title: Anagular2 Pipes - Currency abbreviation
body: <p>In angular2, we can used pipes to format numbers. For example:</p>
  
  <p><code>{{selectedTeam.teamSalary | currency: 'USD':true}}</code></p>
  
  <p>This gives us something like <code>$152,524,668.00</code></p>
  
  <p>The Angular2 Pipes documentation doens't cover a whole lot of specifics so my question is, is there a way to (using angular2 pipes) to convert a number like $152,524,668.00 to $152.5m?</p>
  
  <p>This question gives me code to do it, but looking for a more 'Anulgar2-specific' way to do it (if one exists).</p>
