    Dr. Ron Paul supporter??

    He wants to audit the Fed (which they will not allow), stop this insane peso-like 'printing' of the USD through quantitative easing and attach it to something of real value and of limited resources like gold??? Yeah, I'd vote for the 'nutbag'. :)

    Would you move a family to Argentina...?

    18,000 pesos a month may seem great now...but most likely be worthless by the time your two years are up....

    Would you move a family to Argentina...?

    lol, 6 months may be overstating it. as far as adventure goes, this is a place where you can have hundreds. some positive, and some negative. there are many safe areas, but like any other big city you just have to be careful. crime seems to be increasing as the "crisis" get worse, but for the...

    My oldest son got mugged for the 3rd time this year.

    wow. i'm so sorry to hear that. At least he is safe. criminals do what they want without fear...and every day they seem to be getting bolder. what used to be "a friend of a friend was robbed" is now "i was robbed" and the only solution to this seems to be "take it as part of the price of...

    Seeking advise on a "touchy topic"

    sounds like it has resolved itself. I think there is no use in any of us telling you what you should have done when you first found the employee stealing 50 pesos, but it sounds like you are good person and wanted to give him/her a second chance. that person abused your trust and would have...

    is this the right time to buy a flat in Argentina?

    my belief is that we are just at the beginning stages of the next crisis. most investors are unsure how long the current administrations actions will last(USD restrictions) and as such the property market is still in more of a holding pattern. I don't think now is the time to buy and deals are...

    can one buy gold in pesos legally?

    this is from a google search, but dated 2011 and already there was a run on gold, so I would imagine if you can buy gold in pesos, it would be a cheap investment still today...but i can't seem to find anything post 2012 restrictions...

    can one buy gold in pesos legally?

    With all the daily changes going on in Argentina, I'm unsure of the latest rules and regs. Is it possible to buy gold in pesos 'en blanco' now a days? I read somewhere each person was restricted to a per CUIL (or is it CUIT) holding of 5 kilos, (quite a large sum), but cant confirm any info...
