Fifty billion and rising

Lasst week I reported that the cover price of the Sunday Independent newspaper was $30 billion in Zimbabwe.

This week it is $50 billion (R11.50 in South Africa).

That's $50 000 000 000 000,00

The mind boggles.

Thirty billion dollars

Bought a Sunday newspaper today, The Sunday Independent. It had the price on it.

SA R11,50 (Inc VAT)
Zimbabwe $30 Billion.

That's right - $30 000 000 000 000,00

Who needs sanctions?

They couldn't do anything to the Zimbabwe economy that Mugabe hasn't already done.

There was a time when the Zim dollar was worth more than a Rand.
