True. What would buy a cow today, will only buy you a burger tomorrow.

Maybe I should ask for an hourly rate instead...pegged to inflation?

Which version of the Bolivar are you wanting your ONE MEEELYON in? The current Bolivar where 1 million is something like twenty thousand pounds a week, or the old Bolivar which collapsed a little while back where 1 million wouldn't even get you a Freddo these days!

Well, I’m obviously worth the new one (VES), but my contract will probably be tied to the old one (VEF).

if anyone needs to know the ins and outs of the Venezuelan currency then @ActuallyDenz is the dude

plot twist, on the game wheel winner wins 10,000000000 VEF which is probably worth 1.75
