Would all readers please note that as from February this year (2009) that all references to “dollars” in this blog refer to the United States currency of the same name. Zimbabwe dollars no longer exist. Officially they have been withdrawn due to “speculation pressure” which begs the question of how they will ever be re-introduced without the same thing happening all over again.
February has been chosen as the “cutoff” date as that is when the revenue authority is opening its books on the real money.
I received my USA passport today. If the USA dollar is legal tender, then does this passport entitle me to Zim residence even tho the Zim govt bid me adios 18 years ago? :}
Nope, sorry for that, but you can come and spend your dollars here anytime!
