I bought 5 100,000,000,000,000 Zim dollar notes on eBay a few years ago. A half quadrillion! Gave one to my cousin and one to a friend. Figured the three of us would never be poor.

On a more serious note, this reprieve of the 100 Bolivar note comes a little late for the people who burned them or destroyed them after missing the deadline for exchanging them for even more worthless 50s. I wonder, do they have lamp posts in Venezuela?

“do they have lamp posts in Venezuela?”

Probably sold for scrap to buy food.
