iPhone 17 Pro - 512 GB storage, Orange color. In box like new, I brought it to Buenos Aires from the US but ended up not needing it. I'm also including a case for the phone. I'm located in Recoleta, I can meet in person for the exchange, cash or bank transferencia is fine. I can also accept...

Bukele successfully reformed his country, from murder capital of the world to safest country in the Western Hemisphere in just a few years. Removing the corrupt judges holding up reforms was a key part of his success. Milei should not let officials planted by the previous administrations slow...

That's too bad, Bukele in El Salvador was able to dismiss judges and other officials that were holding up his reforms, and now he's completely transformed his country. Hoping Milei is able to do the same

Is there a mechanism in Argentina to dismiss judges?

What's it like living in Entre Rios, do you live in a city or in the campo?

When even the police won't go into the Villas, you can't expect the power companies to go in and try to disconnect people, their workers would get chopped up At the end of the day people who steal electricity and don't pay are compensated by charging higher prices than would otherwise be...

Immigrants that come to work, pay taxes and contribute to society are welcome. Those that come to live off government assistance, usurp land, and steal electricity are not the folks that Argentina needs, and Milei would do well to make more efforts to keep them out. "En la villa no se paga...

Currency stability is a big one, the peso has been around 1400-1500 for a long time now. I remember with Alberto it had a 50% devaluation in a month in the winter of 2022, that's no way for people to live. There's been decades of mismanagement, folks gotta take the medicine if we want Argentina...

Go to the Tuesday coffee chat meetups and you'll find the info you seek, it's almost exclusively made up of pensioners/retirees from the West that live in BA full time

Argentina, under the old rules, was the easiest place to naturalize by far. The bar was absolutely on the floor in terms of requirements. 2 years of presence in the country, no legal residence permit (DNI) required, just show up as a tourist or even illegally and do the 2 years. Don't need to...

Car tires in Argentina have been well known to be several times more expensive than what can be purchased abroad. Unfortunate news for those folks working at the factory, but good news for the millions of people driving cars in Argentina that can now buy cheap tires and spend their savings on...

Anecdotally I'll say I've noticed fewer homeless than in winter 2024 which was really a bad situation. It was very noticeable then, several homeless people sleeping inside the subte stations, guys sleeping in the doorway next to my building etc. Don't see so much of that nowadays

"no incluyéndose en esta categoría retribuciones obtenidas por el trabajo personal." I think this knocks out any digital nomad/remote work type income. Where are you seeing things have changed?

This pathway simply does not work and you have been misinformed. Tierra Del Fuego is now a province, no longer a territory. In any case under the recent immigration reform the minimum requirement is to live in Argentina for 2 years without leaving 1 day, legally with DNI in hand.

I recommend Santiago & Martin at Quinterno & Fidanza https://quinternofidanza.com/en/home-en/ They both speak English

Yes it's noticeable in Buenos Aires compared to before. The Argentines with European ancestry are leaving to go to USA or Europe for better opportunities. Meanwhile people from Paraguay, Bolivia, Peru, Venezuela etc are coming in droves, not to mention the folks living in Villas or usurping land

The government has now published the tender requirements for firms that are bidding to help develop and oversee the CBI program Seems the govt is targeting at least 100 applications per year, and up to around 5000 total under the citizenship by investment program. No word on the type or amount...

There are lots of banks that offer online wire transfer capability. Chase Bank, Charles Schwab bank for example.

Can you open an account without a DNI/On tourist status?

Is the economy really booming though? Seems like most folks are scraping by
