zimbabwe zeros
Zimbabwe has solved its hyper-inflation
According to Gideon Gono (governor of the country's central bank [ROTFL!]), since the brand-new bill in the denomination of $1,000,000,000 will not buy even a loaf of bread, the solution is simple: remove some zeros. "This time . . . those zeros . . . are going for good." (Yesterday, a laptop computer was advertised for Z$1.2 quadrillion.) Washington Post
