"That is 88.5888 trillion Vietnamese [Dung] but 5.54 billion dollars."

As in, there are 100 Dungs in one U.S.A. penny. If you have $100 in Communist Vietnam, you are a millionaire.

Sorry, I hit the wrong key- that’s Dong. and it is 159.5 to the penny at the moment. What bothers me is that that number is getting smaller as the dollar depreciates. The next time I go back it’s going to cost more.

Would that be a Mill-dung-aire?
