But, the value of the dollar in different countries is different, and that's what we are going to learn about next.

Before we do that, though, I would like to have you all work on converting wizarding money into the United States dollar. To start, I want to see if you can figure out $100.00 in United States money is equal to in wizarding world money. Everyone, go ahead and use your calculators to perform this exercise, please. We'll be using this calculator a bit more then move on to the other calculator, then the second part of the lesson."

Cadence raised her hand. 20 galleons, 13 sickles, and 17 knuts, Professor.

It's the way I've watched you change me from a boy into a man. It's a million things about you, and I don't know what it is. I have never known a love like this.
