A reminder to watch our spending while overseas. 

A survey by money transfer company Wise has found almost half of respondents say they spend in the moment and worry later, and a similar number say money doesn’t feel ‘real’ overseas. 

More than four in ten say they go over-budget. 

Wise's travel spending expert Anhar Khanbhai told Heather du Plessis-Allan that over-spending becomes really easy as a result of the complexities of managing money overseas and the use of bank-issued cards. 

She says those cards are really expensive, having both a foreign transaction fee and using inflated exchanged rates.
