Argentina’s Milei faces enormous hurdles to govern Lack of congressional majority and dire economic problems pose huge challenge for insurgent president-elect Javier Milei, pictured celebrating his victory with supporters on Sunday, will have to construct a system of alliances and pacts in...

If you're unable to acknowledge that your comments may be perceived as criticizing her intelligence, then we may need to agree to disagree on that. Considering your apparent opinion of Trump, wouldn't you appreciate the fact that Trump had Jared and Ivanka as trusted advisers? Would it have...

Certainly, it's valid to critique her actions and viewpoints, but why question her intelligence? She played a significant role in getting her brother elected as the president of Argentina, demonstrating intelligence and tact. Holding a specific opinion on an issue doesn't necessarily indicate a...

What a great post! Thanks for sharing. I am honestly shocked how safe it is in Buenos Aires. I feared the worst before my trip. I read about 150% annual inflation and I thought everyone would be mugging everyone but it is very safe. I stopped in San Francisco before my flight to EZE and...

Yes, looks gorgeous but $600,000 is a lot to spend in Buenos Aires. I think I would rather have some thing modern. Plus I don't like that area too much. I've been in town 3 weeks and I think I would only consider living in Recoleta or Palermo Hollywood or maybe a less touristy part of...

Thank you earlyretirement! I will check it out tonight! Are drink prices insane? I will send you a DM as I have a few questions!

I walked down Retiro today on Arroyo street and wow that blows away any of these streets. It was like straight out of Paris! That street is a MUST walk down street.

I am in a dumpy Airbnb. I could not find anything decent. All the properties I liked were already rented. I met the local owner of the apartment I'm staying in and she was nice. She just got into Airbnb rentals a few months ago. She told me she kept her apartment empty rather than renting it...

I went to go look at some properties today with a realtor and she said that there is a LOT of activity the past month. She said it is usually dead before an election. I read the great forum at https://buysellba.com/news-%2F-media and it is amazing how every single real estate article for the...

She seems like a really smart woman. I read that Milei barely spent any money at all on his campaign. It was comical watching his Tik Toks but they were very effective with both the young and old.

Trump seems like a blow hard to me. Still, he seems better than the alternative of Biden. I visited San Francisco before my flight to Buenos Aires. That city has gone downhill fast! I drove by in an Uber by the Golden Gate Bridge and I saw about 7 cars in a row with broken windows like...

I like Milei. He seems like a NO BS kind of President. I did some research and went to a Link to a blog you suggested to read. Fasincating! https://www.bowtiedmara.io/p/argentinas-century-long-decline It sounds like Massa and his party have ruined Argentina. Javier Milei sound like the...

Jeeze Louis! You sure do like to eat at fancy places! I've been here in Buenos Aires the past few weeks and I didn't know you could spend this much money on food. It DOES look delicious. But you are dropping more in one night then I think I do in almost a week on food. I'm going to dream...

Congrats on the upcoming marriage! You will LOVE Buenos Aires! The only bad thing is that you might not want to go home! And the city literally does NOT sleep. Go with your friends to Afrika Club. I saw a few bachelorettes there. https://maps.app.goo.gl/ngB9tQPmDN6R4jLU9

I worried for nothing! I've been here the past few weeks and have a new iPhone 15 Pro Max and NO issues at all. I use it daily on the streets and use Google Maps, taking photos and it's a NONE issue. I LOVE Buenos Aires. This is the best city I've ever been to. My problem is I'm running...

earlyretirement - What are some of your other favorite restaurants that won't break the bank!?

I agree that many cities in Canada are overrated. Besides a few neighborhoods of Toronto, much of it is kind of ghetto. Absolutely correct about poor leadership and politicians. I used to be proud to be Canadian but now it's a little embarrassing. I agree Vancouver is beautiful but it's too...

This Airbnb looks like the same one that the previous poster stayed at. The photos look incredible! It looks so comfortable and I like the idea of 24-7 security guards. I LOVE that they include 3D floor plans so you get a sense of the lay out.

Wow! What a great video review! Thanks for taking the time to make this video review and for posting it. I'm only in town until December 5 and would have loved to move over to it but I see it's booked for all of November. My Airbnb is a dump in comparison. I want to stay there. What is the...

I was surprised that the Chinatown was so big in Buenos Aires! I wouldn't think there would be many Asians but the Chinatown is crazy busy on the weekends. I was amazed with how many stores they had. The restaurants aren't too good there but it is a nice escape from steaks every day. Does...
