Vincent there are some large actually giant farms in our area that use this program. mostly south African displaced white farmers from the apartheid situation. mostly great workers. so couple years ago we went to a turkey hunting trade show in Nashville. so there was a vendor from south Africa booking big game hunts there for like 4-5000. seemed almost to cheap to be true. turns out the exchange rate of us dollar to their currency is like 18 to 1. so a 5000 hunt returns like 90000 to them. so workers from that area are actually making out very nicely by sending the money back home that is earned in us dollars. nobody ever mentions this or even thinks about it I've noticed.
