I must comment on the mention of Buenos Aires beautiful buildings. It is true, BA is beautiful. In Chile, Santiago has good and interesting buildings, etc., but much of Chile looks like it needs to be torn down. They repair buildings that need to be replaced. Much of the country is frame buildings because of the earthquakes. And yet Chile is on solid ground economically, Argentina appears to be more affluent on the surface, but the fact is that Argentina is perpetually financially wobbling. I don't know why. Friends of mine in Chile are also very economically conservative, careful to buy only what they actually need.
Also on our first investigative trip here, we met a woman and her mother who had lived here in Argentina for a few years, then went to Uruguay. They told me don't burn your bridges before you see Uruguay. And they proceeded to tell us of the years they lived here and how much better Uruguay is. So I think it's just a personal thing and what your personal experiences are.
