It's a mistake to look down upon or underestimate someone because of their previous history, especially when that person is now in a position to have significant impact in your life and/or the lives of people you care about. Their history that you down down upon only makes their accomplishments...

@Larry, you're joking, right? The article you linked explained very well why Milei should be there. Perhaps more importantly, what a great opportunity it is for Milei and Argentina to be able to have informal talks with Trump like that! Other world leaders wish they have such an opportunity.

@Betsy Ross, I would suggest that you compare the services inclusive of any discounts at the time you want to make the transfer. Waiting for a discount or promotion might not be practical since the exchange rate can fluctuate quite a bit while you're waiting. @Uncle Wong, the amount you can...

Keep in mind that the cost of transferring money using services like MoneyGram and WesternUnion is the sum of the "Fee" and the discount in the Exchange Rate given to you compared to Dollar CCL for example. While WesternUnion might give you a better exchange rate, they charge a higher fee...

Some photos I took in Mendoza a few weeks ago...

It's common to see little kids, probably as young as 3 or 4 years old riding on a motorcycle (in the front) with their Moms, both without helmets. The most shocking instance I saw a few weeks ago was a young girl, maybe around 6 or 7 years old, riding in the back of the motorcycle while she was...

What does it say about someone who feels the need to wear a very expensive watch or jewelry, especially outside of some special event?

Before 2024, before Milei became president, how did the average Argentinian compare to other countries in terms of?: 1. Beef consumption 2. Alcohol consumption 3. Dining out / takeout food In February 2025, how does the average Argentinian compare to other countries in terms of?: 1. Beef...

Why are people saying he needs a therapist? First of all, he didn't say he was in that specific situation. He was asking if "you" were in that situation. If anything, I would interpret his question as asking how someone would spend $100K without judgement about how that money could be used...

I would have converted to be a vegetarian before reaching that point.

This photo shows you where Milei stands literally and figuratively with Musk and the Republican Party that won the latest election in the USA... (Screenshot taken from coverage of the 2025 Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC))

Has everyone forgotten that the US has a trade surplus with Argentina?! Has everyone forgotten that Trump values loyalty more than anything? Has everyone forgotten that Musk also likes Milei? Musk and Trump are not going to screw Milei over, but mainly because it will be in Musk and Trump's...

I'm 'going to call bull' on the claim that there's an actual shortage and therefore they have to increase prices. It's like OPEC saying oil prices need to go up because there's an oil supply shortage after putting less oil on the market. I doubt there's a truly reliable source of actual number...

That's the problem with unions nowadays. They forget who the real owner of a company is. Yes, fight for better wages, more benefits and better working conditions, but owners of companies take a lot of financial risks and also demands a certain level of profitability. Employees will always...

Seems like it's very contagious as evident by all the complaining by the expats who have been exposured to them here. :)

While I understand the typical meaning and imagery that statement is supposed to represent, it reminded me of the phrase 'like throwing a hotdog into a hallway' instead. Men are also the reason why 'most women do most things.' Perhaps more importantly, some would argue that men are also the...

She already took a load from you .., and then she asked you for your number? That Lavanderia sounds like quite exciting!

Messi deserves praise for not attending the Presidential Medal of Honor ceremony because it seems to me like he clearly recognized that it was a political stunt to award him the medal this early in his association with the USA. He just only signed with Inter Miami in July 2023, just 17 months...

Criminal Indifference The Ending Of Seinfeld Explained: ***** Spoiler Alert!!! *****

@Avocado, the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. Perhaps you're the lucky one because you don't have to go through any of that process because you're already in the 'good country' that others want to come to. How many people really want to move to another country, away...
