The 3 Wonderful Lessons We Learned from the Romanians Who Send Money Home
We now live in exceptional times all over the world and we think more than ever of our homes and families. How can we better support our loved ones, protect them, and keep them close to us, regardless of the distances?
Here are some wonderful eye-opening lessons that the Romanians have taught us over the time at Opal Transfer:
Be kind for real and live a simple life Romanians are extremely generous: did you know that some of them send even 80% of their salary home, to their families? Neither did we, until we got in touch with the Romanian community at Opal Transfer and found out their personal stories. Romanians only keep for themselves a small amount of the money they earn, to cover the essential needs for their simple life abroad. They send the rest of the money home, as soon as they get their salary.
Love your family more than you love yourself Parents, spouses, and children – these are people that Romanians care for most. Over £8 million is sent home to their close family members by Romanians each year, through Opal Transfer.
Think about the future and how you can make it better Apart from money transfers for everyday expenses (such as bills, rent, mortgage, food, and basics), the Romanians’ money transfers are related to a better future they canoffer to their loved ones: children (through education), elderly parents (through health care), relatives and friends (through financial support and small gifts). All these total over £12 million a year, generously sent by Romanians to their loved ones through Opal Transfer.
At Opal Transfer, we value Romanians’ great spirit of self-sacrifice and their endless love for the family. We make sure that Romanians’ transfers are as easy, fast, and safe as possible. So that the Romanian family is always connected, supported, and protected.
