To have 100 Billion Dollars and not be able to buy a loaf of bread... (yes, I said one hundred BILLION). In fact, all you would be able to buy is 4 oranges... or maybe a one pound bag of sugar. In Zimbabwe 100 billion dollars is the equivalent to one US Dollar and the paper money they have there isn't really cash at all, but is what is known as a bearers cheque which expires in the end of December.
And we think our inflation rate is bad, here is a story on Zimbabwe and their 2.2 million percent inflation rate.
