Got some funds today from WU. Rate was 1,205.16 to $1 USD.

This is a known ongoing issue for some time now. If you notice, most of the oldtimers have stopped posting. A shame too as there are some really smart people on that forum. But the amount of fighting and drivel and then having to deal with edited/deleted posts is too strange to deal with...

I went to La Pescadorita, and seriously, it was a total rip-off. Overpriced and the food? Disgusting. Not even a hint of flavor. I think the fish they all bring in is frozen and then defrosted. Was disgusting if you like really fresh stuff. If you're craving legit seafood, skip the fancy...

Oh, definitely me! I'm like the colectivo's biggest fan, strolling around like I'm on a mission, whipping up masterpieces in my kitchen, and proudly ruling my own kingdom. Even if they jacked up taxes and utilities to, like, four times the current rates, it'd still be a steal compared to what...

Another data point. I have healthcare insurance via Sancor Salud, 2 adults, and I'm 39 and my wife is 38. There was a 41.85% increase in January, 29.50% in February. Currently paying $80/month, going to $115/month in January, will be $157.82 in February. Still dirt cheap so I can't complain...

So, here's the deal – the whole Uruguayization example as a country thingy. Salaries are low, prices are through the roof, and the dollar is just not keeping up. The economic Minister, Caputo spilled the beans, saying they're going for a 2% monthly crawl in the exchange rate. That means, by...

The most important thing is to be able to prove that the money is clean, like withdrawal receipts from your bank. That's because even if it's less than $10K, and even though technically you don't have to declare that amount, a law enforcement officer can still seize your cash if they ONLY...

People here seem to love McDonalds even though it's garbage for some reason. It's always crowded. Go to the Recoleta Village location and it's always swamped. I think with all the misery people like to imagine they are in another country. It doesn't make sense the prices for how expensive...
