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?

Scary

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...

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.

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.

Yes, I noticed grocery stores and restaurants are as expensive or more expensive than the US and Western Europe.

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?

I've been to Avellaneda, San Justo and Lomas etc quite a few times for tinder dates. Never had an issue and it's obvious from looking at me im not Argentinian. Not saying they are beverly hills or I went to a villa but I've had lots of problems in LA and SF, in normal neighborhoods. People...

narrowed it down to these two schools. Thoughts?

Summary?

Buenos Aires: good public schools in middle class neighborhoods within el centro that teach high schoolers algebra, no giant homeless encampments or open air drug markets, no violent mentally ill thugs fighting you in public transport SF: has Whole Foods (except the one they just closed down...

Only problem I’ve ever had in Argentina is two teenagers grabbed my phone in a Starbucks in Palermo on Cabello and I pushed one and got my phone back. I was with my kid and no one tried to help. In Los Ángeles people will rob you for your Rolex too and they do it with guns and a beatdown. In...

I walk past this esquina literally every single day, often with multiple phones or a shoulder bag with a computer, many times at night or early morning when relatively empty. Really surprised this happened here, I felt invincible. I guess I’ll be more careful. Seems like they picked on the...

Any good cueva recommendations?
