Commonwealth.. Common ah?

Hmm.. what doth the Commonwealth mean? From this complex word, I think it should be saying that the wealth is common in all these countries. However, it seems to be the contrary. Why is it that the Pound Sterling has the highest value and the majority of the Commonwealth have very low values for their currencies? Of course don't compare with the US cos they are not in the picture. Isn't it so that Britain should spread out its wealth so the it is Common Wealth for all? It looks like all the wealth is stashed in Britain itself. Hmm.. Just a thought though..

Do I have anything in common with you? :D
Yeah, I do.
We blog, we talk crap when we see each other, and we love Macs. :D

Common Wealth?
It means all the wealth is bringing to Britain, and we only have a small share from the ‘common wealth’! For sure, the main share has the ‘big fish with it’ and we only have ‘part of it’!
