So much Dong.

I find it interesting that members here are offering to pay to get another guys dong in their hands ;)


Genuine question, because I am curious:

Do people in Vietnam have terms for larger amounts of their currency? Since 1 dong is worth so little, people must be used to dealing with very large numbers in their currency. Like a kilodong or a megadong, but presumably not using Greek prefices. Or are people just used to dealing with millions of units of currency and think nothing of it?

Years back in Romania there was 41,000 Lei to the pound. The smallest note I remember seeing was 1,000 Lei. Carrying money around was rea-lei a pain.
