derek: you won't believe what just happened.
kelly: what?
derek: i went down to change some money, right?
kelly: yes. we need some. how much did you change?
derek: i wanted to change around 5000 dollars. and you know the exchange rate.
kelly: yes, it's about 35 pesos for every taiwan dollar, right?
derek: not today.
kelly: what do you mean?
derek: i went into the bank with my money, and i looked at the exchange board.
at first i couldn't believe it. i thought i was reading the board wrong or something.
kelly: why?
derek: because the board said 60 pesos for every taiwan dollar.
kelly: sixty? that's too much. how can that be?
derek: i thought it was wrong too. it didn't make sense.
kelly: just two days ago it was 35. how can it be 60?
derek: so, i went up to the teller and started to exchange the money. and it's true.
they really gave me sixty pesos for the dollar.
kelly: that's amazing! really? how could it change so much in two days?
derek: i tried to ask the bank teller why it changed,
but she didn't speak english well enough.
so i decided to go to the magazine shop. the one around the corner.
and i bought an american newspaper.
kelly: what happened?
derek: it seems that yesterday the mexican government declared
it wouldn't pay back the loans it got from the world bank.
the government declared a default on the loans.
kelly: that's serious.
derek: i know. the economy here is having serious problems.
but because the government declared a default, the currency value went way down.
kelly: so now mexican pesos are worth about half as much.
derek: yes, it's an amazing drop.
kelly: wow. i feel sorry for the mexicans. but it's good for us.
derek: yes, it's very good. we suddenly have twice as much money to spend here.
our hotel is now half as expensive as when we got here! isn't that strange?
kelly: yes, and you know what?
derek: what?
kelly: i don't really like this hotel that much.
so tonight, now that we are so rich,
tonight why don't we stay in the most expensive hotel in town?
derek: why not? we should do it. because now we can afford it.
