Yes, to 10 year record, but in the years from 2001 to 2007 the USD vs the PHP was in its prime, hanging in there from 50 to 58 for about 6 years. Here is a link to that chart and one can hope that the 58 mark can be reached once again (if you have USD which I don't ) http://fxtop.com/en/historical-exchange-rates-graph-zoom.php?C1=USD&C2=PHP&A=1&DD1=11&MM1=08&YYYY1=1967&DD2=10&MM2=08&YYYY2=2017&LARGE=1&LANG=en&CJ=0&MM1Y=0 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember thinking everything was dirt cheap compared to the U.S., so I guess everything is relative to your current circumstances. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intrepid Posted August 14, 2017 Posted August 14, 2017 Up an up it goes,...where it will stop no one knows. Currently 51.31 per dollar. Just remember, what ever goes up will come down! Sooner or later. Enjoy it while it lasts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of the rates usually drop a bit leading up to Christmas when the ofw's start send their Christmas money home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yesterday I was in town late and 'only' got 51.09 poor me lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
