Sending Money from Colombia to US

What is the best company to use to send a money transfer from Colombia to the US? I prefer not to use Western Union. Thank you!

Moneygram for smaller amounts to 3,000 dollars or less, but over that bank wire transfers.
Also there are more Moneygram, locals in Colombia than western unions.

And I have loads of time for a little talk about life with any of you heathens that might need directions on how not to stray from the straight and narrow................

Right now I am doing an online 12 hour driving course to get points off my f**kin Florida license..................

I thought this would be a real simple way to do it............f************kkkkkkk..............this is a pain in the assssssss.................and all because the battery on my sunpass went low....

Four tolls missed........approx $3.............so far this is costing me $1500 and it has not even got really started............

15 minutes of 12 hours elapsed.....anyone for tennis....???...........but I can't stray from the computer for more than 2 minutes......................Man...I thought this was going to be easy....

DD.........ahhhhhhh............I have all of 12 hours to properly digest your last comment and speculate as to what you might mean. Could it be that.....perhaps, just perhaps, you are enjoying the little prediciment in which I find myself. Sitting here all lonesome ......tip tapping on my little keyboard. Keeping a close eye out for the " instructor " who could appear at any moment with a question............which I have two minutes to answer.........or else......course over.....FAILED......and no money refunded..............

Ray: verdad sorry to hear of your bad luck, at least you took the time to correct it , as some might have had the idea since I live in Colombia no big deal , which is the wrong mind set.
Good luck and God's speed in your exam , and stay save in Florida.

'what does it mean, when one of you (colombians) tell another: YOU WERE NOT/ARE NOT. 'COLOMBIAN ENOUGH'?? jejeje..a mixture, I think, of stupidity mixed with a false sense of arrogance.. How 'colombian' do you have to be? to be 'colombian enough
