  • In this video I share with you the exchange rate from Dollars to Pesos. We also visit a small corner store to check and compare Dominican prices to American prices. With the Dollar becoming stronger and stronger every year this makes the Dominican Republic the idea place to retire for American expats.

    The dollar continues to get stronger in Dominican Republic. This means you money stretches further as this happens. In this video I tell you what the current exchange rate is and the price of a few items in the grocery store compared to the US. Also if you are looking for apartments check on this video where I show you 2 basic style apartments for under $300 ruclips.net/video/S7nVy9ke7do/видео.html

    Woow that's great. When I was there the exchange rate was 51.90! You could also do a video on being cautious on spending Dominican money at night. The 500 bills and the 2000 bills is almost the same color. And you especially have to be careful with the 100 bills and 1000 bills at night, especially after having a drink or 2.. Lol

    What is the average employment income and does it cover the average cost of living expenses? What is considered average income and expenses to live normal in Santo Domingo? Also do you have a video on schools for American Expat children wanting to attend ? I was told that an expat can attend public school in the DR till 8 grade but then after that they must be a resident to continue going to public school or the alternative is private school which is more expensive than private schools here in the USA. What are your thoughts and advices??? 🤷🏻‍♀️

      The average cost for a unprofessional job is around 15,000 pesos and for professional its about 25,000 to 35,000 pesos. I don't have a video on schools in DR yet. I'm not kowledgable on the requirements for school. I will have to do some research. Maybe I will do one on that in a future video.

    How does exchanges work? Can i exchange cash or does it have to be from a card? Can I use a card or does it have to be cash ? Is there a limit to how much I can exchange at once ? How common are these places that exchange currency ? Can I exchange currency at the airport and do they allow cash, card or both at the airport exchange (if there is one)? How safe am i storing a large amount of American currency in my place(2nd story apartment that has a locked door to enter the building and, of course, a locked door to enter the apartment). I don’t want to leave my money in my American bank for a long period of time so I plan on arriving with less than $10000 in cash as permitted by law but I would like to get a lot more of my money out of the bank as soon as possible and either store it in a Dominican bank or a safe in my apartment. Love your channel 🙂

    • @NorberisR
      @NorberisR  4 года назад

      Yes, you can exchange cash and you can also take money from a debit card at a ATM. You can take money from a credit card if you go to a bank. I havent heard whether there's a limit on how much you can exchange. However, I wouldn't do more than $3000 at one time. These exchange places are all over but I recommend exchanging at banks or Vimencas you get better rates. Dont exchange in the airport the rates are low. Your money should be safe in your apartment but again I dont know where you are staying and the security level just be careful.
