Andreah Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 I'm going to start using "VV" for quarters, since V is five, and 5 x 5 is 25. Hundreds could be XX ! I.e., a mugging outside Wentworths in KR could start out with "Hand over all your double-X's!" 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two M's are now a Million, not two thousands. We're multiplying them together. XL is now 50 x 10 or 500, XLVII is 10 x 50 x 5 x 1 x 1, or 2500, and so on. It's like New Math, except it's for money. We can call it the New Roman Monetization. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
