This is a great idea! I wonder why all economists haven't widely adopted this (economics is alleged to be a science, you know.)
I can just imagine having the following conversation: "Dad, can I have a dekadollar to go out with my friends?" "No, sorry kid, I don't have a centidollar!"
But seriously, especially since France already started this with Francs, is there any indication that the EU will use it with Euros? I think that it would start there, if anywhere.
As Pat pointed it out, the use of kF, MF, ... was restricted to economic circles. I never heard that in lay people language.
I suspect (I am now retired) that in French economic circles, they are using k�, M�, ... (il's just bigger!).
Because the economy is really integrated in Europe, certainly this holds true in Germany, Italy,... and other countries of the Euroland.
