The Mexfiles has never expected to turn a profit, but personal funds only go so far, and I rack up considerable expenses beyond the time and effort that goes into posting and research. Donations to cover miscellaneous expenses ... telephone and internet connection, subscriptions, spyware and virus checkers...average about 400-500 Pesos a month. Donations are gratefully accepted. Please note that your donations are in Mexican Pesos (13 to 15 pesos to the US Dollar). 500 pesos donation is about 40 US dollars.
