Those weird Euros. MM for Million, M for Thousand? What happened to their metric system with just M and K!? Also, mixing up decimal places with comas and putting them in the wrong places! We fought a war to escape that stuff! Posting it should be a bannable offense! /s
On point, 480K deaths is ridiculous hyperbole.
K has been seriously maligned. Formerly enjoying the heights of the financial world, reduced to blue-collar status of measuring distance and weight. Very sad.

MOSCOW, March 10 (Reuters) - A sharp drop in oil prices and the rouble’s fall to a four-year low pose no immediate risks to the Russian budget, but they may hurt already tepid investment activity and thwart President Vladimir Putin’s plans to raise living standards in Russia.
Russian assets have taken a hammering since Friday when a deal on cutting global oil output unexpectedly fell apart, sending oil prices, the mainstay of Russia’s economy, into a tailspin.
