Makes sense, since this report is from the World Economic Forum, which is essentially a neoliberal thinktank with close ties to the IMF. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Economic_Forum#Criticism This list is more a list of countries that are inconvenient to neoliberalism than anything else...

Prices on airbnb have gotten a lot better recently. When you consider the lack of bills and internet, you are usually barely paying more than you would otherwise. There's some properties on there right now for example, 2 bedroom apartments well located in caba for 600 to 800 usd a month, that's...

I'm sure some of the mansions in San Isidro are worth way more than these, these just seem like the most famous and publically known ones.

It's missing the most common one: has not one single good thing to say about the country, yet mysteriously stays anyway

Not sure how to even address a post that's so wrong. So I'm just going to address this quote, which is the most wrong part. Practically every second restaurant in Buenos Aires has Italian food. The idea that there's only '332 Italian restaurants' in Buenos Aires is patently ridiculous when you...

That's just not true at all, immigrant communities are the ones who couldn't afford maids. I know dozens of 3rd generation Italians in Argentina who have secret recipes passed down from their Italian abuelas that are amazing. Argentina is absolutely chock full of Italian restaurants that make...

It does work, I have done it plenty of times.

Lol this is Argentina, not Mexico or the USA. The President himself doesn't even have a serious security detail and walks through the street past normal people all the time. It would be highly suspect if his kids were picked up in an armoured car when he himself is not subject to such high security.

For 2. just put passport number.

OP, could you please post a picture of yourself and show us that you conform to the standards of beauty you're trying to impose on others? Thanks.

No, you can arrange the student visa after arriving on a tourist visa. If you take Spanish classes at a reputable university, they will help you with the visa.

It is very realistic. 1600 CAD is enough to live a very good quality upper-middle class lifestyle, presuming you are single. The hardest part would be the visa - I don't think you can qualify as a rentista on work income. You could always get a visa for studying something easy, like Spanish...

It's pretty shameful that people rush to defend even US healthcare, which turns the most basic of human needs into the pure pursuit of profit. You really couldn't display the reason you're so disliked the world over any better than your denial of even the most basic and well known facts about...

Visiting the US and seeing people dying of pain in the streets without access to basic healthcare while the rich partied a block away certainly didn't do it any favours for me.

I'd love to hear your other explanations, because it's not like anyone is really "jealous" of the US. There's dozens of countries that are better off than the US in practically every area relevant to standard of living, but it's not like Argentines hate Australians, or Japanese, or Koreans, or...
