    Is the expat party coming to an end?

    Is there not a US politics thread you guys can go argue in? It's tiresome having to wade through your internal discourse in so many threads.

    Is the expat party coming to an end?

    The gap that exists at the moment. Hence "in the mean time". Well thats how I read it anyway.

    Economists warn electing Milei would spell devastation

    I'm not pretending that things are well at all, where on earth are you getting that from??? The whole article is projecting, including the contraction that you are using to qualify your nonsense. I've wasted enough time with you and will in future just ignore your uninformed opinions which you...

    Economists warn electing Milei would spell devastation

    I said resources not tools. Germany has Europes biggest economy and the worlds fourth. Economy collapsing is just mindless sensationalism. You then quote an article that you clearly haven't read, expecting 0.4% shrink this year followed by 1.3% growth and 1.5% growth in 2023 and 2024...

    Anyone else "crazy" enough to live in La Boca?

    Can you show me that Londons homicide rate is higher 4.7/100K? Because I can't find that information, and it is happening quite often on here where people make sweeping statements to back up their view and it's not true.

    Economists warn electing Milei would spell devastation

    Greece is the most indebted country in Europe, Germany is not on the brink of collapse and Argentina could only dream of having the resources to combat what Germany is facing currently. Thats just from my knowledge and I'm sure if I fact checked the rest of what you said I'd find most of it was...

    Argentina's New Boeing 757 Presidential Jet Arrives In Style

    What a weird statement to make, relating this back to war. Too many Malvinas weather reports today? Makes me laugh they have a new plane while the country is trying to keep its head above San Francisco's poverty line.

    What is more “third world” - Buenos Aires or San Francisco

    This is a percentage so it doesn't matter the total. To be honest this whole poverty pleading argument is quite repugnant.

    Where to exchange dollars for Euros?

    I don't get this, they exchange pounds for me in any denomination so why not euros???

    What is more “third world” - Buenos Aires or San Francisco

    Yeah its a bit repugnant people claiming San Francisco is more 3rd world than Buenos Aires.

    What is more “third world” - Buenos Aires or San Francisco

    Cost of living: Argentina sees prices almost doubling last year

    I went back to the UK and returned after 7/8 months and was surprised the price hike on almost everything. Agreed that public transport is not increasing at the rate of everything else, but this is a government subsidised enterprise I would have thought(the prices just don't add up to the...

    Argentina’s Elaborate Ploy to Lure Tourists Has Begun

    I'm sure the lions share of tourists are middle class professionals holidaying or travelling through. If you're spending 40k to just head down south then you are in the minority. Most people don't make their money by wasting it.
