    Puerto Penasco shutting down. What have you heard?

    CNN, FOX it doesn't matter, bias is everywhere, creating division. Hard to find any news source that's middle of the road and might provide a view of what's really happening. But then TRUMPY THE CLOWN likes it just like it is.

    Trumpy really wants a photo of himself on the border wall every 6 Feet for social distancing so he won't be easily forgotten.

    border

    The border restrictions haven't gone as planned, somebody should be a poster child for this debacle. I'm so disappointed there isn't a Trumpy smiley. :shocked:

    Gold stolen again

    Sounds like what's going to happen with the $2 Trillion CV infusion, an open cash register ready to get robbed. There will be many who take unfair advantage of this.

    Peso Falling vs Dollar

    I saw Bud Light 12 pks for 130 pesos at Supernorte 2 weeks ago. Semana Santa usually brings it down to under 100 pesos. This time ?? if they lower it to 100 pesos, $4 for 12 pk,, what a deal.

    Peso Falling vs Dollar

    Mexico flushed them pretty quickly from circulation to avoid confusion, A 1000 peso bill was worth about 30 cents when they dropped the two zeros off. I remember taking close to 300,000 pesos to the bank and received less than $100 in US $$.

    Peso Falling vs Dollar

    Been there and done that, hopefully not a lot of $$. I got 6000 pesos at an ATM last week and thought 20.7-1 was great. Oh well.

    Really need to bite the bullet on this and shut everything down for 3 weeks, Not the popular choice but what's really needed, so we're not bitching about this in June.

    Peso Falling vs Dollar

    Thx, Just goes to show you, I'm older than you Joe. :cool: It was a tough time in Mexico, you would look at a refrigerator to buy and go back 3 days later and the price went up 10% from the Peso devaluation. The Cambio houses had spreads between buy and sell in the 100's of Pesos. The locals...

    Peso Falling vs Dollar

    We went to San Carlos Mexico in Nov 1980, the old Peso was 18-1, when we came back 12 days later, we cashed in our peso's back into dollars it was 25-1. 30% less. WTF!! We didn't know what to think. We went to Penasco 1st time in May 1983 the old Peso was around 80-1 and over the next 10 years...

    Puerto Penasco shutting down. What have you heard?

    A bit more info is needed on that statement. Here is a quote from the CDC response to the H1N1 flu in 2009. "The agency said the first case was reported on April 15, 2009, and the government declared H1N1 a public health emergency on the April 26. The first test to detect the new virus was...

    It always does, but this time it will be different from what happened in past downturns, this time it's happening much, much quicker than anytime before. Also those in power by still dragging their feet which is accelerating this mess.

    I figure if my family had to live at our place in Cholla, we could do it for $1,200 per month easily. So we have a plan B, just in case.

    Puerto Penasco shutting down. What have you heard?

    In the US there were many people who became paper millionaires over the past 5 years and are now watching it unravel before their eyes. How this trickles down to RP, hopefully won't destroy the economy in Mexico. A simpler life style is very appealing right now.

    Toilet Paper

    Some of the Millennial generation are referring to the CV-19 virus as the Boomer Remover. In today's world there are many older and or sickly people who who wouldn't be alive if not for today's modern world of medicine. Keep them alive or let nature take it's way? It's a moral dilemma not many...

    I saw a post that Costco's in Phx area are doing a controlled opening when the doors open, not the mad rush you would expect. TP is now located near the front of stores with a 1 pack per sale. Other items are available but many are limited. As the test kit's become available the cases in the...
