>Monthly Theme Day – (Small) Change(s) – #840

>

“If you don’t like change you’re going to like irrelevance even less”
General Eric Shinseki, Chief of Staff, U.S. Army as quoted by Tom Peters in ReImagine

I generally only need 4 currencies to get around – New Zealand dollars, Thai Baht, Pounds sterling and US dollars.

(Euros would be useful, but other members of the household tend to spend them before I can get my hands on them…)

Times were – when I was flying 100,000 miles a year – when I’d have left over MYR, AED, AUD, GRD, DKK, ITL, FFR, GBP, SEK, PTE, ESP and CHF rattling around the place.

Thank goodness for those plastic containers that Kodachrome (RIP 2009) came in.

Have a good 2010
