    Venezuela Election - Will Maduro finally be pushed out of power in Venezuela?

    Hopefully, he is executed like Nicolae and Elene Ceausescu of Romania. Under a fair election sounds like he would have easily have lost. https://apnews.com/live/venezuela-election-updates-maduro-machado-gonzalez

    Culture Shocks from Living in Argentina as an Expat?

    They eat very late at night and that took some getting used to. When local friends would all meet up for dinner it was the time that I usually go to bed. I couldn't cope at first but had to learn to adjust. I still don't like eating that late at night. Especially steak and beef. My stomach gets...

    Love Advice - Fell in love with an escort in Buenos Aires - Is it real love?

    Tough break @fool in love. But agree with the other gentlemen. I have been cheated on a few times and trust me her profession had nothing to do with it. They were just rotten human beings. Sounds like she lost a really good thing with you. Good luck.

    Politics Milei: "They think doing things poorly is normal"

    Actually I disagree with you @noname. He sounds angry because he is angry! He is angry at all the corruption by the Casta. It is good that he is angry. Many people are also angry. That is what some don't understand. Even if people need to pay more, they are angry at all the things that are being...

    Apple Pay at Coto?

    @Sunny I read this on X today and thought of your situation with ID at the supermarket. It seems shocking that AFIP would get a % extra salary based on how much they collect. It is no wonder all the locals want to pay with cash instead of card. But I don't see why this matters for foreign...

    Passport Bros posting on Tik Tok about moving to Buenos Aires, Argentina

    It seems like many of those Digital Nomad posts have stopped now that it is double the price of last year.

    Apple Pay at Coto?

    That isn't bad at all @Oatmeal if I assume there is no other provider in the area. I am surprised that a residential area doesn't have an option. Seems strange. What were residents doing before Starlink was an option? That can't make sense. Were they just using their cellphone? How good/fast...

    Anyone else started coming to this site because the other site's moderator(s) are very biased?

    Too funny @FuturoBA ! I read that post and was shaking my head. I think people take things to an extreme trying to rationalize their argument. At a certain point it becomes more about trying to be right and nothing to do with the reality of conditions on the ground in Buenos Aires. Photoshopping...

    Help! My tourist extension visa was denied today

    I would think even if the government wanted to fix this issue it will take a lot of time. But who knows. Milei is doing things a lot faster than I thought.

    Is the Expat party in Buenos Aires coming to an end?

    I am wondering the same thing. Most of my friends in the US are woefully prepared. Just depending on Social Security. Fortunately several of them own properties that have appreciated in value. I think their retirement plan is to sell it and then move to somewhere cheaper in the US or some of...
