To resume it, I think I wrote way to much about Chile, once I started with it i forgot myself, the point was that Chilean economy is mostly a consequence of a commodity based economy helped by the rise in their commodity price and a relative small population that can import the goods they...

I'm not sure if you understood me then, I never said that Argentineans are smarter than any other nation, I said that in general intelligence is something you find in every country in the same quantity, if you go to my text that was my observation. Is not intelligence that define a country’s...

uhm i don't know, i kind of feel safer and i havent hear of no one on my circle that has suffer any robbery in quite a long long time, but of course that is only my situation, an crime tend to move from area to area, the more they control an area the more the thief move to another area to rob to...

Not really, is quite easy to go to germany and become successful there as an Argentinean or as anyone actually if you have a proper degree, not much of a trick to perform good in a steady economy, you just go every day to work and you don’t need to do much else, and that is very easy to do when...

Smartness is not related to having a good mark in a test, is more how quick you are to do so, with is quite dificult to measure, but mostly you can grasp a notion of it when you talk to someone that has this quality. My definition of intelligence would be more like your processing speed and...

In general germans don't look at all in what they spend, neither they worry to much about their savings, they trust to much on the state for providing when they get old, when you talk to them about the posibility of the state failing on this they just cannot make in their head this scenario...

Germans have freedom to study what they want to study, the government dont have much to say in that. And if the trade policies of trump goes into effect the impact for germany will be huge, even the impact of england quitting the european eunion will have a big impact in germany.

By the way on a side note about german economy: they are in a good economy now, but that doesn’t mean that it will be a good economy in the future, there are less and less engineers in the faculties, and less and less people studying economy related things or hard degrees, for now they replace...

A couple of things that are wrong in your observation, first of all is not related to genes that is just a stupid comment to make as if the education will come already codified on our genes lol, neither necessarily with culture, a hell lot of Germans will vote for a left socialist wasteful or a...

I couldn't agree more.

That is the way of the peronism, they always left bombs for the next governments to implode and then they return as the saviors. Always when a peronist gobernment left power is with a terrible economical situation that next gobernment need to fix and take the political impact of doing so, and...

Well you dont have a clue how much the interest rate and instability can impact in a country that has a heavy need of external debt to finance itself, trump does have a huge impact in the world economy and as well in american and Chinese economy that indirectly impact the emerging markets, and...

Actually the argentinean foreign debt is not massive, is quite manageable, that is not the biggest problem in this particular case. The problem is the deficit on the external balance that is heavily increased by the dreadnought that devastated this year harvest, and as we all know almost half...

I have 0 fear of a new 2001, the situation is not the same, an episode like 2001 was only posible because of the law of convertibility and the extreme irresponsibility. We are in nothing even near to that scenario, the only thing that worries me is a world wide recession because of the stupidity...

That is what many some people thought back in 2001 here. In any case i wouldn't be so sure that china is not going to let it fall, specially given the current market war between china and trump, remember that china play the long game and no one is going to let you borrow money for ever, the...

There are other expats forums that have a lot of life, this forum somehow is not very active. Not sure the reasons, but it is true that compare to the other forums this one is quite negative, or maybe is that the only people that remain in this forum is mostly negative and you know what they say...

I normally manage my airbnb in my apartments in the area of recoleta and i have plenty of spare time so i could manage your place if you are interested. I have many reviews in airbnb and i have been a member of baexpats for many years already, we could try a month and see how that goes if you...

Just a little detail, small business are not victims neither in this country, they all rise price as soon as they can when people is consuming and they rarely try to defend the consumer interest, to the point that their business model was not to sell more at a better price but to sell less with...

Please don't ask him to elaborate, you already know what he is going to say. Macri, dictadura, nazis laws, kristina was great, blablabla.

Uhm, well here there is 1000 times more water that is been wasted directly to the ocean every second than the water that get used in the city, after all water is in extreme abundance in this region, so mostly this kind of issues affect dry or very poor regions of the world. Hell even in the...
