Lately however, I've been receiving cash. Now cash is nice, it spends well. But in the past it's always been them who've had to send cash from the Czech Republic, or Germany, where ever... to convert their Euros, Pounds, and Crowns to DOLLARS before mailing that shit.

I'm guessing they are sending cash because of their banking laws, or they do not have credit cards or something. Although I can take EU Debit, among other things. But fucking A people....

Stop sending me fucking EUROS.

The Euros to dollar conversion ratio is like $1.54 US to 1 EURO I believe. But banks (local one's) do not convert that shit, and the only place I know of is travel agency downtown.

They do it for a fee ofcourse. While better than worthless paper... it's still a major fucking hastle.

Maybe you could get a foreign currency account and offset the small monthly charge against the cost savings of converting the currency, and going to the travel agent.
