I was interested in your main question, and was just going to watch for answers, but after reading your details I realize it was probably just a hook to get me to read your rant. You start off quite correct, but you start to lose it when you talk about why the dollar is becoming worthless. If whether oil was priced in a currency was the only thing that determined its value then Yen, Pesos, Pounds and so many other things should also be worthless. Why aren't they? They aren't because they have other goods behind them. These are the ordinary goods produced in those countries which people in other countries trade for. So why isn't the dollar stable without oil like Pounds and Yen and Deutchmarks are? Because to a much greater degree than those other currencies the US Dollar is being inflated, that is, many more of them are being produced, both on the printing presses and through the banking system. This embezzlement of the world through the banking system has been going on for a long time, but has been masked by the dollar's tie to oil. You are also factually incorrect when you state that we had a budget surplus before the invasion of Iraq (which I agree was illegal.) What a fantastic world you must live in to be able to believe that trillions of dollars of surplus money can just vanish like dew after a desert sunrise! The fact is, that surplus was never real. It was a "projected" surplus, meaning that it was only on paper, and was only going to occur if future politicians stuck to an unrealistic plan, and at that, it still ignored the social security liability. Good luck banking in Euros.

All you have to do to work it out was go onto xe universal currency converter website (xe.com).
American money is worth less than euros.
1 euro =1.296US dollars (that is if you give $1.29 at the moment you will get a single euro if you exchange US dollars for euros).
so $500US=385.6 Euros at the moment.
I hope I have helped you. Have a fabulous time in Europe in June! I'm sure you'll have a great time.

The Euro is stronger than the American Dollar. $500 US is roughly 386 Euro, but it changes daily.

find you a converter site for exchange rates and place it on My Favorites and closer to your trip click on that and see about what you'll have then. It will change so much probably between now and June its unreal. I always do that before my trip. Plus you will have a fee when you exchange it at the bank....oh and you'll need your ID with you and passport with you for exchanging it at a bank.
You can find some nice gifts though to bring back....worry beads, history books with pictures, tee shirts, plates, etc..not expensive you'll be ok....

1 USD = 0.771220 EUR
500.00 USD=385.610 EUR
As you can see Euro has a stronger value than the american dollar.
