Argentina Ranks 4Th On Cato Institute Misery Index

I personally was very happy when I moved to Argentina. I was happy when I left New York City 7 years ago and happy to arrive here as I had planned on coming here for the long term after having visited 2 times and loved it. Things were great the first couple of years, lots of new friends and experiences, I fell in love..........fast forward to 2012, my relationship sadly ended, but lasted for nearly 5 years, which for me was a record, 2/3 of the friends I made when I came here have left Argentina and moved to other countries, and while I have made some other awesome friends during these 7 years, I miss those people who greeted me and introduced me to so many wonderful new things. I was okay up until the end of 2012, then I started to really see the huge problems here, the difficulty in planning any future and the dire economic reality. I've always been lucky enough to have a stable income here, either by working or having my own business for a couple of years. My family owned a business in New York for over 20 years with 27 employees and we never even had a fraction of difficulties I had running a business here for 3 years with 2-3 employees. Anyway as some of you know, I've decided to leave, life is not what I want it to be in Argentina, I am looking forward to restarting my life back in the US and I will always remember my time here, but I realize this country is no longer for me. I am not miserable, but I am not happy and that's a big issue for me......I am the one who has to change that and not be one of those people who complain incessantly but take no action....
