I feel so dumb asking this, I thought I was paying attention with Remittance fees and Strike and the LN.

Now our daughter is in France for a long time, we need to wire her money to her new French Bank account from US Bank.

The options we have are expensive and dumb, anyone know how to do this without my having to give up the Sats I clawed to get from living in the US and depositing to various Lightning wallets?

I would like to be able to send up to $5000 with the least Friction and not trip the alarms our stupid banks have.

Our daughter is a wonderful, upstanding, college student not a criminal nor are we bad actors but we are forced to feel this way.

Thanks a lot Freedom based Les Etats Unis for all my decades of following all the rules and you put me in this box?

Zelle, Wire Transfer, PayPal, Western Union...all awful options with the incredible fees attached.

French Bank is LCL if that matters, not sure if it is best to start from French or American side.

Good God is banking broken worldwide.

Let us live in peace with the money we earned, LEGALLY.
