Do taught us a trick with ATMs and fees. Do taught us a trick with ATMs and fees. Do you remember what that was? Because that you remember what that was? Because that you remember what that was? Because that was really invaluable to us. was really invaluable to us. was really invaluable to us. >> Yeah. So when you go to use u an ATM the >> Yeah. So when you go to use u an ATM the >> Yeah. So when you go to use u an ATM the first thing you want to do is make sure first thing you want to do is make sure first thing you want to do is make sure that you are using a card that reimbures that you are using a card that reimbures that you are using a card that reimbures ATM fees. So like a Charles Schwab is ATM fees. So like a Charles Schwab is ATM fees. So like a Charles Schwab is known a certain card. Um, if I go use my known a certain card. Um, if I go use my known a certain card. Um, if I go use my Charles Charles Schwab ATM card, it's Charles Charles Schwab ATM card, it's Charles Charles Schwab ATM card, it's going to be, say, for example, a $5 fee, going to be, say, for example, a $5 fee, going to be, say, for example, a $5 fee, but then at the end of the month, they but then at the end of the month, they but then at the end of the month, they add up all those fees and they reimburse add up all those fees and they reimburse add up all those fees and they reimburse them. Um, the other the most important them. Um, the other the most important them. Um, the other the most important thing on the ATM is when they say, "Do thing on the ATM is when they say, "Do thing on the ATM is when they say, "Do you want us to convert the currency?" you want us to convert the currency?" you want us to convert the currency?" This was it. This was it. This was it. >> It's so easy to go, "Oh, sure. You do >> It's so easy to go, "Oh, sure. You do >> It's so easy to go, "Oh, sure. You do not want to do that. you always decline not want to do that. you always decline not want to do that. you always decline the currency conversion because the rate the currency conversion because the rate the currency conversion because the rate will not be in your favor and that's in will not be in your favor and that's in will not be in your favor and that's in addition to the fee the fee. So I found addition to the fee the fee. So I found addition to the fee the fee. So I found out that out the hard way in Mexico and out that out the hard way in Mexico and out that out the hard way in Mexico and I had withdrawn something like $300 and I had withdrawn something like $300 and I had withdrawn something like $300 and I was shocked to see it was like a $50 I was shocked to see it was like a $50 I was shocked to see it was like a $50 change like change like change like >> in the conversion rate conversion rate.

>> in the conversion rate conversion rate. >> in the conversion rate conversion rate. Yeah. like $300 was taken out of my Yeah. like $300 was taken out of my Yeah. like $300 was taken out of my account, but the money equivalency that account, but the money equivalency that account, but the money equivalency that I received was $250. And I will never I received was $250. And I will never I received was $250. And I will never make that mistake again. Always decline make that mistake again. Always decline make that mistake again. Always decline the currency conversion. And your bank the currency conversion. And your bank the currency conversion. And your bank will do the conversion using the will do the conversion using the will do the conversion using the accurate daily rate. Same thing with accurate daily rate. Same thing with accurate daily rate. Same thing with credit card. If you're using a credit credit card. If you're using a credit credit card. If you're using a credit card abroad, oftentimes the merchant card abroad, oftentimes the merchant card abroad, oftentimes the merchant will say, "Do you want this in the local will say, "Do you want this in the local will say, "Do you want this in the local currency or in US dollars?" You say, "In currency or in US dollars?" You say, "In currency or in US dollars?" You say, "In the local." Because then your the credit the local." Because then your the credit the local." Because then your the credit card company will convert it. card company will convert it. card company will convert it. Great point. Great point. Great point. >> That saved I mean that saved us money. I >> That saved I mean that saved us money. I >> That saved I mean that saved us money. I can't remember the whole details of it, can't remember the whole details of it, can't remember the whole details of it, but I remember when we did that and I but I remember when we did that and I but I remember when we did that and I was like, "Oh my gosh, this is a huge was like, "Oh my gosh, this is a huge was like, "Oh my gosh, this is a huge difference." difference." difference." >> And every country is different. Thailand >> And every country is different. Thailand >> And every country is different. Thailand is one where it's about seven or eight is one where it's about seven or eight is one where it's about seven or eight US dollars to use an ATM. And it's not a US dollars to use an ATM. And it's not a US dollars to use an ATM. And it's not a separate fee line item, so you don't get separate fee line item, so you don't get separate fee line item, so you don't get reimbursed.

So, you want to minimize >> how many times you go. >> how many times you go. >> how many times you go. >> How many times you go. So, I always take >> How many times you go. So, I always take >> How many times you go. So, I always take more than I think I need because I'm more than I think I need because I'm more than I think I need because I'm going to spend it. And then at the end going to spend it. And then at the end going to spend it. And then at the end of a trip, I pay off as much as if like of a trip, I pay off as much as if like of a trip, I pay off as much as if like I have a hotel bill with all the cash I I have a hotel bill with all the cash I I have a hotel bill with all the cash I have left and then only put what's left have left and then only put what's left have left and then only put what's left over on a credit card. And then because over on a credit card. And then because over on a credit card. And then because you're going to pay like 3%, but you're going to pay like 3%, but you're going to pay like 3%, but oftentimes that's less than, oftentimes that's less than, oftentimes that's less than, >> right, >> right, >> right, >> going and spending another $8 at an ATM.

>> going and spending another $8 at an ATM. >> going and spending another $8 at an ATM.

Because storage fees $2,000 on storage." Because storage fees $2,000 on storage." Because storage fees can go up at any point in time. And they can go up at any point in time. And they can go up at any point in time. And they do. Uh you just get a notification do. Uh you just get a notification do. Uh you just get a notification and they say, "I never needed to put my and they say, "I never needed to put my and they say, "I never needed to put my stuff in storage." However, if you stuff in storage." However, if you stuff in storage." However, if you needed to do it in order to get on the needed to do it in order to get on the needed to do it in order to get on the plane, then it was it's just something plane, then it was it's just something plane, then it was it's just something that you needed to do. It was part of that you needed to do. It was part of that you needed to do. It was part of your process. If you are not emotionally your process. If you are not emotionally your process. If you are not emotionally attached to your things, then sell them. attached to your things, then sell them. attached to your things, then sell them. I think nobody can really answer that I think nobody can really answer that I think nobody can really answer that question for you. Um, I have a garage question for you.
