I Miss U all my Blog

I didn't know this until right now but the EURO turned 10 today! 

"Europe's single currency has come of age early. The euro turns ten on Jan. 1, a milestone for one of the most powerful symbols of European identity. It has already endured a rite of passage over the past few months, as the global financial crisis battered European markets yet failed to fluster the euro. And, like any debutante, it has its suitors: a string of countries lining up to dump their national currencies and join the euro zone."

Also making news, Slovakia is now using the euro as their sole currency!!
Is the Euro the New Dollar?
