wow!

so a 99p chocolate bar there is sooo expensive

Not expensive, as it's a conversion. It's the same value as 99p.........

Actually you're wrong. The people now are very poor and in comparison the chocolate bar is very expensive.

For example, last year they could have had Z$100,000, which was enough for say, 100 chocolate bars, but now that's worth enough for 1 piece of rice.

To add to sam's, the country hasn't made money, it's just the prices have gone up. Say you only had £5 pounds, and you bought a cd for £5.
But in a year, you have another £5, but inflation has made the cd over 2 million pounds.

It's not the wealth, it's the currency that's there's a shortage of, I think.
