Exchanging money isn't as easy as you think it is.

I had a bunch of Canadian dollars I needed to exchange, so I went to the currency exchange window at the local bank.

It was a short line; just one guy in front of me. He was an Asian guy who was trying to exchange yen for dollars and he was a little agitated.

He asked the teller, "Why it change? Yesterday I get two hunat dolla fo yen - today I get hunat eighty! Why it change?"

The teller says, "Fluctuations."

The Asian guy says, "Fluc you white guys, too!"
