:ROFLMAO: Welcome to Argentina. The normal cars dealing with this. Sounds similar to when I bought. The best is how they say it is no big deal to walk around with life's savings around a city where most people only make $700 bucks a month. It is great there are dependable companies that can...

And some are eating it right up and happy with the changes.

Speaking of Pilar they need to get rid of this 2% "environmental tax" they charge at supermarkets now. Total theft! This was started by the Peronist Mayor, Federico Archaval last year. Nothing Milei or Caputo can do about it either.

Wine in BA is much much much cheaper than restaurants in the USA, especially top tier steakhouses. Tipping epidemic is also nut in USA. I went to visit my sister in Los Angeles over Christmas and most of the restaurants already had a 6% extra fee on the check for healthcare for employees. WTF?

Brazil has MUCH fresher and better produce (fruits and vegetables) vs. Argentina. I don't know why they are so bad overall here. Rice is excellent in Brazil. You will find a much better food quality in Brazil vs. Argentina. I also think the steaks there are also delicious.

It depends where you go. Don Julio you can spend $300 to $400 for two people with appetizers and a nice bottle of wine.

Hopefully it does stimulate the economy. Many places have gone out of business or will soon.

Good health and peace and prosperity to everyone.

Macri seems to be pointing the obvious that breaking up with China is easier said than done. https://www.scmp.com/news/world/americas/article/3333767/ex-argentine-leader-warns-milei-cutting-china-ties-could-backfire-us-push-grows

It always looked bad for him and his sister but after someone like Cristina stealing so much does anyone in Argentina care? https://www.cryptopolitan.com/argentina-congress-javier-milei-libra-report/

Sad to see homeless #s increase. But Milei just increased disability payments so hopefully that helps. If he is going to win in 2027 he will have to probably increase assistance to those that need it the most.

Don't forget about free museum night this saturday. https://www-infobae-com.translate.goog/cultura/2025/11/04/noche-de-los-museos-2025-en-caba-cuando-es-horarios-y-como-funcionara-el-transporte-publico/?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-US

Blue and crypto dollar are paring its loss from 10% at its peak to about 5%. Remember there is still 30% annual inflation. That is massive all things considered.

Good summary in The Washington Post. https://archive.ph/5NDp6

Crazy to think the blue dollar went up even though Bessent said he would double the support. Everyone knows a devaluation is probably coming. That is all everyone is saying after the elections. No one knows for sure but I read some investment bank said if the election doesn't go good it could...

Love Istanbul. Last time I went it was very cheap but now I hear it has gotten much more expensive. Something tells me inflation will start going back up after the election. But so will the blue dollar so as long as the blue dollar goes up more that is a plus for me although bad for locals.
