Did you say 1 pound or $1.57 or php 71.85

Maybe if you invest another pound in dollars and wait a few months you might double and then you will have you pound back! :hystery:

I laughed when I saw this because its an old math puzzle that comes in many guises. My dear and departed old friend from MN laid it on me twenty years ago and I enjoyed solving it. Based on confusing people with negative and positive number intermixing, it seems most appropriate for this culture, as well as many others like my own, where superficial, but not full legal, ownership is seen as wealth..... like in... 'I own a P1.2 M car' (but owe the bank P1.5M). Ha-ha.
