With a debit card!

Debit card and coins usually. I have 4 €-bills right now, not much to count there.

upvote just for the method at 0:54. wtf ?! edit: and yea, its right about the one i use (uk)

Nice vid.

Really?? Weird. What's with the comedy tag?

Where I am now, Uzbekistan, 1 US dollar = 1219 sum, all the prices are in the hundreds of thousands and the largest denomination is 1000 sum. Average bill for a good lunch is around 45,000 sum.

I walk with huge bundles of cash and every transaction entails several minutes counting cash, I have taken to making bundles of 5000, 10000 and 20000 just to make it easier for myself.

The banking system is underdeveloped so there is no ATMs or debit cards. I feel sorry for the folks buying cars, locally they cost around 14 million, which is most usually brought in huge duffel bags, like they are doing a drug transaction.

Its all an elaborate way of showing that there is less inflation then there actually is. But wow, the waitresses impress the shit out of me, some of them are like automatic cash counters in the sheer speed they count the cash.

Am I a bad person for half-expecting the African money counting to be a
pair of empty hands?

and do you believe this video

it doesn't matter how you count it if the bills are fake

shappard, yes.... yes you are :-)

Farhad, do you really pay $37 for a lunch in Uzbekistan? I would have thought it would be cheaper there.

Yes, there are many western stlye establishments here, these range from full on German style beer joints to pseduo-Chinese joints, lavishly decorated and serviced. Those are the prices I mention however some places go as high as 100 to 200 dollars per sitting, then we are talking.

However if you are backpacking it or a tourist you can eat for as low as 10 to 20 dollars. The prices are high here though, relatively, because of restrictive trade and rising food prices the world over. The Economist recently stated that world food prices rose a staggering 77% in the last year.

They forgot the maniacal laughter in the US counting method.

FWIW, the Korean one at the beginning wasn't right. This is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0u_WQyfsUa4.

The indian way is so goofy...

very cool!

Some of those clearly are more trouble than their worth. I bet some of those are used so not to show off your cash while counting it. I do count it the American way. I figured it just taught myself how but maybe I watched my parents when I was little or something...

I liked the one where they just throw it on the table somewhere as they count.

wtf is this "cash" you speak of?

I'm from Russia and I've never seen the alleged Russian counting method
