    How's everyone hanging in there with the cost of living these days?

    Thanks~ For the "purchasing power" of the dollars. For example, I paid my kids school fee 12/2023: $200,000 peso blue dollar: around $950 school fee is USD $210 12/2024: $500,000 peso blue dollar: around $1100 school fee is USD $450 another example is apartment's expenses, like "on the...

    How's everyone hanging in there with the cost of living these days?

    I can speak freely here. My wife and I gave up our professional jobs in our home country to live here because we wanted our child to learn Spanish and experience the culture here. At the same time, we hoped to develop other career opportunities to settle in Argentina long-term. First goal: Our...

    How's everyone hanging in there with the cost of living these days?

    I have paid VAT on every purchase and have never used the public hospital and education. I paid in cash every time I visited the private doctor and the private school. Every month, the money I transfer to Argentina contributes to foreign exchange inflow rather than the domestic financial cycle...

    How's everyone hanging in there with the cost of living these days?

    I am from East Asia. I own a house in my home country. The main reason I came here was to let my child learn Spanish. (Now my child speaks very well.) Basically, we have achieved something. The second reason, honestly, was that the cost of living used to be cheap. However, everything has...

    Isn’t the exchange rate almost the same now when shopping directly with a foreign credit card?

    How's everyone hanging in there with the cost of living these days?

    Yes, for people with children, everything has gone up in price, and when you add it all together, it becomes quite a burden. Clothes, as children are always growing, new clothes are a constant necessity. Tuition fees, stationery, activity costs. Food – parents might be able to go without or eat...

    How's everyone hanging in there with the cost of living these days?

    After living here for over two years, we’ve decided to leave in a few months and return to our home country. Living off foreign currency income, we’ve had to monitor exchange rates daily to know when to convert to pesos. The constant fluctuations in the exchange rate have left us feeling...

    How much more are you paying for your health (prepaga) insurance?

    I understand the importance of being prepared for unexpected situations, so I have insurance that covers hospital stays and serious illnesses. In my opinion, there aren't many different insurance options or products available here (Maybe just I don't know). In my hometown, we have health...

    How much more are you paying for your health (prepaga) insurance?

    Compared to my hometown, the insurance fee here is really expensive, especially when considering the ratio of the insurance fee to the consultation fee. If you want to cover your insurance fee, you'd have to visit the hospital every week. For example, my child recently visited a private doctor...

    How much more are you paying for your health (prepaga) insurance?

    Pay $0. Becuase the private clinics, hospitals, and the dentists are not expensive. Therefore, I pay by myself every time. Normally, you won't need to go to see doctor every month.

    Western Union money transfer

    Oh... I understand now. I got confused because when I went to some exchange stores in Brazil, they did not accept USD 100 bills with old versions, notes that are stained, have marks, or just look too dirty. I thought people like new notes.

    Who has left or is planning to leave?

    aybe it's not easy to become a citizen in East Asia, but obtaining residency is not difficult. When comparing factors like salary, safety, taxes, and the economic environment, we choose to return there........... As a foreigner, you may not fit in initially, but we respect diversity, making it...

    Who has left or is planning to leave?

    yes in Europe, there is a inflation problem and the Euro is weaker than USD, so you still can accept it. However, when I consider the Precios Justos last year and compare them to the current prices, I feel incredibly frustrated and find the situation unacceptable. 3 dollars for 600g bread...

    Western Union money transfer

    I never use my bank account to pay Western Union; I always use my credit card to pay so that I can collect airline miles at the same time. 😂

    Who has left or is planning to leave?

    I have to say that the cost of living has risen a lot in the past few months, and the USD hasn't risen much, nearly similar to December 2023. It really impacts our lives, because we don't speak Spanish, we can't find a job here.😢 I really like this country, culture and the people, but this is...

    Western Union money transfer

    Maybe WU will change the rate in the afternoon. They sometimes change the rate around 2 pm or 5 pm. If the rate goes up, they will delay the change for 1-2 days, maybe they want to see the trend (some people said that in the previous replies). If the rate goes down, they will change it immediately.😂
