Probably correct. My friend works for a large bank in BA and he said that money is still coming in. People are paying a % now but money is still coming in because people want to invest it in properties or he said some locals are finally entering the stock market which he said they never did...

I actually think installing cameras everywhere is not a bad idea if it can stop crime. Saw this and great they got the thief!

That is crazy that people cheat like that. No wonder Argentina is having so many problems.

Same! I just went to Istanbul and my hotel was full of tourists getting it done. Same at airport. I was surprised. I had no idea it was like that.

Exactly. Many people can finally feel change for the first time in their lives. It’s why he is so popular with the younger generation.

@StatusNomadicus wow that is not much at all. You must budget well. Can you break out your spending on that $1000 to $1500 per month? How often are you going to restaurants?

Besides some grocery items what has stayed stable in dollars since last year? Transportation, restaurants, utility bills, cafes especially. Coffee is much more expensive compared to last year. All my friends complaining about their apartment expenses in dollars going up. Also healthcare...

Most people here are very friendly and appreciate tourists and expats. The economy is horrible and almost everyone appreciates all of these people. I have run into 1 or 2 that seem to be giddy that expats that moved here because it was cheap are opportunistic.

Thank you @StatusNomadicus. I feel the same way with all these taxes that we are paying in the USA. The amount we are sending to Ukraine boggles my mind!

Curious in what circumstances would USDT be seized or frozen?

@dai how much is Starbucks now there? I generally don’t go here in the US but actually went more there. Generally I don’t think the coffee there is too good in most places. I am planning to come back end of this year but may go to Rio instead. Or maybe Spain. I don’t understand how coffee...

😭 Same.

This is an eye opener how slow things are. Have they lowered their ridiculous prices at all? Places here don’t seem to like to lower their prices.

That is a sad statistic. Where is this taken from? About the 9/10 people in debt?

Fires sound like they are rare but I guess they do happen. Just saw this fire in Retiro in the news. Not sure something like that happens. Looks like the water tank.
