Can get paid in bitcoin, usd and eur. Have a western bank, but total fees to make it to cash pesos is at least 1.5%. Still looking to improve on this. Debit card payments are free.
Yes, I save a lot. I live very good here for 1200 usd and eat steak every day. My house gets cleaned, (shared) garden taken care of, that kind of stuff. Close to a lively centro with a lot going on, international community. Can't get anywhere close to that in W-Europe.
And don't forget the time I save not doing bureaucratic paperwork, it doesn't interest Mexico where I get my money from; as long as it's from abroad and I spend it here, they're happy.
