Agreed. I could never just move to somewhere that is only cheap but I didn't like the people or city. Some people are always chasing the cheapest place. BA is still affordable compared to comparable nice major cities. At least to me anyway. Not the bargain it was before. Far from it but I...

Same. I was laughing the other day as I loaded up at pesos at 1,200 pesos a few months ago. That stash just ran out but had I known, I would have purchased several more thousands of dollars in pesos. I wish I knew which way it would go.

@Oatmeal it looks like the guy that created Nordelta is creating many gated communities all over Argentina. It sounds like everyone was waiting for someone like President Milei to starting investing in Argentina...

The passport bros only have themselves to blame for this. I have been going to Colombia for many years and the scene has changed there over the past few years. Loud, obnoxious Americans were going down and also filming and posting streams online. Something had to change there. Hopefully these...

Oh my. I can't believe you made such a scene for a small amount of money. When in a foreign country know the norms and customs of the locals. It's a good way to cause problems for yourself if you don't know them.

Yes I did this with my partner when we purchased many years ago. I would strongly recommend to have a last will and testament in Argentina for your interest in the property. Wills are not valid from the USA so you should think about this point as it is much easier to structure this ahead of...

Something is definitely changing. I have a DNI that I got many years ago via pensionista. I have permanent residency here but do not declare any income here. I have never had issues sending money to myself via WU but today it is asking me to verify the source of funds and will not work. I...

I also got one of these emails. Are any of you taking action on this email?
