However, the girls that I know here that are having a hard time aren't thinking about going to an agency. They're thinking about two things: making more money themselves, and finding a local guy that makes money.

But, upon checking xe.com they are giving a rate of 11.21 UAH to the EUR which is absurd, in 'normal days it was 6 (ish) UAH to the EUR! Maxirat Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 12/19/2008 8:09:38 PM   Martin Interesting !!! Apparently you cant exchange UAH for Euro in Kiev for a little while now. My info shows 11.599UAH - EUR Yesterday the powers to be, seemed to have pegged the US back to 8.5. It was trading at 10-1 They are trying to ease panic dumping of the UAH VNVnation Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 12/20/2008 12:30:00 AM   Yesterday evening the rate was 10UAH/$1; today the rate is 7UAH/$1. Go figure. Maxirat Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 12/20/2008 3:42:06 AM   Yushchenko told Central bank to secure "total control" over the banks purchases of dollars and issued a deadline for it to stabilize the currency market. Central bank did a 4-5 percent rise in overnight refinancing rates to 22 percent from 18 percent on secured deposits and to 25 percent from 20 percent on unsecured deposits, this helped drive the UAH up to 8.6 to the dollar from about 9/US$ on Thursday, when the currency touched 10/US$ at one point. Analysts at Ukrgazbank said the hryvnia's rate next week depended entirely on subjective factors. "As a consequence, next week the hryvnia-dollar rate could be 6/$ or 12/$. There are no clear parameters for the market."

It's going to be a tough winter in Ukraine. Kevin_K Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 12/21/2008 8:10:27 AM   Ukraine’s currency fell 45 percent against the dollar since July 1, prompting a warning from an aide of President Viktor Yushchenko this week that 60 percent of foreign-currency loans and mortgages may go into default because of the higher repayment costs. The ex-Soviet nation’s ability to stem the decline is limited by an agreement for a $16.4 billion International Monetary Fund bailout that prohibits reserves from falling more than 4 percent by year-end from $32.8 billion. “The rate move today will only provide short-term relief,” said Nigel Rendell, an emerging-markets strategist at RBC Capital Markets in London. “Interest rates don’t fix macro- economic problems, they only put sticking plaster over them.” peteb Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 12/23/2008 9:07:59 AM   cheers for the rosey picture kevin! no one that i know here is 'bundling winter clothes'! and as for the heating, afaik it only went off the one time due to the ukraine gas supplier turning off gas to power plants 5 and 6 due to non payment. the government hadn't paid the required subsidy to the power company to enable them to pay in full. but ok... still not a good situation! i'm not trying to say things are great... our friends that have to pay their rent in usd are obviously not in a great situation at all. but the local puzata hata and bars are as packed as ever, so most people round here have at least a few spare grv! looks like 1usd is worth about 8grv at the moment... /pete gecko Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 12/24/2008 8:23:54 PM   inflation soon will rain down on kiev like a monsoon. think about it. as prices of oil and well, everything go up, the pensions of all the old people, and there is plenty of them will rise, and the government will have to start printing money for the people to survive with only basic necessities. also, with the price of real estate exploding in and around kiev so that even a modest apartment is more than 50g. wow. can you imagine a 50g mortgage at 20% interest on 1g a month salary. I honestly don't know how they do it. There must be foreclosures and the government will bail out the homeowners because they don't want the people to be out on the street. Yulia has a big heart and the government will start printing money to cover that ticking time bomb. i'm not an economist, but I don't think you need to be one to see that something is seriously wrong here. what does this mean to us? not much. maybe a slight advantage. but the girls who are looking for foreign love do it in relatively good economic loves. the girls that look for love only when times get tough are the ones you need to worry about. Kevin_K Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 12/26/2008 3:13:42 AM   Ukraine is mourning the victims of Wednesday's blast at a block of flats in the Black Sea resort of Yevpatoria that left at least 22 people dead. Officials said 21 people had been rescued but a further 20 tenants were still missing. Two entrances to the five-storey building were blocked by falling concrete following the blast. The cause is unknown, although officials believe that gas cylinders may be to blame. robleach55 Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 12/29/2008 5:41:53 AM   hi anybody been to simferolpol lately whats it like ?? ive been talking to Chris over about apartments to rent is he OK ?? anybody had dealings with him ?? is much English spoken there as my Russians shite, anybody want cheap flights try Whizzair only fly from luton but cheap as chips!!!! if anybodies going in jan we could meet up!!! nuerotic Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 12/29/2008 5:12:08 PM   robleach55, I'm going to Berdyansk Jan 17. thru the 23rd beemer18 Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 12/29/2008 6:21:35 PM   Rob...chris is a good guy, only have spoken to him on phone but I would trust him to take care of anything needed. Been a while since I have been to simferopol....not much to do, small center...but does have an outside skating rink( nice and cold for jan). I recomend a day trip to sevastopol, yalta and if have time alushta. The mountains there remind me of LA. Rag'n'Bull Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 12/29/2008 7:38:50 PM   Yes, Chris is OK, Wizzair are cr@p, I don't do 3 hour flights without a hot meal on offer! If booking at very short notice then have a look at Alitalia from London (via Italy) to Kiev, don't book Alitalia too far in advance though because they are in even deeper s.h.1.t. than is possible to imagine, never mind chapter 11, try chapter one thousand and 11 :) Kirkland Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 12/31/2008 3:49:43 PM   Economy in Kiev is becoming a crisis. (If it isn't already). Just read on BBC "Gazprom said it would cut Ukraine's supply from 0700 GMT on Thursday". They did it before and they'll do it again...no false promises there. That's some start to the new year for the folks in Ukraine. Was wanting to phone a close friend who lives in Kiev. But what the hell can you say? It's -8 there already. Hope she'll be ok. Rag'n'Bull Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 1/1/2009 1:19:25 PM   Kirkland, I recall back to the 'Orange Revolution' of 2004, Christmas & New Year period. I was planning to travel there but watching the BBC one could have been convinced there was a civil war going on. Fortunately I had good contacts there who said 'OK' to travel and when I got there the centre of Kiev, according to the BBC the 'waring factions', well it was more like a giant street party, no problem whatsoever. BBC = British (Engliand) Broadcasting Crap. Rag'n'Bull Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 1/1/2009 7:35:49 PM   It was on BBCrap an hour (ish) ago that they have cut off the gas supply to Ukraine. Well that's the rest of the EU gas gone for a burton, Ukraine will just dig up the EU pipelines, under their territory, and help themselves. I don't need gas anyway :) Adman Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 1/1/2009 9:57:55 PM   Ukraine does not need to dig the pipeline up. It is the same gas pipeline feeds Europe and Ulraine. Russia can not shut the gas off to Ukraine without shutting off Europe. Its a big problem for Russia. The only way russia can get around it is to lay a pipe through the black sea but thats going to take years. Of course when Russia eventually lays this pipeline Ukraine will be stuffed. colin Member send PM   block PM add to buddies Send: 1/2/2009 6:16:55 AM   on ukraine news website it said europes gas was seperate and still running through, the ukraine said if theirs isnt turned back on they will takes europes Your Reply: Your name:   New Registration Password:   Forgot password?   refresh Code:   Russian brides > Main Forum > Economic crisis drives more girls to the agencies?
