we just got residency 120 days after completing 3 years of a pensionista visa. So just over 3 years, start to finish. This route allows you to come and go during the 3 years, as long as you spend the majority of each year in Argentina. But things are constantly changing.

I believe this article is a gift from Amazon for Milei making it easier for them to deliver to Argentina.

I actually met some one, a few years ago, who rented an apartment in a villa. He was a pretty normal argentine 20 something, not rich, didnt have expensive belongings he was worried about. It was the one at the south end of puerto madero, near boca. He was perfectly happy, the rent was lower...

I dont say he used Ai before it existed- just that he has been pretty convincingly accused of using it recently to make his videos look scarier. again, its not journalism, its not researched- its theater. Its a scary movie, and the hero always wins.

besides being a total idiot, this guy "Kurt" bases all his youtube vids on going to dangerous places, and, miraculosly, EVERY SINGLE TIME, not being killed or robbed. Its theater. My guess is he has paid advance men, finding him situations and people to "interview". Its called "poverty tourism"...

A couple of years ago, we saw wild guanacos and vicunas by the side of the roads in catamarca. They have been continuously living in most of the andes, down to chubut and tierra del fuego. Its pretty cool to see them in the wild.

When you have a precaria, you may be able to get a one year dni tarjeta. But when your actual residency comes thru, you get a permanent one. Its been a pain getting a dni after 4 months of waiting, which then expires in 8 months. Mercado libre doesn’t care, but some things wont let you register...

We used a lawyer. We had to file an amparo with a judge. After waiting 120 days, from filing, which came after 3 years of pensionista visas, you can file with a judge, and he tells migraciones, enough already, and within two weeks we got our residency. Our lawyer told us Milei has fired everbody...

It varies a lot from State to State, the USA is a big place. I own ag zoned land, and its in open space zoning, which bumps my property tax down. But I also live in a place (the PNW) where there hasnt been a $10k residential lot in 60 years or so. A half acre with a rotting mobile home on it...

Santi sells some cheddar, as do a few other high end places. But it wont taste "exactly" like what you think is cheddar- which actually ranges quite a bit in taste between the UK, Europe, the USA, or Australia. Personally, I would just use Sardi, which is much like a sharp cheddar, although...

the natural resource curse does not discriminate about who "owns" the land. It is about national policies, and their failures. In this case, the new Milei law is to encourage resource extraction- the foreign companies buy the rights, and sometimes the land itself, sometimes not, and then...

Doug Tompkins, and his widow bought, then donated between 1 and 2 milloin acres to the chilean park system ,as well as over 150,000 hectares in Corrientes in Argentina. And the Danish botanist, Troels Pedersen, donated 17,000 hectares to become Mburucuyá national park. But neither of those...

Since by the governments own admission, a lot of the impetus for this change is to sell land to foreign companies who seek to extract, and export, natural resources, anyone who really cares about this subject could read this really interesting study, by an economist, about the results...

I became a fan of Tonolec it 2008 or so, not long after the band was founded by Charo Bogarin and Diego Perez, from Formosa and Chaco, respectively. It was, from the beginning, an homage to indigenous argentine musics, but brought forward into the 21st century by the musical range of Perez. by...

Obviously they were both elected, which is why I used quotation marks. The resignation of Campara was not the action of a normal "democratic state". It was a manipulation by Peron himself. And the subsequent election of Isabel certainly is not a sign of a healthy democratic state- she was...

I am not getting where you get the "democratic state" history. Argentina had a continuing series of military coups from the 1930s thru 1973, when Campora won the election, lasted less than a year, then "gave" the presidency to Peron. Peron was supported by the military, the church, and the...

you are kind of proving my point. a family, here, can hang on to land forever. no property taxes, no school bonds, no inheritance tax. In the USA, I live in an agricultural area, and I own a small farm. the average price per hectaire there, assuming it was not zoned to build homes, (which...

I went to high school with Bill Gates. There was serious family money there. His mom was close friends and on a board of directors with the head of IBM, hence the ability to buy what became windows for a pittance. He had a trust fund that paid to create Microsoft.

since 80% to 90% of the arable land in Argentina is owned by under 1000 individuals or business entities, this change will do nothing for the ordinary citizen, but, like most other argentine laws, will benefit the inherited wealth of the few who are already very wealthy. This will not result in...

I am baffled that, given the factual evidence that at the very least, around 10,000 people were kidnapped, and many were tortured, some were raped, and all were then killed, many by throwing them, alive, out of a plane thousands of feet above the ocean- it somehow makes a huge difference what...
