The United States has dollar bills like one dollar and stuff and for coins they have like a quarter, nickel, dimes, and pennys.

Well I think it's cool that in Hong Kong, they have coins for dollar bills and for five dollars. It's in a coin shape too. :D

What places have you been where money forms changes of the way it is in the US?

In Hong Kong they have coins for five bucks coz five bucks in HK is like 50 cents in US.

I live in Malaysia and we have 1 dollar coins. Indonesia has coins in larger amounts coz their currency is so small.

yep...that's true. Usually I just move the decimal place over three times to the left and it gives me the approximate value.

gosh i hate us. last summer, i went to visit ... my dad was thirsty and he wanted to buy a water bottle that was one dollar. he accidently took out a one hundred dollar bill because it's so hard to tell the stinkin difference. and the stupid person that sold it wouldn't give him back his money. it was so pissing. the cashier lady even HID the money in her pocket. my dad was angry, but he didn't know how to get it back so we were pissed off.
