Agree! There are a lot of complainers these days. Especially the younger ones.

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...

Same. Now I have all sorts of people coming up complaining about Argentina.

I just read story after story. Makes you wonder if any good was actually being done? https://www.infobae.com/politica/2024/02/08/potenciar-trabajo-mas-de-9000-personas-cobraban-el-plan-social-y-eran-empleados-publicos/

Totally agree. It sounds like imports will open and I am looking forward to that as we should see an explosion of selection and hopefully prices also come down too.

As an animal lover, especially the ocean it was refreshing to read this. Global bans on commercial whaling have helped populations. https://indianexpress.com/article/world/whale-comeback-argentina-coast-9328204/

This is a great post. Very true. I don't think too many desirable places are very cheap these days. However it is very difficult to find a decent paying job in Argentina as well. Many Argentines left Buenos Aires and they are doing quite well in Spain. I know many that left and much happier...

Let us know what you think of San Telmo.

Leaving in August.

This looks about right from the percentage increase in USD. Prices have gone up over the past few years.

Yikes that was a scary read. Sounds like things could have ended up going very very bad. I can't imagine going to prison for a few years for defending yourself. And his poor daughter as it sounds like she was there to witness that. Jeeze!

At least Milei made up with the Pope. A happy ending.

Does anyone know if this blood test is still necessary to get married here in Buenos Aires?

I find the entire "fake tourist" thing kind of funny because what dictates a "fake tourist". I have a lot of friends who have been retired and traveling all around South America non-stop. They travel around Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil, Chile and have long-term leases in Argentina but they are...

I was willing to give Milei a chance but him teaming up with the kind of people he warned against is very odd indeed.

I have also had success with this website: https://landingpadba.com/activitytypes/soccer-tickets-and-tours/

WU rate today was 1,295 again. Sent to myself.

It will be interesting if other provinces also try to invent up their own currencies. https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/defying-milei-s-austerity-an-argentina-province-plans-its-own-currency-1.2024200

Wines, they're like the ageless wonders, patiently biding their time. Now, beef carcasses (or Media Reses, for the fancy term) at slaughterhouses, they're not as patient – they've got deadlines, they need to find new homes, and fast! It's like a race against time for those meaty fellas.

So, check this out – all the online studies are playing a guessing game, and they think the actual number of legit "noquis" is pretty tiny. We're talking anywhere from 200,000 to a million, and most of these stealthy folks are snagging government gigs that maybe pay them a whopping $500 USD a...
