Seems like a lot considering the typical salary is so low there. Are people paying their bills on time each month? I'd have to believe that people are slow paying or late on their HOA bills if they keep going up that quickly.

I couldn't believe the price of running shoes there. They were at least double the price back here. Hopefully getting rid of some of these taxes will help cut down the price on things there

Are Brazilians easily able to get Portuguese citizenship or I assume one of her parents were from there? A few of my friends got a Golden Visa from Portugal a few years ago but I heard they got rid of that program. That would be a fabulous passport to have!

I just watched the entire Part 1. Very interesting rise up. It's a good lesson how quickly someone can rise up in politics if people are fed up with the status quo. I wish we could get someone like this in the USA.

Thank you @FuturoBA

Very true. Everyone in Latin America thinks it is so easy in the USA and that everyone is making tons of $$$$. Many of my friends are driving around in luxury cars, living in nice places but when you do a deeper dive, they have $2,000 monthly car payments over 7 years, they are renting and...

Good to hear that food prices are stabilizing. Honestly I didn't think food was a good value on many things. I did visit some places that were affordable but plenty of places where food was not cheap. Food selection at the supermarket was pathetic. Prices for things like toilet paper was...

If someone has this dubbed in English it would be great.

Looks like the protests are picking back up again. I heard it used to be very bad before. I know this government is trying to prevent them. Looks like some of the protestors are even using pepper spray which I thought was illegal there?

Even some success stories sound like they have taken many years. I just visited the website and I would have thought the business went out of business in the late 90's if I was judging based on the website. :ROFLMAO: https://www.rubilarcitizenship.com/ But it says that 28 cases were won in...

No reason why Bolivians should expect free medical care in Argentina. Seems crazy they would even expect this.

From what I read before, when Argentina was very expensive and the currency was equal (1 dollar = 1 peso) there was almost no tourism at all in Argentina. It was too expensive.

I watched this interesting documentary on YT about Argentina. Worth a watch.

Agree with you @StatusNomadicus that too many people take way too many medications. Especially Americans. It seems like doctors are incentivized to just keep writing more and more prescriptions. It is nuts! What are restaurant prices like in Mendoza? I am seeing some menus online for places...

Costs have been going up all over. It just sounds like things down there have been subsidized for a long time. So a big time increase is causing everyone to worry but all in all people seem to be taking it in stride.

Long term Bitcoin should do very well but of course if there is a major conflict or war it will sink like a rock. Some shadowy forces robbing some people that post that they have crypto. Read this yesterday and some scary sh*t.

But what happens in 2025 when Argentina has to default on all their repayments? Where will the cash come from to pay back all the obligations? Doesn't look like the IMF is going to give more. Net negative reserves so what happens to the exchange rate then?

The exchange rate seems like it's heavily controlled. I thought Libertarians were against socialistic controls of manipulating the markets but looks like they are doing the same thing to control the exchange rate. Seems like no one can answer what would happen if they stopped doing that and let...

That's what I don't get. Even their Economic Minister is saying that in real terms accounting for inflation their payments have gone up.

Thanks. I had the same question. This website isn't that great and not the most intuitive. I saw that they offered 360 but couldn't figure out where it was. Thanks @FuturoBA
