    What's the best way to wire money overseas?
    I am a non-US citizen that used to live in the US.
    I have a bank account since then and there's 1000K+ in the account.

    I would like to wire the full amount to my own account in Greece, where now I reside, but
    What is the best way considering the exchange rate, transaction fee (and tax? )?

    And it's a question on the Greek side, but
    Would it be better to wire it to my own account? Or to someone else's account if I have to pay tax?
    I am married to a Greek, but not a Greek citizen.

    Thank you very much in advance.
