More Wise issues
The exchange rate is but the fees aren't so it is feasible that a Swift or similar transfer works out cheaper. This is usually (only?) found in USD trades as it's the most commonly traded currency and bank spreads are tight. At the moment the spread on USD is 0.88% (spread of 0.3 baht on a mid-market rate of 34.25). For GBP the equivalent is 2.03% (0.9 on 44.49). Wise fees includes a percentage of the amount being transferred so if that %age is higher than the %age bank spread at some point Wise will lose out. Where exactly depends on the fixed Wise fee and the costs of the Swift transfer plus receiving bank fees plus any intermediary fees. The poster you quoted sent in USD and likely fell into this situation as they were talking about total costs and not just the exchange rate. Another poster did the calculations a while back and (for him) Swift was better above approx $20,000 USD IIRC. -

Poverty Rates in the West
Median household income in Australia is what? Here is what AI dug up on median savings (NOT average(mean) which is skewed upwards because of the rich. Savings by Age Group: Under 17s: Have $3017 in savings on average, with a median of $2729. 18 to 24-year-olds: Have an average of $13,069 and a median of $2,410 in savings. 25 to 44-year-olds: Have an average of $29,769 and a median of $811 in savings. 45 to 54-year-olds: Have an average of $52,836 and a median of $1,429 in savings. So. How much savings do you think those who are below 50% of median household income have? Probably not enough to make a bit of difference, -

Worst Joke Ever 2025
Just bought a CD called "Sounds of the 70s". I don’t recommend it though, it's just full of old people wheezing, creaking and moaning.
