I'm not sure why ppl downvoted you. But from what I've heard - never implemented myself - what you're saying is common... At least as far as using separate fixed point values to represent the left and right sides of the decimal place. Now I'm sure for things like computing interest by raising things to a power or even computing percentages, etc, floating point is used (and eventually reduced to fixed point values), so maybe someone found it too absolute to say "all" financial math is fixed point? Anyway, if someone with experience can confirm or deny, it would be neat...
