Hey everyone, I am aware that this is _BA_ expats, but this is the most helpful expat forum I have found, so I am asking here :) Has anyone here been to/lived in Costa Rica, before/after being to/living in Buenos Aires? How did it compare? What does each lack that the other offered? Is it...

I recently contacted ARCA, and they aren't being very helpful. They insist that I must be making $1,000/month from investments or my own business before I can go there. That's with the Financier Visa. I don't own my own business, though. I'm only 23, and I'm not planning on retiring (at least...

My wife, son(4) and I have decided to move to BA in approx. 6 months - so I'm doing as much research as I can right now :) The main reasons we want to go: 1) Education (not only for our son, but we would both like to learn cantonese also) 2) Culture (My wife loves culture-esque things.) 3)...
