Don't do that.  Read up on the Web about the properties of binary
floating-point representations.  They are not decimal and if you have
specific precision requirements you should carefully analyze how the
floating-point numbers will impact them first.  Most people doing
currency calculations should be using integers and treating them as
fixed-point values.  (The others are the ones who already know enough
to recognize exactly why their cases are different.)
