BOOTS ON THE GROUND
by RELIX Thu May 23, 2013 12:21 pm
Hello folks:
I just got a letter from a friend in Viet Nam and it is very interesting. I'll just paste it into this post so you can see what I'm talking about.
not sure I understand "$2.20 to the dong", and $68 per million is
really high. For the last six years anyway, it has hovered around
20,000 dong/dollar. I can get (changed $400 yesterday) 2.1 million for
$100 here all day long. That comes out to roughly $48 per million. If
the rate is going to drastically change, which it hasn't for years, I'm
not sure what would make it do so. The economy is still sagging, but
looking up. One thing I know for sure, $68/million is a straight
rip-off - 42% higher then the actual rate.
Chris

Men have been telling lies about their dongs for a very long time. Why would this be any different?

Man that stuff will kill you. No one really knows what they put in them. I think they have a shelf life of about 900 years.
Be sure to tell your friends about the teleconference tomorrow at 5:00 PST.

That's the plan. I have a "record" option so I am going to practice with the dashboard tomorrow before the call. Then you can dial in on your computer later on.
Thanx!
