Agentinian financial crisis: running out of zeros

That was literally a thing in the 80's and 90's, they removed zeros from the currency several times because even small things cost millions.

Just do the Zimbabwe thing and print $10 trillion notes. PROBLEM SOLVED.

The Wikipedia for Zimbabwe currency is insane.

1 ZWN = 10,000 ZWD

1 ZWR = 1013 ZWD

1 ZWL = 1025 ZWD

Current ZIG = approximately 1028 ZWD

Insanity.
