Here is my situation: I have about $230k Australian dollars and I need to exchange them. Since the amount is so large I was thinking that it's probably worthwhile for me to open my own foreign exchange business just for this one purchase. How does it exactly work? If I go to an exchange bureau they look up a special exchange rate stating the rate THEY will get when they send the actual bills to New York to the stock exchange. This rate is only good for them but not for any normal person. Is this correct so far? So what credential do I need to get the same rate from New York? I assume I have to get a business license here in California. What else? I would greatly appreciate any insights on what steps to take to open my own office. Alternatively, I could find the best rate an exchange office would give me but I fear that their commission is extremely expensive since this is such a large sum I have to exchange. Thank you very much for any suggestions.
