1.5- The Promised Land of Currency Exchange
October 16, 2008

ALRIGHT!!
Well, we’ve done it! On October 6th I wrote about the exchange rate and how life in Istanbul would rock if the rate hit (a then unimaginable) 1.5 Lira to the Dollar. Today that exact occurrence has happened- we’re at 1.53 and climbing, three cheers…
cheers? Its screwing the Americans exports. And that also means 50% rise in tuition cost for Turkish students studying in the U.S., just in 2 months. This messes up many goals of those people as well!
