I agree, the long term ramifications are distressing for Argentina. If Argentina really wants to pesify and make it stick they should float the currency, not without intelligence, but with strategy and planning. Possible? Yes. Likely? Not on your life.

I'm not pro emf but who else has the power and influence to do something about it?

Argentina (current admin) needs a good kick up the ass for misrepresenting inflation figures. Like the article says, bond payments are linked to inflation so by lying about inflation they have robbed investors of approximately 7 billion over the last few years. Does the average Argentine, the...

Alyhna - If you want to sell it, let me know as I might like to buy it.

I'm interested. Computer privacy, actually data privacy is a significant issue so let me know when you plan to meet up.

My 'cocaine crystals' statement refers to the 'crudeness' of the transaction... it's unrefined, complicated and highly risky. Sorry, it does come across as a bit abstract/obscure/strange but it stems from this article: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2009/aug/17/cocaine-dollar-bills-currency-us

You are right, I am exaggerating about it being as high as 30%, but it's up there 'through the central bank'. I would also like to add, for those unfamiliar with how property transactions go down here in Argentina. Forget the clean, safe, low risk bank cheque 'exchange' process you are...

If you have dollars, I've heard that there are capital market brokers who will charge a 2% fee to send your USD $ out! Some charge more but be careful as they're probably splitting the commission with the person/expat who introduces them to you. In first world countries, introduction fees are...

If you absolutely must invest in property in Argentina, like a moth drawn hypnotized by the light of a fire then what you say is correct. Now is not the time.... but I would add... not now, not ever. In my humble opinion, an investment in this country is for gamblers, uninformed, misled...

Are you crazy? No, don't do it. This country is not investment friendly so you risk losing a large part or all of your investment when you sell and try to take your money home. They have a sordid history of default and radical/unpredictable political/social policy that would make any intelligent...

The Belgrano Barbarians cricket team are a friendly bunch of expats who have one thing in common, our love for the game of cricket... and a few beers as well. As the 2012 season approaches, we're looking to bolster our ranks with more players so if you are interested in playing a few friendly...

Hi Vanessa I can see myself hiring a car and fishing along the banks of patagonian rivers for sure. I used to do lots of fishing in Australia, the snowy mountains before moving here and it's something I want to get back into doing. My main motivation for asking the question now has to do with...

I completely agree with you, irs all quite dark. On a serious note though, I find the dark undertones of public policy in this country disturbing. They have begun linking civil liberties to tax compliance. Free to purchase currencies and travel if you are square with the tax man. Freedom to...

I have a question about fishing in Argentina and would like to give it a try but am unsure about where I should go this time of year. Does anybody have experience interstate fishing? Where did you go? What was your experience?

Jejejejeje he's clearly joking around.

Just brilliant... I have some to add.... 1. Give all public servants the right to issue arbitrary taxes if they suspect somebody has dollars. 2. Round up anybody who dissents and secretly have them silenced. It worked before 3. Shut down the media and have all public statements controlled by...

Haha I thought you meant the apple siri. :-)

It can't be improved, its genetically encoded. The powers that be are seriously corrupt and will do everything they can to hang onto it so individually you are powerless.

Even 5% is way over priced!! My agent does it for much less. Message me.
