Currency

A friend of mine asked me to find out what one British Pound (GBP) would yield in Zimbabwean Dollars(ZWD) . 

So here are the results.

As of today, 11 December 2008, 1 GBP is worth $245,164 ZWD. Now this figure must be put into perspective. The numbers itself portray a shocking and disturbing depiction of the situation in Zimbabwe. However, the situation in Zimbabwe is far worse. Reports have shown that inflation, now called hyperinflation is at 231 million percent as of July 2008.

Staggering and startling.
