Re: American Change?
Cool! There were a few of those scattered around our new house when we moved in. They're pretty rare but I'll sell them to you if you want!Rama wrote:I just got a $2 note as my first change of 2015!
That has set me up for the year, incredibly lucky!

Nah, I don't really believe in luck. (or God) Not stupid or desperate enough.

As long as Clinton isn't the Pres. on them your OK. I have a $3. one with Hillary on it. It looks to be printed on toilet-paper grade paper which kind of goes along with Hillary.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

What makes you think that?phuketrichard wrote:The khmers dont like them
Most Khmer think that having a US $2 bill will bring them good luck financially. Alot of shops, businesses, bars/restaurants have them on display in a frame next to their other lucky charms. My missus always carries one in her purse, as do many other Khmers I know.

Re: American Change?
Yep, my Mrs kept one in her purse too - it got stolen.
Re: American Change?
I have bought a hundred 2.00 notes several times from my bank before travelling to Cambodia. I used to like to leave them as tips. Khmers have always considered them to be good luck. I have not done it recently............but they were always well received.
