hey what's up youtube back with your boy
luke hey guys today we're going to be
talking about exchanging money in mexico
and whether or not you should exchange
your dollars for pesos or pesos for
dollars
and the answer to that question is if
you're going to be in the border towns
such as tijuana juarez laredo nogales
no do not exchange your money for the
most part you're going to be just fine
with dollars
hey after this video like and subscribe
to my channel i lived in tijuana for 10
years
i know what i'm talking about folks just
bear with me okay you see these pesos
right here
there's absolutely no reason for you to
change your dollars
for pesos unless you're going to be
going down there
paying money to an official mexican
government office
or paying something like a water bill or
an electricity bill at a kiosk
otherwise stick with dollars dollars and
border towns are going to be welcomed
they're almost going to be preferred
also
what you don't want to do is you don't
want to cross the border and change your
money
at a change house and you're going to
lose three four five percent right off
the bat
then you're going to go and do whatever
you have to do in mexico then you're
going to cross
back across the border into the united
states and you're gonna change what you
have left and you're gonna lose another
three four five percent
okay and trust me if you're going down
there to party in zona north day
you're not gonna get the best bang for
the buck for the peso okay
now in south mexico things change
i am specifically talking about border
towns such as
tijuana tecate san luis palomas
ciudad juarez laredo brownsville texas
down there uh
in renosa okay the u.s dollar is going
to be preferred
also folks keep in mind that keep in
mind that atm cards and debit cards do
work in mexico okay
and a lot of the atm machines in mexico
will give you an option to give you
either american cash
or mexican pesos anyways hey i've seen a
lot of videos on youtube where
you can tell these people have just
crossed the border for a day and they're
making a video about their day trip to
mexico and they say change your money
that is bs that is not true i'm very
seldom do you actually need to change
your money okay
so remember that folks stay with the
green
toss the red until next time see you
later
