    The fastest I've ever gotten my DNI

    No. Temporary. But whenever I renewed it could take up to 5-6 months for the new one to arrive, even after following up multiple times. But the last time, the person at immigration said to give it a few weeks and come back if I didn't receive it. I waited, didn't show up. I went to the civil...

    The fastest I've ever gotten my DNI

    I found the fastest way we to go to the civil registry in my city and order the DNI and pay the urgency fee. With that it arrived in 10 days, but I think of you are in BA you can go to the office and get it same day or next day

    Papel Manteca / Parchment Paper

    About aluminum foil I've messaged them asking more details, I've also tried to messaging hormonal and alumax (the manufacturer). I haven't had much luck. But I'm hoping if I go to dinner stores I can get some definitive answers of what might be available. I'd recommend seeing what others use in...

    Papel Manteca / Parchment Paper

    Slightly related, has anyone here found a source of really good thick heavy duty aluminium foil that doesn't puncture easily? I think the most I was able to find was up to 15 or 18 (?) microns thick, nothing near the thickness of the heavy duty stuff found overseas around 35 microns.

    Seems citizenship by investment is kind of dead in the water?

    Was the previous CBI not based on rendering services, innovation, or investment in an industry which is of national priority? Is the proposed one not more of straight forward transaction without other obligations? Is the basis of the constitutional challenge that this cannot be executed by...

    Summary from Gemini and some links (the first two work in some browsers but not others, I'm not sure why), but in short the US is Travel Banning countries with it, so it will be a risk for the vast majority of citizens.

    Has Argentina Become Worse Or Better for Foreign Retirees recently?

    1) In 2023 the Blue Dollar never hit 1430. The highest it was 1220 and that was after election and then it dropped. So cherry picking data doesn't help your argument. See charts of currency below. 2) You continue to ignore and accept 2 things, i) The meat previously was priced with the official...

    Has Argentina Become Worse Or Better for Foreign Retirees recently?

    The issue is also his example also focuses specifically on Beef and Gasoline (petrol). Both categories had government policies to control the domestic price, so they weren't free market (real price) trading previously. Beef I noted above in another post, and for gasoline the Milei administration...

    Has Argentina Become Worse Or Better for Foreign Retirees recently?

    1) I am not AI or a LLM. I simply use points to separate responses, I don't know how you quote just sections without quoting the whole post. The hierarchical response is help keep it ordered and clearly differentiate between points. 2) My initial response to a post Lanick made saying who would...

    Has Argentina Become Worse Or Better for Foreign Retirees recently?

    1) Ya that is where the rates went during the year because of the election, while at the same time the business leaders in BA were saying the realistic exchange rate was 1000 Pesos. Before milei won his preliminary election in August it was around 500 pesos? then jumped to 700-800, then after...

    Has Argentina Become Worse Or Better for Foreign Retirees recently?

    Like Ries mentioned above, I don't find Argentina more expensive than other places as a whole. Housing, most foods are equal or cheaper here, and could be significantly cheaper so it depends on your diet, compared to North America. Housing is much cheaper here I find. Utilities are cheaper here...

    Whats up with Argentines not wanting business?

    I am not sure I understand your comment. CABA was and is the historical capital as well as port city, so it is logical to be a major center for commerce. Within CABA there will be many academics, professionals with the biggest offices, lawyers, finance, accounting, etc that will service the...

    Argentines plunge into debt for bills, cars and birthday parties

    Based on things I have read and watched this is just my opinion but a lot changed with the pandemic. Almost every country followed the same playbook which was spend big.

    Argentines plunge into debt for bills, cars and birthday parties

    No the Japanese people do not want inflation. Watch videos about. Japan is cheap to foreigners but to Japanese its expensive now. The inflation is outpacing salaries. It is becoming increasingly difficult for them. Macroeconomics is different than microeconomics. One could say the same for...

    Whats up with Argentines not wanting business?

    From my experience I haven't typically had issues with getting responses. When looking at motorcycles, appliances for home or a business, either in person or through Instagram or Whatsapp. The only thing I have noticed that there can be an amazing range of prices. Sometimes its due to cuotas and...
