Trivia for the Day:    HOW DID WE GET THE 'DOLLAR'  ($)   SYMBOL?

 

Answer:                      In the pioneer days, they symbol for currency was 'US' - the "S" was placed directly over the "U" and in time, we got lazy and instead of "US" overlapping, we shortened the "U" into today's "S" with two lines through it.
