    Can I bring a 30" brand new monitor in check-in luggage arriving at EZE without the aduana giving me problems? Or will they charge me some sort of impuesto?

    Belgrano Day School or Lincoln School?

    Lincoln for high school is the same price nearly as an elite US prep school that sends most of its graduates to top tier universities. I don't think Lincoln has that kind of pull and prestige.

    Transferring USD to ARS via Western Union - any difference between cash pick up direct to Argentinian bank account?

    Will I still get the Western Union cash rate (today 447)? Will transferring cash direct to a bank account trigger AFIP controls who will start asking questions about where the money is coming from and why?

    What is more “third world” - Buenos Aires or San Francisco

    SF really is Gotham City. It is really sad what the city has become and I detest all of the enablers. The SF Chronicle put out an article blaming Whole Foods for the closure of its new store, not all the criminals and government officials who enable mentally ill drug addicts to create chaos...

    Why aren't there more expats in Uruguay?

    I wouldn't call it "affordable" but I think prices for real estate in Argentina seem really inflated. Jose Ignacio is a luxe beach town yet in terms of real estate you seem to be able to get a lot more for your money.

    Why aren't there more expats in Uruguay?

    Land and houses seem a lot cheaper in Uruguay vs Argentina. I looked at some homes and deptos around José Ignacio and the little towns in between there and Punta del Este and was pleasantly surprised. However food is so expensive. Dinner for two at a mediocre restaurant is $150.

    How long am I allowed to stay in Uruguay with a DNI?

    I didn't buy a return ticket and they didn't ask about one. I just flashed my US passport and Argentinian DNI. Can I stay indefinitely with an Argentinian DNI?

    What is more “third world” - Buenos Aires or San Francisco

    Do you live in SF? I would not wear a Rolex or leave valuables in my car in a parking lot anymore. Public transport is always rolling the dice with mentally ill thugs. They don't enforce laws against shoplifting. A whole foods literally closed down because of the crime. Beautiful...
