MY Bank ?
I've been doing "research" too.... for 25 years, my bank has been my local teachers credit union !
Solvent,
Independant
Member Driven
Plenty of money to loan to members
No hand out asking for taxpayer $
But then it is not . . . "TOO BIG TO FAIL"
Not sure what this has to do with guns.... Unless it is through that song...:

"gov't"??????!!!!!!!!!! Only difference is they wouldn't be subject to stockholder input. Just Obama input!!!!! And if that happens, next thing
will be "time to turn in your guns folks" says Poloski & Obama. And we are getting close to that happening!!!! They won't find MY guns. Oh my
gosh. I forgot that yesterday I was to go down and buy more bullets!!!!!!!!! And if you are thinking of acquiring a or some guns, you've got to buy
then from private parties, otherwise you have to register your purchase. I'm not sure if that applies to rifles or AK47's or not?????? suddenly
owning an AK47 or equivelant doesn't sound so bad as it did a year ago.

Everything has been at 15:1 for the past two days- EXCEPT the money exchange businesses. They must be totally in denial or maybe hope it's a misprint.

Don't know about ATMs but I'll be finding out what Santander gives later today. Last night the local (in TJ) OXXO was 14.10 to 1.

No one in Mexico is ging to give you the BEST exchange rate at the cash register. You were very lucky to get 14:1. Convert your dollars to pesos
first and withdraw pesos from an ATM- anything but paying in Dollars and expecting to come out on top.
We just saved about $250 on a set of SUV tires versus stateside by getting the price quote in pesos and paying in Pesos.
