So far none of you have done a convincing job telling me what a real alternative is besides Buenos Aires or Argentina. So, you know, we've all heard that the grass is supposed to be greener on the other side, but let me tell you, these days, it's more like a sad shade of beige. Like, who even...

Alrighty, buckle up for the thrilling update on the Nampe Inflation Index – still standing strong at a cool $1450 or, if you fancy the decimal dance, about $1.45 per bottle. You know, the kind of index that would make the stock market green with envy. Now, here's a hot tip: if you're feeling...

Oh, yeah, BRICS, the powerhouse of... nothing? Like, seriously, who needs formal agreements or any kind of political or military alliance? And trade agreements? Pfft, who needs those? It's not like they make any difference, right? So, being part of BRICS is just a thrilling ride of absolute...

@Larry your posts are amongst the most exaggerated and the biggest doom and gloom poster on this forum. You keep mentioning how Argentina is very expensive now contrary to other members that have lived here for years. Even @Che Vos comments how your posts are wrong and it's not that expensive...

So, the central banks hitting the print button like it's a game of Whack-A-Mole? Yeah, that's basically a recipe for "inflation party, everyone's invited." I vividly remember prices from the ancient era of 2011 (my first rodeo here), but hey, let's not forget we're on a discount spree compared...

I find myself pondering the driving adventures of Argentines in the US, where the traffic laws are like sacred cash cows for local governments. Take Miami, for instance – you can casually turn right at red lights if the coast is clear, and heaven forbid if you don't hit the brakes for...

It's typical for out-going Presidents to hire all their family and friends and friends of friends with cushy or fake governmental jobs. Milei just said adios to all of these people. They thought they had a cushy job but NOPE...

Great summary! Thanks for taking the time to post it.

HUGE thanks to everyone for all your perspectives. It sounds like there are both Milei supporters and people that wanted Massa or his party to continue on. I for one appreciate hearing both sides of the perspective. The truth is NOBODY knows what will happen. No one. Anyone pretending to...

Hey there! If you're already familiar with using Western Union, giving Xoom a shot might not be a bad idea. It's pretty similar, and you can use their website. Even better, if you've got a PayPal account, you can do it there since Xoom is part of PayPal. Just log in, look for the "Send cash for...

For many expats, the party was already over in 2016, when the peso was stuck at 15 to $1 USD. In my opinion, as the peso strengthens gradually due to anticipated fiscal and monetary reforms, expatriates converting dollars may experience a decrease in purchasing power parity, creating an inverse...

You're way off base. It's not FREE. People like me are paying a sh*t load of taxes so people can get their "FREE". That's how it works. NOTHING is FREE.

That could have just as easily happened in Miami. For sure!
