Answer 1

$1 -  Ã‚£0.52

$1 - 52p

London is more expensive than New York City

I dollars the average monthly rent for a two bedroom flat:

New York City $2,000

London $3,885

Average Petrol/ Gas per gallon:

USA $4

UK $10

Everything in the UK cost around double the amount it would cost in the US but the wage of a UK is around double the amount it would be for the similar job in the US meaning the shopping works out evn both countries but if someone from UK saves their wages and goes shopping in the US lol its an all out half price sell which many of my friends do they got to NYC and buy soo much

Minimum wage in the UK is $11.15 an hour this is the lowest amount of pay anyone can get in the UK for their job.

same as:

$446 a week

$23,192 a year

Me im getting $38,918 / £20,000 a year as a beginner plumber im only 17 live at home so I get to keep all the money lol. Thats is average wage like middle type jobs good jobs you get like more than double.

I should be getting $67,981 a year in 5 years time

Answer 2

US$ 1 = £0.51

I agree with Kevin.It would be hard for you now.

Plus don´t you ever think that living in Europe is cheap...the contrary...we pay a lot of taxes,and prices aren´t cheap at all.I´m writing to you from Spain,and since the Euro came,everything is double price.The flats to rent are from 800 Euros up (which I find horrible compared to a normal Spanish citizen salary (1500 Euros,and I know a lot of people don´t reach this amount).A normal new flat (about 80-90 square meters,which isn´t big) to buy in Barcelona province is between 400.000 to 550.000 Euros...life is not easy unless you have´n´t got children,both you and your partner work and have a nice income.I cannot talk from the British point of view but I imagine life isn´t easy for them either.Plus pensions are cr@p.

Think it twice before coming over.I don´t know how hard life is in USA but I know for sure that owning a house in USA isn´t as hard as owning one in Europe.

One US dollar = about £0.50 (50 pence) at the moment

1 US Dollar,  approx  50pence  in UK money

Answer 8

Dollar is worthless

Unless you find a job in these places you can expect to run out of cash very fast.

It would be a better idea to go to Ecuador or someplace. Their currency is pegged to the dollar, and living expenses are much cheaper.  

Answer 9

$10 is roughly equal to £5 in the UK.  

1 U.S. dollar = 0.513901023 British pounds to be exact.
