Should I buy American dollars?
I'm leaving from Canada soon on a RTW trip. With the Canadian dollar
being so strong should I buy as much as I can and use that money on the road? I am thinking that the USD will have more buying power than the CDN and with a year or so the CDN$ may not be as high. Thoughts? |

Should I buy American dollars?
I know people who did that last year, expecting to hold a stronger currency.
However, the USD continued falling against other currencies, and they told me later that they would have had 30% more money had they held onto their own currency and converted it when they needed. It's a gamble...you have to decide what risks you are willing to take. "motoyen" wrote in message om... I'm leaving from Canada soon on a RTW trip.

My parents are RVing in the states and they said that they heard the US was
going to raise interest rates and that should drive the US up. Scott "Edwardseco" wrote in message ...

Have you read the news about the falling US dollar? Speculation is not investment. edwardseco |
