Depends, if at some time you decide to leave and can't because you can't sell your property or have to sell it at a loss, then your going to think renting would have been a much better option. My guess is that a very high percentage of expats buy in Argentina then after a couple of years decide...

There aren't really many deals to anywhere in South America. The reason is that there aren't that many flights or carriers compared to say North America to Europe as an example. Less competition here means the airlines can and do charge higher fares. Its probably one of the worse markets for...

I know Perry the real estate expert will be a real source of valuable info on this but as a house owner and with friends in the process of buying or selling, my own take would be: - It was initially unusual for me to see houses on our street for sale for nearly a year as houses tend to move...

Here another link with some more information. http://www.escapeartist.com/efam5/expat_tax_2.html

Lee more tax questions? The answer is that in most cases if you leave a particular state to live in Argentina you wouldn't be expected to continuing paying taxes in that state, California is an exception, they expect you to continue paying. The rationale is that you will eventually return so you...

Rule of thumb in Argentina for Italian food, stick to the upper rank eateries, the mid range and below establishments are usually awful. The best Italian restaurant in Argentina that I have found is Mario Fettuccine in Pilar.

Your right it wasn't very funny, remind me not to post when I've had a couple of drinks. I was trying to be satirical, trying to sound like some here that whatever the government is doing must be good (right?), and that if you object even better and harsher measures will follow. The whole can...

Sounds like you can't explain the increase if in fact it happens. I really don't care that much what other people think, but I think they were commenting on the high rate of inflation here more than anything else. Of course inflation according to the government doesn't really exist so what is...

Why do all the lefties here change the subject when something the government does is called into question? If a fine increase makes sense please explain why, don't justify some bad decision by the government here by some practice elsewhere(whether or not it makes sense).

No, its punishment for those evil gringos who bring their money to spend in Argentina, this will teach them a lesson, perhaps not to come at all.

Don't worry I'm sure the Argentine government version of events will be spun positively here, just listen to this and you can escape reality without any external aids.

Quit complaining this is just an example of social justice in action, don't you feel better already. If you don't like it you will be subject to revolutionary justice which is a bit more severe and I promise you won't like it.

Some clearly see the glass half full. Until they address the over-staffing and poor service rendered by the operation, all the money they are pouring into the airline will just insure that losses will continue indefinitely. It's extremely doubtful this government will take the actions necessary...

This happens all the time and of course the banks don't want to accept responsibility. Follow the advice given by David on how to spot the bills.

Probably true but at a cost of over $100k per employee per year perhaps they could have found a more efficient way of going about it than keeping this financial black hole in business.

True, what do they say about putting the fox in charge of the chicken-coop. I wonder if any of the money being spent actually ended up in the pockets of leading politicians and their families. It's really to bad the opposition is so weak and disorganized that we haven't heard more about this(or...

With the money being spent you would expect caviar and champagne for everybody on every flight. Just to show how out of whack they are AA operates 41 aircraft and has 10,000 employees. Alaska Airlines has about the same number of employees and operates 115 aircraft, a much larger operation. I...

Has anybody flow with AA recently. They are spending a lot of money on the airline and I wonder if anybody can comment on the level service, quality of service, etc., recently. Back in 2008 the government nationalized the airline, since they have loses of $540 million in 2009 and $420 million...

Here appears to be a good discussion of the issues specific to Florida. The best thing is to have a will. That way you are not leaving determination of what happens to somebody else. http://kellenbryantlaw.wordpress.com/2010/01/21/who-inherits-in-florida-if-there-is-no-will/

Don't know and not relevant to the current situation. If a court has ordered compensation paid then the government should enforce it for the workers. Blocking distribution of the newspaper is not how you enforce a court order. Its called rule of law.
