I know that this story has been floating around for some time now, but it is still drawing attention. Jay-Z is known for flossin' whenever the cameras are on him. In his videos, exotic cars, hoards of women, diamonds, gold label champagne, basically anything that expresses ridiculous wealth are all synonymous with Mr. Carter. So when shooting "Blue Magic" off of the American Gangsta album, Jay-Z is seen flashing money... nothing out of the ordinary for him right. On closer examination you'll notice that they are wads of euro 500 notes he's flashing.
Is this the new sign of wealth? Oh sure Jay-Z can afford to convert large sums of his money into foreign currency to capitalize on the strong value, but what about the rest of us? We work hard for our money too, but what could we do? I know I don't have a high priced investment banker who oversees my finances. It's a sad day for our country when Americans don't even want to use the dollar because of it's declining value. Just some food for thought.
