A 250,000,000 Dollar Bill

I was browsing Wikipedia today and noticed an article Zimbabwean dollar. Then there’s an image of a $250,000,000 Zimbabwe bearer cheque.

Right, that’s $250 million dollars!

With monthly inflation rate at 1,063,572.6% in May, no wonder they need a huge bill.

    Sun,

    I guess everyone is a millionaire (perhaps even billion- or trillionaire) in Zimbabwe. Unfortunately, a loaf of bread costs 50 billion dollars :-(
