I had a buddy talk me into buying some foreign currency because of this same situation. I dropped about $100 U.S. Dollars. I have $250,000 dollars of another currency in my night stand. I did it a few years ago, like 7. At first I was excited. But now I have some very expensive Monopoly money. But this exchange rate is just plain silly. Imagine the jeep you could build with the return on that.
