prices in Holland are rediciously high, even compared to our neighbours (software, movies, CD's, electronics, cloth etc, etc.).
