Ah, the economic telenovela continues with its twists and turns, keeping us all on the edge of our seats! So, the master plan is a 2% monthly devaluation of the official dolar – a slow and steady dance with inflation. But wait, the plot thickens! The $800 rate, once a shining star, might lose...

I formally lived in Buenos Aires and I rented out an apartment to a friend for many years. The lease is finally coming off the lease and I don't think I will renew it as I want to come back to Buenos Aires. I recently reconnected with an old amiga and want to visit her as well as some others I...

Forgive my ignorance but I hear all the time everyone talking about the "blue dolar". I understand that it's an exchange rate that you will get to exchange $100 US bills. What are the best websites as I see many and some have different spreads. Which are the most accurate?
