Pictoral of Zimbabwe Hyperinflation


Zimbabwe has been experiencing unbelievable inflation for some time, but recently it has been calculated at 231 million percent. I really can't even wrap my mind around that, so here are some pictures that show day-to-day financial transactions. Quite amazing.

Wow that is insane! The restaurant check for $1.2 billion is my favorite.
I can't help but wonder what came first, the hyperinflation or the printing of all of those new bills?
