the wold















These are pictures of an actual 100trillion dollar bill I bought off ebay. I thought its was cool at first, but then I read into Zimbabwe to find out why they have such highly marked bills. It sucks. Their inflation rate is so high that their money is in the billions and trillions.(basicly the moment this bill was issued it began losing value) This bill is probaly worth nothing now, I bought it for 2.00.
It's interesting, living in america. We dont really feel the situation/affect of the world around us. We have world news, but its like ... "those things are just stories to pass the time." ..well maybe it's just me.... anyway I lost my train of thought, so im gonna go to sleep now.
good night.

  1. that is sad.
    it's true that America is like a comfort zone, but a lot of people are very connected and trying to help all the time. i'm always wishing i could help in ways more substantial and influential besides signing petitions and donating.
    it is really sad how we as individuals can do so little for what desperately needs to be changed.. so many things, all over the world, all the time.
    governments are so much more effective, yet most of them are not able to bring out their best potential.
