The fact that the other side is encouraging Milei to pull out of the contest makes me think their maths are different to those of us who did a quick back-of-the-envelop calculation on Sunday night and concluded that Massa would win easily.

Frank's info is, surprisingly, verified on LN+ of all channels. Watch from 33.33 to 36.50. (Although I still don't get why, given he's been de facto president for nearly 18 months, he didn't use his power to go after them while they were the main threat and likely winners of the coming election.)

It's true. And it makes perfect sense that he wait until after he's politically defeated Macri rather than to do it while he was the major political opponent.

Milei refers to him as "El Sovietico".

I think enough Bullrich voters will stay home, or vote in blanco to make it impossible for Milei. They don't have to express their disgust with Massa by voting for Milei.

George W Bush invented the world wide web. As he pointed out, that is why it begins with W. Back on media ethics on this and other issues, I forgot to mention that in the course of my work a couple of weeks ago, I read a signed multi-million dollar multi-year funding agreement from a European...

I choose to believe based on experience of how charters and policies are applied in the real world. Here's an example: A well-known and highly prestigious international NGO (much in the news at present) operating in the medical field broke all kinds of rules in its charter (including having a...

There seems to be no way to know the extent to which human activity is increasing natural warming. Everyone qualified to opine on the subject (i.e., argue that the impact is significant or that it is not) can be argued to have a financial incentive to do so. So we can disregard recourse to the...

They are just box tickers. They are not resourced or smart enough or interested in doing the kind of checking you are imagining. That's why they don't even worry about the likelihood that the income is taxed and, therefore, not necessarily even available to you. Whatever low level of...

Trucho said it would sail through. Other people have had different experiences. My near three-year odyssey (admittedly complicated by the pandemic) with a real estate-based, lawyer-supported and perfectly documented Rentista application has been reported several times on this board.

Is that you Insaurralde?

I agree. Although perhaps they ought to be interested in whether or not the income you demonstrate is liable to (and will be reduced by) tax in another country, they don’t seem to notice, care, or ask. Separately, we seem to have fallen into the habit on this board of saying that the income...

Good link. Thanks. Interesting reviews. I bought 12-months coverage when leaving from Aeroparque in December, obtaining a discount for being a member of Medicus and choosing the level of coverage and premium I could live with/risk. It sure would be good to know if it actually works when needed.

I think better advice than to forget grammar is to know that there are two grammars: that of the spoken language and that of the written language. We can get away with things in the former that we can’t in the latter. We need things in the latter that we don’t need in the former. Be clear about...

I know. There is nothing wrong with the question. It's the answers that are about to come flooding your way that worry me.

Oh no. Brace for impact everyone...

That's usually how it's done. Sans bodyguards. Barcelona and Battersea it ain't.

It's partly cultural, I think. The cuisine is pretty ordinary here, in general. Home cooking isn't widely practised, certainly in Barrio Norte. The craze in many wealthier countries to install a fabulous kitchen and fill it with appliances (but never actually cook) has never caught on here (and...

To quote the great Basil Fawtly: "May I ask what you were expecting to see in a database of photos of Buenos Aires apartment kitchens? Sydney Opera House perhaps? The Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically..." Barcelona it ain't.

When you say "move to Buenos Aires", do you mean come here permanently or just for a few months?
