I fully agree with you
But why did he wrote then "dollar" in the title, when he meant money ?

Didn't he realised that "the best exchange rate for the dollar" is an
emotionally charged statement in this context ?
In a number of countries, people swinging with USD's are regarded as banal,
lacking a min. level of culture.
Never noticed that ?

Do you select a destination country because of a .0005 % better USD
exchange rate ?
