Everything goes up, except your salary... :mad:
 
the day before they announced Zuma is going to be the next president, it was 6.68 to the $. Shocking (was 7.79 a short while ago)
 
R7,71 currently

Looks like I am going to take that contract job in Africa. It's the only way I am going to make ends meet ... =/

On the plus side, I get a salary increase almost daily! :)

Bite your tongue. I need it to go to R7 again for 3-4 months, so I can get some money out of this, err - for lack of a better word - , country.
