What does this mean in layman's terms? How does it affect the typical person?
 
OK so that is better than before but when will they totally get rid of it?
That is the million dollar question. No one knows. The government is saying IMF funds will come first Q1 of 2025 but not for sure and not sure how this will play out. This is a welcome relief for many but a whole lot of locals never use their cards when they are outside of Argentina or they have foreign bank accounts.
 
This is progress although they need to totally eliminate it. We posted about this yesterday on X. Many will be enjoying their vacations in Brazil celebrating the savings.

With the blue dollar rate and country risk drastically going down I'm confident that it will happen soon.
 
30% discount on US$ CC purchases on plane tickets, trips abroad, streaming services, online shopping, etc.
Thank you!

I will be joining these women in Brazil. I wanted to go for NYE but prices are sky high. Is it always expensive around that time of year for Rio? I was surprised how expensive hotels are.
