A man in the United States popped out to his local petrol station to buy a pack of cigarettes - only to find his card charged $23,148,855,308,184,500.
That is $23 quadrillion (£14 quadrillion) - many times the US national debt.
"I thought somebody had bought Europe with my credit card," said Josh Muszynski, from New Hampshire.
That's the problem right there. It's Bank of America! I don't know anyone who hasn't had some weird ass fuck-up caused by that bank.Quote:
He says he then spent two hours on the phone with the Bank of America.
the part that really bums me out is that 23 quadrillion dollars is only worth 14 quadrillion euros. The US economy is fucked.
Could be worse. That's still more than 50% value, so we're not totally fucked. It's not like it's only worth 14 quadrillion pasos. Then we'd be really, truly fucked.
wonder what that is in candian dollars.............
Those are pounds, the euro's somewhere inbetween.Quote:
