OMG - you call yourself an Accountant????

1 AUD buys 75 US cents today. Not the other way round (although we all wish).

Taka, when the aussie dollar was first floated it was worth more than the US$

Showing my age

I ain't old enough for that. I was definitely not around when Australia using Pounds. I have the coin here made in the 1973

Correction: I have a 50c made in 1969

Hawke and Keating floated it in 1983. Since then it's been between 47 and 96 US cents. I remember the 47 cent period well....the 96c I don't remember at all. I must have slept through it!!

Whose car is/was this? QLD reg, car in Perth, being sold on ebay (to registered buyers only) for $7500 buy-it-now. Photo was taken in a QLD dealers lot, I'd say.

Scam, scam, scam.
