I have got 500 AUD and i am thinking to keep them and get them changed when its value rises up a little bit. I might be wrong but i recalled there was time when 1 AUD equals 0.9 USD. Do you think how long will it take for Australian money to goes up thinking of current economic?

sept 2014 it was .9 but that was the spot price.currency price will have been around .85

so if you wait six months (or six years) you will make about $20 aud extra less any fees

put $500 in amk bank and earn $25 less tax

A long, long time - fantasies of uranium sales making Australia rich aside... you'd be better off changing it now and sticking it in the bank and earning interest on it.

The latest exchange rate is .76 c $,,, Money exchanges will give you aprox .75 c,, which means you have USA $ 375.
Should you wait say , one year for the rate to go up to .90 , then you will have USA $ 450,,,, an increase of USA $75.

Are you a gambler ? cause the Australian government wants the dollar to go down, but it is doing the opposite.

The best advice I could give would be to change your A$500 when you are happy to do so.




And invest it in a bar.

In 2012/2013 it got up as high as 1.08.
Still, I definitely wouldn't be holding my breath 'til it gets that high, or anywhere near it again.
Much better things you could invest in then the Ozzie $, Samouth.
