How do you go about doing something like this?

I know that sounds strange but a friend just sent me this photo and asked if I went to the "Glory Hole" in Palermo. I laughed. I guess this is a normal cafe. Has anyone been? How was it? I assume $6 coffees? 😜

Yep I read this too that makes it sounds like he wants to leave. https://batimes.com.ar/news/economy/milei-complains-mercosur-bloc-has-only-enriched-brazilian-industrialists.phtml

I think BA is a cool city. I'm not sure about living there permanently. Things seem too chaotic. No trust society, unpredictable, high inflation. Fun to visit but considering the higher prices I would think there are better places to live. I found it totally safe. But probably spots in Europe...

It seems like some of Milei's surroundings are starting to implode. It will be interesting to see how the elections turn out. A long way until October. I wonder if Milei's approval ratings will hold up...

Price gouging plain and simple. How can prices jump up so much? BS excuses. I thought inflation was going down? It doesn't make sense to me that some things made in Argentina can be so expensive compared to other places. I'm not talking about things that are imported. Talking about stuff from...

It is funny when you find coffee for $3 bucks and consider it a win. I went to a lot of cafes in Palermo. I didn't shop around and just went where it was convenient and a bunch of coffee the same price as I would find in the U.S. Wow these are great prices. I haven't been to Paris in a few...

Dude nothing is going to happen to Milei. Look at Trump promoting all of these shitcoins. He left out Bitcoin. We are at peak WTF moment now. All these guys are crooked. These guys will keep it going. Too much money to make rug pulling people.

It's crazy how Trump and Milei cheated their own supporters. Nuts. They were dumb to fall for the dump and pump but crazy how Milei pumps it up and then blames his followers and said it's like going to the casino.

The New York Times had another story about Milei and his Libra con. https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/28/world/americas/argentina-crypto-scandal-president.html?unlocked_article_code=1.0U4.6w7D.o2g0TGAt8uwY&smid=url-share

Here go the payments. There was talk that Milei's sister asked for $4 to $5 million for the post.

Jeeze. No wonder everyone is dodging taxes and underground. I had no idea they charged this on service fees. I assume people would also prefer not to issue these invoices because they have to pay income tax on it too. Doubt they will see people agreeing to pay them if they have the option to...

This guy that was working with Milei has a very shady family. Crazy con artists. Good article in Bloomberg about them. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-02-26/counterfeiting-and-cult-murder-family-behind-milei-memecoin-has-checkered-past Archived version

In light of all the Milei scandal I went to see what some of this crypto is at. Still think anything other than Bitcoin is going to lose over time.

I saw this video. Anyone in the crypto space knows how bad this is. There was 100% fraud and you even have that moron admitting it. He was with Milei and his sister a few times. Read this article. There was definitely a pay off. Argentina is a banana republic and it will always be one...

Elon returns the favor and gives Milei a chainsaw. Elon seems like a powerful friend to have. https://batimes.com.ar/news/world/from-villa-urquiza-to-washington-the-tale-behind-mileis-chainsaw-gift-for-elon-musk.phtml

Terrible to think of anyone that thinks there is no reason to live. I would advise that person to find a good therapist. BA seems like it is full of them.

This was my experience renting a few Airbnbs in BA. It is fair to say most owners in BA on Airbnb spend very little furnishing their place. I had to leave the first Airbnb I had because the bed was too uncomfortable. The place didn't even have a coffee maker either. I did find a nice Airbnb...

Great points @TonyTigre. Hell Trump and Musk are using Milei's game book in the USA. Trump also had a memecoin rug pull too. Not the same thing as Milei but still.

What downsides or frustrations have you dealt with? Do you think the food is overrated there? That was one of the things I thought would be much better. Everyone raved about having the best steaks in the world and I thought they were just meh at most places. I had to really hunt and search...
