Just trying to impress the H out of you. Its a financial lullaby. If Jim Rickards is right (I take him with a grain of salt) holding to many $ could be dangerous to your financial health. Not to worry if there is a shortage of or drop in the US dollar I am sure they can crank up a baht printer. The rest of the world is doing it.

Not to hijack this story, but  i recently saw a Bloomberg story that said to expect a U.S. Fed rate hike  in December.

"Expeets" accoding to Bloomberg are nearly 100 percent certain it will happen.

Question: if it does happen  what will that do to the Baht/Dollar exchange rate?
