Also remember that in most cases there is a "tope" to the 30% discount (e.g. AR$30.000 per month, per card) meaning the discount applied across the consumers total monthly spend is often far less than the headline that gets them in the door, and when placing further limits on it like a certain...

The government announced they will now declassify all documents relating to this era, something which no Argentine government to date has done. Seems this act has caused discomfort in some sectors who seek to politicize memory of the victims of atrocities and violence committed during this era...

Try a “cafe de especialidad” (search on google maps for some options) as you will surely find some very good cafecitos in this city these days! Avoid chains like Havana/ Pain Quotidian etc.

It is a double shot espresso espresso with hot milk, but less foam than a latte or cappucino, in a smallish sized cup for those that want to taste the actual coffee more than the milk but enjoy a more creamy texture. Any café like Starbucks that asks if you want a small, medium or large flat...

And by that logic the government or tax-paying vigilantes should literally go and burn down the cars or houses of those who partook/ partake in the torching of public property so that before you know it things spiral into an senseless cycle of violence with increasingly abstract definitions of...

And of the people literally turning a police car on its side and setting it alight, how many were pensioners or old people? Having seen the raw footage, not a single one. The most disgusting thing is that they drag the most vulnerable down with them and put them in harms way (when pensioners...

My daily coffee at any of my three locals are all going for around 5000 (USD 4,04) - but an excellent flat white out of a La Marzocco or similar in truly lovely and always full surroundings that certainly were not "cheap" investments. Am not going to complain about that price having enjoyed...

US$3.50?

Portugal has a D7 visa - minimum passive income threshold EUR 820 per month. Two years, renewable. After 5 years can apply for permanent and within 5-10 years for citizenship if well integrated. Living in or near Lisbon or Porto would more than likely be too expensive. However, if living in the...

Book a flight from GRU, GIG or SCL and a separate flight from Argentina to there. Business class tickets from those countries are literally a fraction of those originating in Argentina.

Here is an article from iProfessional from 3 months ago based on a study by the firm Michael Page (who I would give a lot of credibility that they know what they are actually talking about) that goes into more details about current senior level salaries in Argentina. This may help the OP...

For comparison a pretty average senior manager / director level salary at a mid size Argentine company generally runs anywhere between USD5000-USD10000ish per month. The basic total living expenses for a professional couple living in a nice building in a nice neighborhood and doing a fair share...

It’s exactly this yet the discussion is always the same, people convincing themselves that if things are less comfortable for them personally then they are suddenly less comfortable for everyone. We tend to go great lengths to exemplify how much a specific item that is relevant to us costs to...

Curious to see the stats on tourism spend of Mercosur (excluding Brazil) versus rest of world. I am under the impression they are are high volume low yield while RoW is lower volumes high yield (due to greater spend on hotels on tourism activities, not just heading to the closest market or...

https://tableros.yvera.tur.ar/internacional.html Total 2024 inbound tourism ended -9,4% below 2023. Total 2024 outbound tourism ended +11,8% above 2023 - with December 2024 seeing +50% more Argentines travel abroad than in December 2023. This also supports air travel statistics now being at...

Here is some historical data for context: https://tradingeconomics.com/argentina/rating In the past 20 years Argentina only had a positive Moody's outlook at 4 moments... it doesn't mean much if anything against the test of time other than another "up" in never-ending rollercoaster is probably...

The reality is that high margins reflect high external risk faced by businesses in Argentina and low confidence thanks to a century of undisciplined politics that change the whole playingfield on a whim. One should always remember that when one sells something they produce today, one needs to...

IMO, currency lag between the peso and USD and indeed the relevance of the peso is a temporary issue. It's current "strength" is artificial as always as a result of policy and necessities of the day. If / when the government allows people and businesses (e.g. exporters) to freely buy and sell...

If you have an Argentine USD bank account (eg Santander) you can buy MEP via the home banking app or third party apps like Cocos Capital, Astro Pay and even MercadoPago (“Ver más” - “Tu dinero” - “Dolares”) etc to buy and sell MEP. Astro Pay issues virtual Visa debit cards in USD (issued in the...

Firstly, the MEP is nothing new. Secondly, why would the MEP still be relevant if / when the CEPO is lifted? How would 1 USD in Argentina be worth any less than 1 USD in the UK, UAE or Singapore? Don’t like or trust the jurisdiction your dollar is in, you move it in the click of a button to...
