My typo resulted in a $1000/month for electronics! Fixed and now it's a more reasonable 3.3k USD / 52k ARS per month. Of course, after taxes it's still appears hopeless.

Well, 2% on assets per year is a complete killer. My figure of 40k/year comes from a reasonable albeit conservative 2% ROI on a 2M portfolio (including real estate, stocks, metals, etc.). In my opinion, people have to be lucky to get 4% a year. On top of that, they will charge a tax on the...

EDIT in response to your EDIT. I saw many nice properties for about 200,000 USD using the REMAX website which I actually got from one of your threads on rural living (great thread by the way). Some are in Barrios Cerrados. I suppose there is a monthly fee for living in one of those. Also...

Thanks, please see my updated budget in ARS and after integrating your feedback. I would expect the childcare workers to do the cleaning as well. One main full-time, live-in and above all trustworthy - 20k/month. Full-time helper - 8k/month. Part-time replacement for illnesses, holidays, etc. -...

How much do they pay and what is so bad about the public schools?

Haven't really. I was in Argentina awhile back and liked it. Is Chile comparable? Is it more or less expensive? How does residency and potential citizenship compare?

Hi, certainly not downtown BA. I was thinking within driving distance of BA but well out, say maybe 1 hour. I heard Pilar is nice. Otherwise, some place like San Luis as Bajo recommended. Where do you live? Can you view my updated budget? It's a lot more detailed and takes into accounts some of...

I did read the first thread and that's where I got the notion that Argentina taxes on passive foreign income. Very bad news because I just about had my heart set on Argentina but this will be severely limiting. Thanks for the second link.

Double post.

Is there a legal problem? Could you elaborate on some of the differences? Much appreciated. A Paraguayan once told me that he considers Brasileros similar to Americans and Argentinos similar to Europeans. I heard Paraguay has more Native American roots, i.e. Guarani. That seems rather interesting.

Can you explain the logistics? Does he get your name and track you down? How would he do that? Or does he somehow manage to have himself hired as your taxi driver?

What are the USD/ARS ATM limits?

Isn't it a hassle and expensive to manage a pileta?

Which cities lie in "Northern Patagonia?"

Thank you. Did you buy straight from Tiscornia or from an individual? Would you be able to explain the process?

How much do you plan to bring in all? What about selling Bitcoin?

I don't believe they need any formal education at all. School is only social.

Thanks for the input. What do you think a reasonable monthly amount would be? I am assuming no housing costs as I would buy a place. I have 3 children so it would be for 4 people. USD | Item - 750 Food (no restaurants) 500 Transportation (I would get a new car but not upgrade it for 10 years...

Well, I have strong views on education. I send them to public school. At least that expense should be virtually nothing. 1k/month per nanny? Thanks, I hadn't even thought of legal implications but I suppose they should be made legal guardians while I was out of the country. Certainly, it...

Well, they don't need to be bilingual. I'm fluent in Spanish. How much would their salaries be? I would need them trustworthy and reliable enough to leave them alone for a couple months. How difficult would this be to execute? I couldn't afford Barcelona. My budget is probably only about 40k...
