I haven't read all of your posts. Some that I read, especially on dogs is great stuff. I can tell you love your dog. Probably more than humans which is great. I don't know which post you are referring to. IIRC, I remember reading a post where you kept telling long time residents of Argentina...

Interesting to see this kind of thing. Also it is scary how connected social media is. Are we sure it is even the same person? Maybe a different screen name? He posted some great posts on a thread about my dog. At least he is a fellow dog lover. His compassion with his dog shined through on...

I talked to a lawyer and they are interpreting it as you say @Darksider415. Do you have to start the clock over again? What do you think? You said you left the country. Do you have to start the 2 years over again? Can you not leave Argentina at all for 2 years? Will you do that?

This makes NO sense at all. We are coming back to Buenos Aires in a few weeks and just found about this as we planned to go to Brazil. Probably not difficult and less than $100 each but why create a hurdle?

Thank you for always sharing these insights on Argentina @earlyretirement . My husband lived and worked there many years ago and it is still in his heart. He still says it is one of the best places he has ever lived. We are trying to still plan to move down there. It is just complicated as we...

This sounds like typical Argy inflation. That actually doesn't sound too bad. I see property prices keep going up so rents will keep going up too. Maybe things are different now but my husband told me when he lived there typically it's a certain % of value of the property. Does anyone know...

I don't think the locals really care anymore about this. It seems like Argentines are open to their Presidents openly stealing from them. A tradition my husband jokes.

Buenos Aires has gone through these expensive to cheap to expensive cycles before. As it is getting expensive again my husband and I are getting more serious about moving again as his company has again made him an offer to transfer to the Buenos Aires office which we are considering seriously...

This certainly signals positives if banks are lending to people and people feel confident to buy with mortgages. I wonder how easily it is to evict someone if they stop paying their mortgage. My husband said it is virtually impossible to get someone out of the property if they stop paying rent...

Nothing really seems to have changed with the plan to cut big government and cut down on the regulations but it seems like the government needs a big win in the elections coming up in October.

I think it is ok for locals or even expats to complain about prices. My husband worked in Argentina a few decades ago and he said that the locals LOVE to complain about everything. It is probably logical for people to vent about higher cost of living. However that won't make prices go down.

I am American. We stayed in Recoleta at the Park Hyatt hotel. It was very nice. I will admit that we did not venture around too much besides going out to eat. My husband was going down for work and we did the normal touristy things. Mostly spent time in Recoleta which I did not see many...

Yum yum. What dish is that?

I couldn't find a good hot dog. We ate chorizos which were very good. Our son loved Chori in Palermo Soho but he was dying to eat just a plain hot dog. We actually went to the supermarket to look but all we saw where pale colored hotdogs that I am not sure what they were made out of. In the...

I am surprised to hear people speaking so negatively about the food in BA. I went last year and had amazing meal after amazing meal. Every place we went to was very good. I found a difficult time finding very good seafood but other than that we could find high end delicious food there. I am not...
