    Money

    Until a few days ago, the BA Herald published both the official and the "blue" rates of exchange for the U.S. dollar and the Euro. They don't seem to be doing this any longer. Is there another source to get this information? The 2 big papers here don't seem to publish this.

    Banking In Buenos Aires

    Will you be working for a U.S. or International company? It seems quite odd for an Argentine comoany to pay an employee in U.S. dollars. Will you be paid in '$' or "US.$".
