    French Canadian. I once accidentally transferred WAY too much money in a banking transaction because of this.

        100 times. I do everything in English on my computer and for some reason that day my banking session was opened in French. So it ignored the decimal point for cents in the number I entered. I asked to transfer 160.50 bucks (or whatever the exact number was), and it transferred 16 050 instead. Luckily I could fix it with a phone call.
