    Yes, better. I'll re-open. BTW, I think the Mexico angle makes this question distinct from other similar ones.

I would start by saying that the bulk of your savings shouldn't be in cash. If you haven't done so already, open an investment account (I'm not sure what kind of tax-advantaged accounts there are in Mexico, but you should look into it). If you buy a mix of stocks and bonds with American and international coverage -- which is as easy as buying a handful of index funds -- then you're protected from inflation in Mexico.
