Good grief, a kid has to have a 10 million dollar bill just to buy a penny gumball.
On the bright side the people there are getting really good at figuring large numbers in their head though...

The new note is equal to just one U.S. dollar Holy cow, last week I think $1 US Dollar = $28 Billion Zimbabwe Dollars! It's freefalling into a bottomless pit.

troubled central bank Troubled?
The "economy" in Zimbabwe has collapsed.
That's um, "troubled"?
Imagine if Mugabe were a white male, instead of the Saintly Revolutionary Who Overthrew the Evil Ian Smith.
The term for monetary collapse would be quite a bit harsher.
But not when you're a tribalist thug. Then you get a pass from all the filth who trumpeted your ascendancy 25 years ago as The Second Coming and the End of Injustice.
Far be it from them to admit their monstrous mistake.

One again, the brilliant revolutionary Robert Mugabe proves his genius, as he trains the kids of Zimbabwe to use scientific notation to buy gum-balls.
Comin' up next, the Avogadro Note: 6.022 * 10^23 Zimbabwe dollars = 1 US dime.

With inflation like that, money and savings have no value. Thus all become equally poor and miserable (except the ruling elite). Marxism in action.

They still contract a European company to produce the notes using quality paper and lithography. Might be interesting to squirrel one away just for future collector value. You don’t see notes issued in denominations of 10^11 everyday.

Coming soon to your Nation with its 9 TRILLION dollar Debt,under funded socialist programs, over taxed citizen workers, and if Obama becomes President more socialist programs, higher taxes, higher oil/gas costs and those new Federal Reserve notes in denominations of 1,000 and 10,000 and 100,000 so the citizens can pay their gas bills and food bills without carrying suitcases around......
