Live Cuban in U.S.A. who send money to their familly in Cuba?

Thanks Apolyton!!

remittance?

JM

[Arrian]

I'm not sure there is a specific term for that.

I'd say something like "expatriates who send money to their families in the old country" or something like that...

edit: expatriate remittance?

Thanks guy,

1. The sending of money to someone at a distance.
2. The sum of money sent.

Now, I just need to translate it in French, and my bottle of Rum is coming right to Canada in February!!!

In republic dominican they called it:
Remisa!

Been reading spam e-mails again have we?

It's interesting how much the omission or inclusion of a comma in a thread title can change its meaning.

[CrONoS]

sorry about the comma. After reading it again, i must confess it can be really confusing!!!

I need help also.

More like a.. short commitment. I know what you guys will think but this is different so hear me out. There's this guy in Romania who is directly from the bloodline of Dracula. This means, that he is entitled to a lot of money. He is filing a law suit for various of Hollywood companies, because he never recieved any royalties, but the thing is, he is not rich and we need like at least 30k for lawyers.

Anyone who is willing to help (one person) will get in return 10% of the money that will be won from the companies, that should be about one billion dollars (1,000,000,000 US DOLLARS) fresh and clean. Help out the prince and bring some justice to this world.

I'm sorry Pekka, but thats just change for me. Since I've tapped myself to the Japans Postal Banks accounts my credit card limit has risen from 1000 € to a much more a convenient 330 trillion yen or roughly 3.5 trillion €

Ok, so we need to set you up with a psychiatrist?

MrFun, I should be a psychatrist. I could help a lot of people.

Torturing people would not count as "helping," Pekka.
