<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 241596, member: 39&quot;]Nah, the exchange rate is not that bad. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>One million (US) is eine Million (DE). But one thousand millions is a &quot;Milliarde&quot; in German while it is a &quot;billion &quot;in English. And the German &quot;Billion&quot;, as on the depicted piece, is an English &quot;trillion&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>(Yes, I know that sometimes - UK? - an English &quot;billion&quot; is the same as a German &quot;Billion&quot;. But that is something I don&#039;t have to deal with, hehe.)</p><p><br /></p><p>Side note: Where you use a comma to separate the thousands, we use a point - and where you use a point (separating dollars and cents for example), we use a comma. But since in most cases - at least when it comes to money - there are only two digits after the decimal point/comma, that is not terribly confusing ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
