There was a time when the Rand got you three or four American dollars...

With all the anti-white activity in next-door Zimbabwe, and SA gov't's relative silence on that issue, the whites in SA probably see the writing on the wall and most are quietly moving their assets to more friendly and productive nations. SA is a lost cause; better to admit that and starting making exit plans instead of waiting until Mugabe exports his "economic policy" to next-door neighbor SA. If I were a South African white, I would be making plans to emigrate to Australia, the US, or some other friendly Western nation. The Jews knew what Hitler was planning, but thought they would be safe anyway. South African whites better learn that lesson of history. Failure to do so means you may end up being part of the next holocaust.....

You're right...the last exchange rate in my mind was 3.75 Rand to $1. Sad.
