They got fucking raped. That would suck.
The Worst Episode of Hyperinflation in History: Yugoslavia 1993-94. Between October 1, 1993 and January 24, 1995 prices increased by 5 quadrillion percent. That’s a 5 with 15 zeroes after it.
Interesting shit TBH.

The telephone bills for the government operated phone system were collected by the postmen. People postponed paying these bills as much as possible and inflation reduced their real value to next to nothing. One postman found that after trying to collect on 780 phone bills he got nothing so the next day he stayed home and paid all of the phone bills himself for the equivalent of a few American pennies.

The entire country probably could have been purchases for around a million dollars.
1 million? What are you stupid?
Considering that we have the strongest currency here in the US and the fact that Yugoslavia has never been worth even close to 5 quadrillion in the firstplace, I believe that is an overestimation.
