Dear Hillary,
Just a quickie. I want to send a girl I met last time I was up on holidays some money for her birthday which she tells me is just before Songkran later this year, but I’ve been told by some mates that it’s not too safe sending money by post to Thailand. As I won’t be back in Thailand till around Xmas this year, it is a bit late to bring it over myself. What’s your suggestion? The safer the better. I do want to make sure she gets it.
John
Dear John,
That is very nice and kind of you, but your little lady friend will soon tell you the best way, if you haven’t worked it out before Santa comes down the chimney. You don’t post it, you transfer it to her bank account, and she will have one, believe me! Posting is a no-no! She will know everything as far as money transfers are concerned, and even the daily currency conversion rates as well!
