"Hello everyone, I'm Russ Handler, and I love to travel. I'm sure you do too. You know, I'll tell you, one of the most important parts of traveling is not only the saving process, but making sure that while you're traveling, you've got plenty of cash, as well as your credit cards, but most importantly, you don't want too much of this. You do want traveler's checks. Lots of benefits to traveler's checks. Here's how you get em'. Quite simply, go to your favorite bank; that bank which you do business with every day. You go to your bank. You've got several choices. There's Visa, and American Express, and a couple of other choices that are very good for you, and you will ask your banker for travelers checks in the amount that you want. Now, you will have to buy them for a small fee, but seven dollars for traveler's checks is a lot better than losing a thousand dollars worth of cash. Trust me; the travelers checks are easy to obtain, they're easy to use, and most importantly, they will provide you with a backup plan should you lose them. That's what traveler's checks are all about. Again, you need traveler's checks; go to your favorite bank. Ask for Visa or American Express or their preferred brand. They're all the same; they all work the same, and they can be obtained at your local bank. I'm Russ Handler, and that's how you do it."
