Are salaries this low for expats or locals???

I just saw this online. Is this a joke?? Are salaries really that low in Argentina? Isn't this about $500 dollars a month? That is crazy!

That is an extremely low salary. I am not sure if it is real but working 6 days a week for $500 USD a month is very low now. I think my maid cleaning apartments makes more than that now. I doubt they will get very many people interested in that offer.

Salaries are low here but they are heading up. My maid makes 5,000 pesos per hour. She told me she is making about $675 per month. I am not sure what skills is needed but this is a low salary.
 
Salaries have been moving up. Seems low but if someone is out of work they might take anything they can find until they get on their feet. But I am not sure if many expats would take that job. Maybe last year that would be a good salary but they have gone up.
