It's the amount required to earn interest on a World Currency Access account.
I was incorrect in assuming it was the minimum to start an account...it's 
just the minimum _I_ would have it in, because I do not like savings 
accounts which don't draw interest unless they're held in gold, offshore, 
or both.
