K repreasants he number 1,000 in these cases..
In others M will represant 1,000.
People have become acustomed to the Greek K for money and the Roman M for time. (Atleast in English Speaking Countries and others that have adopted English as one of their major or source languages).

The "K" just means thousands of dollars mate, trust me I use it all the time when txting or emailing people, including real estate agents I am dealing with at the moment....they understand that I mean thousands of dollars so its all good.

"K" comes from the metric "kilo", which means "one thousand". For example, a kilometer (km) is 1,000 meters.
