You could do the same if the dollar sign is on the other side though.

$100

$1000

100.00$ vs $100.00 I guess? Though I suppose you could turn the period into a comma.

But that's why you put the "and no cents ~~~~~~~~" at the end

You could do a similar thing for the other style:

100$

Vs

-------- 100$

I would write it $100, but only because it's convention, either method has the same issue and solutions.

That's the text portion, not the numeric portion.

[–] IzzyScissor 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Oh, I still do the $100.°/oo~~~~ in the numeric section too.

I see. I assumed you meant the words because you put the words in your comment.

Seems like a good idea to do both, as you say.

I don't really write a lot of checks any more.
