Interesting, and great tips. Thanks. I'm just wondering why you believe that the time to invest in CABA is now. Will a default have any negative affect on real estate values? Just as an investment, do you see any other real estate markets within Argentina that have a lot of growth potential?

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/02/18/argentina-on-the-brink-of-default-as-do-or-die-imf-talks-near-end.html "Speaking from Buenos Aires, Jimena Blanco, head of Latin America at Verisk Maplecroft, told CNBC via telephone that the risk consultancy had assigned a 77% probability that Argentina would...

How else is Glenn Beck going to hawk gold coins, iodine and dehydrated food?

According to his wikipedia page: "The majority of people diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome are misdiagnosed and are just assholes." Probably not the most credible source. ------------------- I think there is probably a lot of fat tailed uncertainty when it comes to the virus. Not that...

They do have many similarities. Their twitter rants, hatred of the press, rallies, economic nationalism, revel in conflict with political opponents, there is a conspiracy of the "deep state" against both of them in their minds, value loyalty above all else, non-pc when it comes to race, the list...

Why are adults so triggered by Greta? Are you one of those "climate truthers"?

It's a question of fat tailed risks. There is no harm in following the precautionary principle where the spread can increase in a nonlinear way. It can't be compared to auto accidents because they are thin tailed, never multiplicative. Not suggesting people should freak out, especially outside...

Caribbean Cool, you seem to be very easily triggered. Everything ok over there?

Right, but it's usually ETH, not BTC. Personally, I'd use BTC. If you wanted to eliminate the risk of volatility during the 45 minute transaction time then I guess DAI would be an option. Anyway my point is that it's a way to exchange dollars for pesos at higher rate than the official or the...

I know they don't literally buy dollars, but it's a way to get the CCL rate. 1. You take dollars and exchange it for DAI on a US exchange. 2. Transfer your DAI to Buenbit or another Argentine exchange. 3. Sell your DAI on Buenbit, and receive pesos at a rate near the CCL.

It's another way to convert dollars to pesos at the CCL rate rather than the official. Western Union seems to be the simpler solution at the moment but it's always good to have a few options at your disposal.

I think that applies to everyone who posts on this forum. :D

Who knows more about Argentine immigration law...you, me or a prestigious Argentine immigration lawyer? I'll put my trust in Dr. BC2.

Just quoting BC2. He is an expert on Argentine law, which I am not.

I did visa runs for over 5 years and know an american who did them for over 10 years!! Sometimes it isn't a case of stupidity but not easily qualifying for a visa. I'm relieved to have a DNI and no longer have a pit in my stomach every time I go through immigration, but the "crackdown" never...

I'm referring to the facist immigration measures that Macri implemented. BC2 has detailed them on the forum, including DNU 70/1017. https://www.infobae.com/politica/2020/01/23/el-gobierno-inicio-consultas-para-ver-si-cambia-el-decreto-de-macri-que-permite-expulsar-extranjeros-que-cometen-delitos/

Complete incompetence by Macri and his team.

NK paid the full debt owed to the IMF, and negotiated a "haircut" with bond holders of their sovereign debt. Kiciloff is showing why AF is no fan of his. I believe that AF is far more crafty than Kiciloff and will handle the debt situation more delicately.

Must be a PRO appointed judge. Here is to hoping that AF cleans up the justice system.
