Reason For Package

thx to the owner of the excellent fuentes package upon which this was based i needed the ability to handle multiple accounts currencys and cldr, this is what it morphed into. fuentes had some build problems when i used it but it was long ago, and i was living outdoors at the time it served as good refresher for the elixir language.
