Maybe wait 1 more year.
I’m going to Germany in September, but I won’t be buying a car.http://www.wsj.com/articles/euros-tumble-brings-it-closer-to-parity-with-u-s-dollar-1426018815
Deutsche Bank revised its euro forecast on Tuesday, taking the view that lower rates will force investors out of the euro and into foreign markets. They now expect the euro to be worth $1.00 by the end of the year, from a previous forecast of $1.05. From there, the euro will keep sliding to $0.85 by 2017, said Alan Ruskin, head of G-10 foreign-exchange strategy at Deutsche Bank in New York.March 11, 2015 at 10:52 AM #783521spdrunParticipantForecasts are almost always wrong.
March 11, 2015 at 12:00 PM #783522scaredyclassicParticipantI just like japan.
But realistically it’s too far. I don’t like long plane trips
March 11, 2015 at 12:32 PM #783523FlyerInHiGuestI suppose one positive is that houses and education in America will be more expensive for foreigners. That will help “keep America for Americans.”
Imported goods such as TV and electronics will be more affordable for us. We can all upgrade to 80 inch TVs this Thanksgiving!!

Don’t know about that, SD is in the Global RE bargain bin compared to most large cities in the world (for what you get for your buck).
I would like to get a small truck on sale if I can get one under say 11 or 12 grand, else I may buy used.
March 11, 2015 at 1:47 PM #783526spdrunParticipantSD isn’t a particularly large city on a world scale, though, especially when viewing the heavily urbanized part 🙂
March 11, 2015 at 2:34 PM #783528poorgradstudentParticipantFrom what I’ve read, although Europe is relatively cheaper once you get there these days, airfare prices are actually quite high.
March 11, 2015 at 2:48 PM #783530anParticipantI’m definitely will be planning a trip to Europe due to the strong $. Hopefully prediction is correct and the $ continue to strengthen. It make my Euro trip that much more affordable.
