Hey, just wondering what everyone thinks is the Best Monger Bank. Maybe its because of their locations in all the best mongering destinations. Maybe its because of the best exchange rate or the amount of money they let you remove daily. Maybe its because they credit back ATM fees or currency conversion fees.

What bank do you think is MONGER APPROVED?

Capital One. They have no foreign transaction fees. Or at least they didn't - who can tell now as rules seem to change frequently in this economic climate.

This is a slight change of topic and maybe I should post separately so it doesn't get buried but here's a chart of ForexTrans fees for credit cards:

Now don't think I am naive, but I actually had an initial thought on the title "come on, even at the bank?". Why is this the first I heard of it? How can this possibly be? Do you exchange your money, check out the latina tellers with their sexy white blouses while hanging out in the lobby, and select one at closing time (bank exit fee applicable?)? What's next, break-the-tension hummer by the hot latina stewardess in the lavatory on your arriving flight? :) "Coke, Peanuts or BBBJ? Ok caballero, necesito 30K colones". "Uhm, I only tengo dollares, senorita, $60 sounds goodo to mio".

" most of the girls down here, lie as a self defense mechanism and to not have to face the truth, thinking most men couldn't accept them knowing the whole truth. Simpler, they may just want men to think they are as perfect as they want to appear to them, trying to hide what they consider to be the ugly truth about themselves. And I may be reading more into it than is there, but I do believe they consider the basis of the lies to be justified."
