Making money in Argentina

I'm sorry if you're an aspiring entrepreneur hoping to get tips on some wackadoodle South American get rich quick scheme. This post isn't that. Rather it is a look at the innerworkings of the Argentinian mint as it produces pesos. The video doesn't really make it clear what the steps of producing the notes are, but it is very nicely filmed.

 

Origami from money

 

Nick Cannon, in his post Insane Money Origami, has a number of origami creations from folded bills. Some of them are so elaborate it is hard to figure out how he managed to create them with only a single bill. I guess it is a demonstration of another meaning to the old phrase "stretching a dollar".

There are more examples and after the jump, and of course many more at his original post.
