[lbo-talk] Advice please!

[Gerhardt Goeken]

I have recently returned from holiday in Ireland. To
save up for this holiday I began purchasing Euros
periodically over a year ago.  When I started $.91
bought 1 Eu. Now the exchange rate is $1.17 to 1 Eu.

I have it in my mind that opening a savings account in
Euros and depositing money into it may be a wise
precaution as a reserve safety net.

I also have it my mind that divesting from the US
dollar will be a stronger protest against the policies
of the Bush administration than any attendance
anti-war rallies or other progressive mass
demonstrations.

I would like to know what others here think before I
start recommending divestment as a means of resisting
Bush.

Thanks!
