Wow, that is pretty uncanny that you called this ahead of time. I read your post on Twitter. (I went back and read all your posts). It looks like @JMilei is following your playbook completely. I read where you said that Dollarization was impossible in the short term and thought of you when...

Is the owner's name of that site - Igor Sidorenkov ? What a wierdo. People have been complaining about him for many years. I did some digging and someone mentioned Las Vegas and did some checks.

This is horrible! I didn't know what people were referring to when they talked about the "old forum". Crazy! This guy sounds like a total nutjob. @Chris M. - Is this your post? - https://x.com/jpgninja/status/10535438460?s=20 Wow, this behavior goes back to 2010. Now I know why a new...

Paul Krugman is a highly respected American economist. I've been reading his columns for many years, and he's been consistently right. In fact, he was one of the few to predict the subprime mortgage crisis that ravaged world economies in 2007-2010.

The entire premise of this discussion thread seems largely implausible. I've been here for the past 5 weeks and I have been all over town and experienced NONE of this. The vast majority, approximately 99.9%, of locals neither distinguish nor can differentiate between an "expat" and any other...

You are seriously going to compare those dumpy cities to Buenos Aires? Those are mostly small towns with nothing to do. Very low population base. NO culture. They eat rats in many of those towns. Buenos Aires has far better food and variety of food. @Larry you are always dumping on...

Yes, it is very clean, modern and the skyscrapers are beautiful. Easily the safest part of the city as they have their own police force there and you have to go over the bridges to get out. I went to go eat Osaka over there one night on a date and it was nice. But at night it was kind of...

Ha! I love your user name! Looks like you two flaming hot cheetos can see who is spicer!

For me it is super easy on this property. I just left a cash deposit to take it off the market. And then @BuySellBA is getting my Tax ID # (CDI). I had to sign a power of attorney (POA) so that they could sign the title deed closing and also manage the property when I am not here. It was one...

Additionally, American Express (Amex) is also included. It's worth noting that the preferential rate isn't limited to North American cards; there are reports of European cards (including my non-US, non-EU MasterCard) working similarly. According to reports, Visa provides immediate reimbursement...

Hi Jon! I am here now but leaving soon, and I can verify that the MEP rate applies to a Canadian Visa. I only used it once for a small purchase as a test. My suggestion would be to try it out with a small transaction before committing to a larger purchase. Nonetheless, I would recommend...

@Spend Thrift you should contact @earlyretirement He has a lot of contacts. I did an initial consultation as I am buying an apartment here. He hooked me up with a very reputable banker that has an office in Recoleta. I just wire him and I get the funds. All for not too much money...

Yes, the reality is that the people renting it will be mostly tourists probably and @BuySellBA told me the split is probably 75% tourists and corporate booking and 25% expats or longer term stay. So the reality is people will just Uber and all of those areas are a 5-10 minute Uber ride to...

Wow to not take a subway or bus route is one thing but no way I can say I haven't taken a taxi or Uber. I'm in those a few times a day. 50 minutes for an expat isn't much but for a tourist that's a lot of time to waste probably if you only have a few days in Buenos Aires. Ubers are crazy...

Great Tik Tok! I agree about bubble in housing. Too frothy. I think it would be crazy not to sell now. I just listed my apartment in a pocket listing in Vancouver with my realtor friend and I already have 3 offers at over asking price. I am not in Canada to deal with it and have to rush home...

@Darksider415 that looks incredible!! I'm going to go there just based on your photo! This is AMAZING! I was just thinking to look up on line the best pizzas. You guys at @BuySellBA are always reading my mind!

OK! Sorry I didn't get the joke. I thought the poster was confused with millions and thousands. I get it now. Ha.

NO there are NOT 15 million americans in Buenos Aires. I think there is a mistake with your English. Maybe you meant 15 thousand NOT million. That is so amazing @Darksider415 that you are getting involved with the local community. And more important that you are a Christian and going to...

Yikes. I read the post from @earlyretirement about gay guys drugging one of his clients (multiple times) but I have never heard of a female drugging a guy in Buenos Aires. I will check it out!

I second this recommendation. Also, Saigon has 2 other locations that might be more convenient than going all the way out to San Telmo. I sent to this one in Palermo - https://maps.app.goo.gl/mF4ZYUa81S4ffpeSA You can see menus and the other location on their website...
