Default The Falling US Dollar

The US Dollar has been falling in comparison with other currencies around the world. How this has effected your online earnings and business so far ? I hasn't affected for me till since it hasnt changed much against my local currancy but i wish i had started certern accounts in Euro.

Yes very much. The appreciation of the dollar hurts my bottom line. I may be earning more but due to currency conversions my net earnings have dropped.

For me, it's the gas prices that are doing the most damage than the dollar values at the moment. With gas high, it raises the price of everything, including shipping which is costing us in business.

It doesnt really affect me in real life though it does affect the stock market here.

The dollar is sinking mainly due to the economy there in the USA.

If it crashes it would surely cause a great deal of hardship for US dependent countries.

I don't know, I think I am not effected. No problem for me for now. Sometimes I am happy that my currency is getting better.

For me it affects my earnings deeply. You see I am from Canada, and our dollar is now more than the US dollar. And all my online earnings are in US dollars: so now I need to make more than a dollar for every dollar that I spend here, and that sucks.

I remember when I ordered some items of a Canadian website, 35CAD is what it cost. I paid 25USD. That was about a year ago. Has the dollar really changed that dramatically?

Change your currency to something else like euro or yen. Thats the best option at the moment.

The Aussie dollar is now worth something like 93c US cents. I'm feeling very patriotic at the moment (cheaper computer components).
