Me (immigrant) and my citizen wife have been insured by Swiss Medical for more than 2 decades. (I don't think my being a foreigner ever mattered) We pay - I'm not sure - about U$S250/mo w/ copay. They're good, even now with the health care system experiencing very poor health. G'Luck

There goes the neighborhood to hell.

As a longtime US immigrant in Argentina with a waste size of 34 inches, I’m baffled by having to buy size 44(!) pants. It’s a completely arbitrary designation having nothing to do with inches, centimeters or the price of empanadas at Vinnie’s (I recommend the bondiola y honey). I’m calling for...

Yes, visions of 2001 when there was not enough cash in the system to cover bank deposits.

Good to hear, Rich. Was the DHL agent able arrange using your credit card for the $130 payment to the US? Or must that be taken care of before?

A thousand thanx, Rich. But even the most explicit instructions will fall on deaf ears. I'm 80, senile and computer ignorant. I just need to pay someone to do the tramite. If you know someone.... Also, I ain't got no phone. My email is: [email protected] Thanx again!

Yes, Frank, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!

I can't get a handle on how to renew my about to expire passport. I've received many instructions, but just can't get it done. (Yo soy un viejo choto) Anyone know someone I can pay to do it for me? Thanks! Bewildered in BA
