I've been using MoneyGram for a long time now and I've had very few problems. The rate is almost always better than Western Union (after fees, for transfers from the US, at least), and sometimes it's substantially better. Transfers to Banco Nación take a little over an hour, also a plus (for...

I tried a transfer last Friday when I read here that some people were having problems. Received the money in about an hour, as usual. MG -> BNA

I really disagree with all of this, but I don't want to take the time to write a long rebuttal. I'll just say this: In 2001, every person in the country that had money in the banks lost three quarters of their money in one day. My wife was one of those people. Just because people use the...

1 million peso note from the early 80's Half million australes note from the early 90's The number of zeros on today's bills are a constant topic of political discussion, so I suppose you can imagine what the conversation would be around a new one million peso note (or even half a million).

The government put a limit last year for this type of purchase of US$1000. That also includes all the other costs (shipping, fees from the company for door to door). I'm not sure if it includes the large taxes. But this will limit what you can buy (the limit used to be US$3000). The easiest...

That's strange. I just checked mine, and it's 24.99 (to bank) and 32.99 (cash pickup) Three different people, three different prices.

And what does that have to do with a conversation about income taxes?

Hotspot is extremely secure, and speed of hotspot connection is 36 megabits down, 20 up, as measured just now in my apartment. For emergency use, I hardly think it's necessary to go out and buy a phone-to-PC USB cable, but if you want to kill a fly with a sledgehammer, be my guest.

Rich One, why don't you use your cellphone as a hotspot for things that aren't too data intensive while your regular internet service is out? Before I got my current service, I used to lose my connection frequently for short periods of time, and if I needed internet in those times, I'd just set...

Isn't that what this is? He's in Argentina earning money which he is taxed on. The foreign earned income exclusion is intended to prevent that income from being double taxed. What am I missing?

You wouldn't pay US income taxes on the first US$120,000 in 2023.

Sorry, I was being facetious.

This is still a problem for me, after all these years. I've been able to do face-to-face conversations and problem solving for a long time now, but I just can't do those things on the phone. Sorry you're still having problems.

I've noticed that you always have the answer to every question here. Occasionally it's even the correct one. Feel free to continue being condescending. You really don't bother me in the least. I only responded here so people don't take your guesses as real answers to the problem.

Old hardware makes a difference. And network cards aren't the only bottleneck. Also myriad possible network software settings can cause problems. It's all right if you don't believe me. It doesn't make it less of a fact. It used to be my job to solve problems like this. If you want to...

So you think that a 100 megabit card in your pc can magically transfer data at 300 megabits because of your ISP connection (just as a simple example)? Wow, that's amazing! Care to explain why Rich One isn't getting his 300 Mbps? I can't wait to hear the explanation.

Or, if you're happy with your internet speed, instead of buying a new network card, you can save some money by reducing the speed of your internet plan (although there isn't much difference in cost). A lot of cellphones and tablets and cheaper/older laptops/desktops can't come close to 300Mbps...

Yes, and any corner in San Telmo.
