Look at the Recent Statistics Before You Transfer Money to Mexico Money transfers to Mexico are the country's second largest source of income. Considering how many Mexicans work in the United States and send money home, and how many of them are out of jobs, it should not be shocking to know that remittances have plummeted. 2008 was the first time in several years that the number of money transfers declined. In 2009, it got worse, with the number dropping by about 19 percent for the month of April from the same month in 2008.The typical amount sent to Mexico is in the billions. However, the number is falling fast, from $26 billion in 2007 to $25 billion in 2008. In fact, the drop exceeded the amount that officials expected it to fall, even after putting much research into the issue. It likely has to do with the lack of available jobs in the Untied States compared to years ago. Not only are many Mexicans in this country either out of a job or suffering from fewer hours, but the lack of jobs has also discouraged many from emigrating from their home country in the first place. Important industries like tourism and manufacturing have also been crippled by the economy recently,...more

On the Fact That Money Will Always Be Not Enough Let's face the fact that unless we're filthy rich, the money in our pockets will always be not enough. There will be times when we will not even have much cash that we could use to answer both our needs and our wants. What is more horrible is when you lacked money that is needed to spend during dire situations such as emergencies.In order to fill in the gaps in our budget, we have to take loans. We usually borrow funds from some of our family members and friends because they are the ones closest and most accessible to us. However, the money that they can lend to us can only be in small amounts, thus the budgetary gaps are still left unfilled.We then have no recourse but to apply for loans in banks because they are the ones with the capacity to loan us huge amounts of money. Unlike asking help from family and friends, banks are very strict in terms of loan requirements. The process of loan approval is long and cumbersome. Worst, we will not be able to get the exact amount that we applied for, no thanks to bank deductions.The best recourse for us then is to apply for a payday loan. Payday advance loans are usually small,...more
