Forget about the Big Mac Index and say hello to the supermodel index:
The world's richest model has reportedly reacted in her own way to the sliding value of the US dollar - by refusing to be paid in the currency.

Gisele Bündchen is said to be keen to avoid the US currency because of uncertainty over its strength.

The Brazilian, thought to have earned about $30m in the year to June, prefers to be paid in euros, her sister and manager told the Bloomberg news agency.
Who wouldn't? The dollar is crap now. It's even enough to get Pat Buchanan spun up. If only I had any idea what to do with the two nickels I've saved up through the years. Lord knows I can't melt them down. Maybe I should trade them for 10 pennies.
