How many Soles do Peruvian ATMs usually charge to withdraw money if you aren't a member of their bank?
I'm just trying to calculate the cost of getting money at an ATM vs. going to a casa de cambio. Anybody know the typical % above the accepted exchange rate most people are getting at the exchange houses or banks?
3 AnswersPeru1 decade agoDo you change money or travelers checks when you travel abroad or use ATM's and Credit Cards?
I've always used my ATM cards to get cash or put things on my credit card. But it has been a while since I've bought foreign currency. I know my banks and credit cards will charge a 1% fee for foreign transactions. If those were the only fees it would be a simple decision, but there are also ATM fees and many of the countries I travel to will charge a service charge for using a credit card. Often around 5%.
What have been Exchange Houses been marking up transactions for cash or travler's checks?

3 AnswersPeru1 decade agoLima, Peru travel advice?
I'll be going at the end of August beginning of Sept for ~6 days. I'll probably look for a hotel in the Miraflores neighborhood, but if there are better neighborhoods, please do tell or I'll take advice for comfortable affordable hotels.
I'd like suggestions on friendly bars, clubs, social places where a foreign guy can meet people that will talk to him (possible show him around later).
I'd like to also see the Nazca lines. Will probably just fly out. Any advice on arranging that?
What other quick day trips do you recommend or off the radar things to do.
I wouldn't mind volunteering someplace for a day. Any advice?
3 AnswersPeru1 decade agoIf I ask a question about credit or money how many recommendations for easy ways to make money will I get?
I don't think spammers read these questions before posting their garbage. I've got plenty of money and no debt, so I don't need to make extra money on the internet.
What do you think?

And this was in the form of US Gov't bonds. If these are real bonds, that would mean the men are the US's forth largest creditor.

1 AnswerInsurance & Registration1 decade agoHow does forfeited interest play out on your taxes?
I was cashing out a CD at bank, and they wound up causing a delay until after the grace period was over before closing the account. They are showing on my statement that I made $30.00 in interest and forfeited $30.00 in interest. Will this wash out on 1040A or am I going to wind up paying taxes on their mistake or have to complicate my taxes to not get taxed on the interest I "forfeited"?
1 AnswerUnited States1 decade agoIf you cash out a CD during the banks 10-day grace period after maturity, do you get interest?
I'm talking about the time during the 10 day period. If my original CD had interest compounded daily, do banks usually give you the interest you earn during those days if you cash out on day 9 of the grace period?
1 AnswerPersonal Finance1 decade agoiPhone 3g sudden battery drain?
My iPhone was fairly near full charge last night. I woke up and it was at~25%, I plugged it in to USB for a little over an hour and the bar indicated that it was around 75-80% charged. Now 5 hours later and no talking/web surfing/texting, etc. it is back down to about 30%. Only unlocked for 10 minutes tops.
What would cause my battery to suddenly drain so quickly? It is not on push, it only checks for new data every 30 minutes
1 AnswerCell Phones & Plans1 decade agoWhat's the deal with Crocs?
It seems to me that people only make fun of people wearing Crocs. They are certainly ugly, so why do people wear them? What could be so great about them that you would put a hunk of green plastic with random holes on your feet?
Not trying to be mean to anybody, but I just don't get it.
