I've been reading the past few days as this thread has progressed. What I don't think that OP understands is that 30 to 40% inflation a year will outstrip whatever he earns on his 2 million dollar investment, period. With the current suppression of the value of the dollar to the peso here, you...

Dr Marcelo Zas, Araoz 2755, CABA $2000 pesos for a consult

Stevied... I have relatives here and have been visiting for nearly 35 years. I moved here permanently in the fall of 2014. The peso to dollar was 16 then and is 16 now nearly two-and-a-half years later. Prices in pesos have more than doubled since then so it really makes no difference if you...

The reason for all of this is the crackdown on terrorism. Terrorists use the same scheme of a po box that actually appears to be a street address. That's why they no longer accept the address you were using as "residential."

I live in CABA, Recoleta. I need a recommendation for an excellent retina MD. I've had several eye surgeries over the years and I'm concerned about another retinal tear. Hope somebody has some suggestions. Thank you!

Thanks! Have you been to any of them? I have googled those and others and wondering if other than reviews people on the blog have been to any.

Anyone aware of or have experience with any rock climbing gyms in Capital?

It's possible that there's only a certain percentage of surcharge allowed by law on utilities here

Anyone know if they are generally open on holidays such as tomorrow and Friday? Mine is usually open on Saturday but I've never gone there on national holidays.

I am a medical professional and the in-office strep tests are not reliable. Therefore if they test positive doctors prescribe amoxicillin and if they test negative they don't and 50% of the time people come back with severe strep that should have been treated in the first place. For those who...

Go to any pharmacy and ask for Amoxicilina 500 milligrams and get enough for 7 days and take it 3 times a day, every eight hours. You don't need a prescription and this is the number one indicated medication for strep throat. If you are allergic to penicillin, ask for cephalosporina. The in...

The staunch Republicans out there voted a straight Republican ticket. They were all tired of the Democrats in office. It really had nothing to do with who the candidate was. Unfortunately, as in most U.S. presidential elections, you don't get very good quality candidates.

I live in Recoleta near Pueyrredon and Las Heras. I have mosquitoes year round! Maybe a few less when the weather gets cold and slows them down but because of all the rain they have been prolific this year. I have mosquito bites routinely. There are always one or two sneaking into my place...

Thank you! We will see what can be done.

I am in need of a referral to a good, experienced Healthcare attorney here. My mother-in-law has been ill for several months and every time she is scheduled for her surgery and shows up at the hospital they either put her up for a few days and then tell her there are no beds or send her home at...

I think everyone uses whoever is closest to them. Someone on this forum recommended a place for me but it's not close to you. But I have used it ever since and it's been a great rate and experience. The place I use also will come to you and I know others will as well. Banks give the official...

In the United States the bylaws, regulations, etc dictate whether or not a Condominium Association, Co-op, etc can prohibit owners from renting their units. I'm going to guess it is the same here. Also as in the US, those rules can be changed by a dictated percentage of owners, members of The...

The bottom line reason for the regulations pertaining to bringing money into banks here is the attempt to capture tax dollars due Argentina. Tax evasion has been rampant forever here.

Anyone who thinks that inflation is at 42% this year has another think coming. I'm estimating it is somewhere between 60 to 75% this year. since mid 2014 I have been tracking prices on everything I come across including items I purchased or not, rent, utilities, etc. There is no way inflation...
