be warned, if you are not here in person at the maturity date to act on this money, the bank is not going to roll it into another account and pay you big fat interest, no, no, it will pay a really stinky rate and with a fluctuating exchange rate for dollars/pesos you can lose money big time. plan on being here in 3, 6, 12 or whatever, it may be time to turn those pesos into dollars or buy another CD. this investment should be large enough that the interest justifies the plane tkt.
