Nozomi Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 I use the euro, they just use it in the Europian country's. So I live in Belgium, and if we go to Germany or France and stuff, we don't have to get their kinda money. You can just use the Euro. But it's hard to learn those money kinds, it's kinda like a dollar, but we, here in Belgium never used it. But i was mad in the beginning of that. But it really comes out handy. I've been in Holland now, and we didn't have to get their kinda money, and that's the same for the 29th June when we go to Germany. But the euro isn't the end of the world. ^-^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 It's absolutely not feasible for the entire world to use one currency on an economic level. The Federal reserve in the US alone controls recessions and the like by adjusting the supply of money within its borders. If only one currency was used in the entire world, the Fed couldn't do this anymore because the supply of money would extend to every country - if one country affected the supply somehow it would affect, positively or negatively, every other country that uses the same currency. The Euro runs into this problem as well. What if Spain is going through a recession and Germany is booming. What will the central bank do? Will they tighten the money supply or expand it? The Euro however does have some advantages in that it increases mobiity among the european nations (for jobs) and it helps countries that suck at managing economic stuff.

Sui Generis Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 I dun really think its all that near, I mean come on read the bible...the end is always near! The only thing that would make me even think about that is in the bible (used to be a Christian) the Isrealites will finally be at peace with its enemy and Palenstine has always been an enemy so yeah who knows. I mean if it was really gonna end would I care that much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkM Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 Well no offence but this post is pointless. This is because It has been proven scientifically that the earth will end when the sun dies out! Plain and simple! If all the units of money merge. Woppie good for the money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Char! Posted May 13, 2002 Share Posted May 13, 2002 Yeah, but we're simply speculating whether it'll end any sooner based on the partial fulfillments of a prophecy of the end times, it being the combining of the world's monetary units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
