An American Dollar in Paris: Final Thoughts

Two things have come out of the weak dollar. First, I am really getting to know you guys, and that is why I wanted to launch this blog in the first place. I read every post, the good and the bad, and I love it. The deals you find, the way you handle your money, and your ideas about energy. Wow, you are vocal about ANWR!

Also, I have gotten a great response both internally and externally to my "Save the Dollar" campaign. Yes, the weak dollar, which slipped yet again today, is trying to come back. Somewhere in the currency universe, my voice is being heard.

Why worry about the dollar? Well, I believe in the American economy, and I think the dollar is a great symbol of what a powerful and innovative nation we are. We're having a tough time right now, our currency reflects that, but we, and the dollar, are resilient. We'll be back, just like this market will be back. Patience is good, belief is better.

Also, I wanted to give you my final thoughts on my time in Paris. First, if you watched the show today, you saw the Flip Cam video I shot. The best part of Paris was spending time with my sister. Here are some personal pics I thought I would share. Elizabeth is such an amazing younger sister, she really has it together! Paris was first and foremost a "sisters" trip, but she also learned a lot about our currency. We are geeks huh?
