Banco Nacional rate today is c660 to $1. Some banks as much as c671 to $1. So c50mil = $75, $60mil = $90. Usually, there is not much reason for WC's cien boys to pay in colones but $10 is $10. Just don't try and hold on to them between trips. The exchange rate knife is dropping, don't try to catch it.

BTW,, c20mil is now $30.

Interesting. Thanks for the heads up. How do these compare to the past?

My first trip in 91. The rate was 290 to one. So the client Boys were paying 30mil, as it climbed, 50 mil was paid, still $100. Now it's still $100 but nearly 70 mil.
Go figure

Okay gotcha, so I’m general colones are worth less compared to the U.S. dollar. I definitely don’t want to be a cien boy but we’ll see what we’re working with down there. I’ll be there end of April into early may. Might have to check out the pensións.
