The world of high finance.

Someone pointed out today that the Australian dollar is currently plummeting. When I arrived it was worth about 7.5 Patacas, sometimes 8 on a good day. Today, it is worth 5.3.

For me, this is excellent, because every Pataca I send home today buys me more money in the longterm, assuming the Australian dollar bounces back before I go home. I wish I hadn't paid off all my debt in the early days. Heck, I wish I had a mortgage.

On the less bright side, fizit is kinda screwed for spending money.

I wish I had a mortgage, and if the world goes any more in this direction, I'll probably get one!

Believe me, you dont wish you had a mortgage right now.

My payments have gone up over 500 dollars a month this year alone due to the interest rates rising.
Cutting 1 percent off them isnt going to bring me down to the level it was in January.
