I guess I'd tell Ms. Bundchen that if she doesn't want American dollars then she can't have American jobs.

Tracy, USA,

great articel

america - the only true superpower that has 'kept' world peace is crumbling. i live in canada and the canadians can't believe it. the administration is bankrupting the country and couldn't win any of these wars before they started,. Bush will keep his corporate cronies happy, oil will flow in texas and Papa will be proud .

the reality is the whole world is looking to get out of the dollar and it wil only be a matter of time before this administration is not 'eating at the top table'

who remembers the terrible earthquake in Turkey some 10 years ago - Clinton flew straight there to the scene - american approval ratings were over 90% - guess where they are now

i moved to n america because i love the way of life, the people, freedoms etc - but can't the American people see that there's 200 other odd countries who have their own agendas and this administration seriously insults their intelligence

I think people who are (again) exuding anti-americanism on this issue need to take a lesson in economics. The devaluing of the dollar has some serious advantages in a market where China devalues it's own currency and trade deficits are high. People like Ms. Gisele are just trying to make MORE money by essentially cutting out the middle man in a currency market. The greed is from the people who insist on being paid this way, not those who devalue the dollar (which DOES'T enrich you).

Mr. King, Manchester,

So what? That is a political statement having nothing to do with what is best done with her money. Does anyone think that those Euros are going into a vault to be later spent? Rather you think her money will be invested in whatever way that will best protect her finicial interests? And who is to say where that will be?

Money well spent

As an American who cannot stand what this corrupt and illegal administration has done to my great nation I would like to thank Gisele for taking a stand against this lower dollar. There is more to a nation than fast growth. There is stability and economic security. The Fed and the Bush administration are too willing to sacrifice our national currency in their quest for growth. Our nation must focus on lowering the deficit through responsible government, end the bankrupting wars abroad, focus on stability like the Europeans, and give the dollar what it deserves - more value through stability. Good for you Gisele - Michael in CA

I bet Bush, Cheney and Bernanke don't keep their stash in dollar denominated assets either....
