    Buying Apartment Pre-sale

    I have purchased 2 units in the past 2 years this way. It is a great way to get a new project at a heavy discount to market. You do have to wait a couple of years for it to be completed and also buy from a reputable group. We flipped one of the units for 50% profit and we kept the other. Think...

    Books from Amazon?

    I would buy a new amazon kindle and then download whatever you want including newspapers, books, magazines etc and a ton of free content. It will also save you waiting times and shipping costs, use the net, best way to make things close.

    BA is (still) cheap...

    City, I own 5 apartments in BA and have bought recently. The average 1 bedroom is not 100k. That may be the price in recoleta, parts of Palermo and puerto madero but not the case overall. Also, you are looking at 500sq ft at 200 a foot. You can buy in presale for less than that, I have and it...

    BA is (still) cheap...

    Stan, It certainly is possible Argentina may default and the government has not learned, yet I do not think it will be anything as bad as 2001 and I also believe that with the vast natural resources etc, the next government after Cristina fails and is out will do things right. Even so, if...

    McCain Picks HORRIBLE VP

    oh and dudester, if it was not for the good old USA saving the French's ass twice, you would be speaking German. How about all of those great people that sacrificed their lives to save the good old pompous French. Such a great country, France is bankrupt for real, they have no money, they...

    McCain Picks HORRIBLE VP

    hey Lee, if you renounce and move your assets put of the USA you do not have to pay US taxes and you will no longer be a citizen. Renounce and you have one less excuse to whine. As for your family, well unless they decide to move, they are stuck but that should not affect you...

    I am with you Steve, way to go. Dudester had a nerve hit and the French connection explains a lot. I know a lot of French people and they bitch all the time. Every country has its issues and I also have travelled all over the world so to each his own. You are both (you and Lee) entitled to your...

    McCain Picks HORRIBLE VP

    Dudester, A couple of things. First on where we agree, Mccain made a bad choice. I have been a lifelong republican but frankly it is impossible to defend many of the mistakes of this administration as well as a lot of its stupidity, so the Palin mess is a mess. I agree Mccain has shown bad...

    iPhone

    Tom, you do not want to unlock the iphone via lee's link. You will not be able to use ap store or sync with new firware. It bricks out. Not worth it plus you will not be able to use visual voicemail etc. My friend unlocked his and it is about useless. Read what I wrote first.

    iPhone

    Tom, I have an iphone in the US and an unlocked razr for Buenos Aires with a local sim card from personal. The roaming charges either way whether ATT or Claro (Arg carrier) are outrageous and not worthwhile. I use the IPhone in the US and the unlocked prepaid sim in Argentina and it works great...

    Soulskier, this came out today. Palin's daughter is currently pregnant out of wedlock and will keep the baby and marry the father. They released this to rebut the rumors like the one you posted. Either way this is a real problem for Mccain. They say the campaign knew when they vetted but why...

    Lee, You must have a real terrible life if you are so resentful of the USA. I suggest you go to the embassy and renounce your citizenship. Put your money where your mouth is, go ahead and renounce and never go back.
