I have a weird rich kid story. My dad gave my siblings and I a lump sum that I saved for a while. After a couple of years, as my job had ended, I just bought a small CNC router and toyed with it at home, re-did the electronics, re-did the s

Americans seems to be enamored with credit unions, when I went to one to look into it, they told me they don’t do international wires and that only big banks do it (I didn’t go check at other unions).
