In Malaysia, perhaps I can buy 10 unit of big bungalow around KL city that come with swimming pool costs $7 millions and 10 unit of Ferrari Enzo costs $3 millions. The inflation rate in Malaysia is about 7-10% this year. Fair enough due to the serious hike of the fuel price, but I think Malaysians always can fight it better.
Salary is getting virtually smaller and smaller nowadays, thanks to inflation.
For normal residents like us, owning $10 billions are just a dream, until our grand's grandson can benefit from the amount.
It is 360 degrees different when you are living in Zimbabwe. I was quite upset when I heard bread costs $10 millions in Zimbabwe. Yes, $19 millions just for a bread, due to skyrocket inflation of happening in this country. Their inflation rate is about 2,200,000% up to now, which is really frightening. Sorry to tell you that Zimbabwe was once the wealthiest country in Africa.
A Zimbabwean posted this pic in his blog describing the life in Zimbabwe.
Compare to Zimbabwe residents, we are luckier and wealthier.
Do pray for them and the country.
