The middle class dont have the billions. The rich do. And the rich dont need to liquidate it. They are rich. Economic history tends to show that savings INCREASE during a recession, not get destroyed. The majority of people, in pretty much every country, live paycheck to paycheck. Only the...

do you have a escribano? you should. we have done similar transactions, the way it works is your escribano sets up closing at her bank. They have rooms for this. You have your US bank wire the money to her bank, and, during the closing, they bring in the money once the escribano is satisfied all...

the imaginary Milei way to get dollars is to mutter the right libertarian slogans, and "investors" like Musk will just give him the dollars. en realidad, we need to export products and sell them on the world market for dollars. but the Milei scattershot approach is not helping any businesses...

I would also suggest you go to pretty much any show here- https://caff.ar/ the actual banda La Fernandez Fierro would be my first suggestion, but they basically dont book bad acts. Its a small, funky, very argentine place to see very authentic argentine music.

the first rule of Argentina- eat local. which means you are only here for a bit, seek what is here, rather than seek the familiar.That said, you should see who is playing at Club Be-Bop, Cafe Berlin, Thelonius, and see if you cant catch a concert of guitarist Fernando Kabusacki, who plays in...

pretty much every car sold in the USA since 2015 or so have had backup cameras, and they have been mandatory since 2018- 6 years. The average lifespan of a car in the US these days is 150,000 miles. Which means by far a majority of the cars on the road in the USA have em. And turnover on rental...

Rental car usuage in Argentina, for a population of about 40 million people, is about 5 million rentals per year. In the USA, with about 330 million people, is over 300 million rentals per year. thats according to what I can find online at Statista. in both cases, some of those renters...

We have used this company multiple times for over ten years. They deliver the car to your location, and we have always gotten newish, trouble free cars from them. Small, responsive and nice. There is not a very big market for car rentals in Argentina so most prices are similar and higher than...

The new fiat cronos is made with a CVT automatic tranny, and since its made in Argentina and inexpensive many rental places may have one. We rented one last year, not a bad little 4 door. But other than that, I have never seen automatics for rent from any place we have rented from, in either...

Go down and talk to these guys at galeria larreta. They are converting most of the galeria into an artspace https://www.lanacion.com.ar/cultura/central-affair-una-galeria-de-galerias-con-artistas-del-pais-en-buenos-aires-nid27082024/

I started with this book, back in 2007. You dont have to drink alcohol, just visit a few, sit,sip, snack, and then walk around the area. https://www.scribd.com/document/710609066/Libro-Bares-Notables-2023-0

Yes. This is what our immigration lawyers told us this week for the October tranche. But its not exactly the “ income requirement”. Its the minimum you must transfer. They dont care what your overseas income may be, as long as you transfer the minimum every month and you can prove, through, say...

Also, Milei had no problem parading around the UN, or asking it for money. What he refused to sign was a non-binding agreement that climate change exists, and that everybody should be working to slow it down. NO blue helmeted UN soldiers would descend on Argentina if he didnt do everything...

Really gives me a lot of hope for the future to see that Milei has joined Russia, North Korea,Iran and Syria in standing on the principles of freedom and private property...

Subsidies were the cash payments fro the government to Edenor and Edesur. Both utilities say that the rate increase is less than what the government used to pay them, so they currently have LESS money for infrastructure improvements. Milei has ended those subsidies. The government of CABA used...

globally we are seeing an international crackdown on pirate streaming sites. The biggest ones, in Vietnam, were all shut down in the last 3 months, due to euro and US pressure on the Vietnamese government. Big tv and movie industry money is behind this.

The cuevas I go to are storefronts, not dudes standing in the street. And the three main ones I use have all been there, operating in the same place, for ten years or more. Ask around your barrio, find the local storefronts, usually they have a privacy booth in front of the cashier, and they...

Its interesting to me how well the DNI works as a universal ID, as opposed to the US patchwork of drivers license, SS number, birth certificate, and so on. Anybody can look up anybody's DNI online. Somehow Identity theft isnt a huge problem because of that.

My State (washington) has allowed me to vote online from Argentina for years now. We also have one of the lowest numbers of questionable votes in the nation, and have been all vote by mail for over a decade.

Pretty much every day in Argentina, a woman is killed by her spouse or partner or ex. This is a real safety issue. The actual amount of overweight retired expats who are seduced by beautiful women to steal their kitchen appliances and cheap android phones is tiny. Buenos Aires is still a very...
