While I was at VBits, they mentioned about the Currency data type being removed and to use double. What was weird was that the double is better because you get more precision with more decimal places..Now here is the question. Who here has ever had 1 dollar and .99564433 cents?

I designed a system for metered water billing. You get the unit charges being 3/4 decimal places which when multiplied with the reading can give values that you need calculated accurately.
