I was not in Argentina in the 70's, but I am close with an Argentine who knew a school friend who was picked up off the streets of Cordoba and disappeared. The Liar in Chief wants to rule by decree, untethered by a constitution, courts, congress, or precedent. The fact averse, lo info MAGA...

Regarding the US ag producers, there are consequences of ignorance. When you produce a commodity like soy, which many nations can ship to Asia competitively, the tariffs of the impulsive, intellectually feeble Pres, destroy trading relationships. While the former buyers won't forget, Trump will...

I had to fetch it in Avellaneda 7 months after I paid for the property. The whole deal was expensive, and full of anguish.

IMHO very pricey admission.

I will attend.

Family members stayed at Hotel Club Frances in Oct 2023. It is located on Rodriguez Pena between Av. Alvear and Quintana. The neighborhood is upscale, the service/staff were outstanding. The restaurant serves excellent food.

Chris Moss was too lazy or had no comprehension of how air pollution is measured, the constituents (particulates, NOX. sulfurous oxides). Any useful description of pollution is quantified, against the backdrop of established standards that correlate concentrations to health risk. I just...

Have you done a very thorough financial assessment of working in BA? I moved to BA from Cincinnati after I retired, and was not compelled to earn a living. I don't know what your age is, but getting 50 years of SSA income history, and decades of contributions to 401k/IRA made life in BA...

The sellers wanted an ARG bank to ARG bank transfer, not the receipt of a US bank wire. My own experience is that foreign source funds into ARG banks involves delay and forms.

I bought and apartment in May this year. I have accounts at BNA, pesos and USD. First I wired from the US bank account the USD to the BNA USD account. It takes up to two weeks to have BNA credit the inbound wire, and a handful of forms to complete and return to BNA that link to getting the...
