Yerba mate sales from Argentina surpass Brazil again. Good signs.

I wouldn't go by anything official good or bad. Too much of the economy is underground.

The Argentine peso reminds me of Bitcoin. Each side arguing their point but the damn thing the same every time I look at it even though it has wild swings depending on what week you bought it.

This is why Trump probably said that they will be involved in running things for a while but in a country like Venezuela it probably will take time to get sorted out. Step #1 was taking out Maduro. The country is full of nasty people in the government and Maduro getting pulled out probably...

Oh that would be a serious bummer to start out a vacation having to pay thousands in fines that you didn't know about!

I wonder how many Venezuelans are against what Trump did. I am seeing videos on Tik Tok of people that Trump deported even admitting and applauding and thanking Trump for doing this. Makes me laugh a little there are so many people that are against liberating these people. Most of them...

Lots of crime in Cordoba.

Heads up the WU rate is very good now. Blue dollar is at 1430 and I just got 1,516 per $1 today at Western Union.

What I have found is that they are more open here vs other countries. It is not a matter of just being politically correct either. I have friends that openly speak like that and although I like them as friends I am embarrassed for their behavior. I saw this on another X post today. And was...

It's getting difficult. I don't care if you're living here as expat, immigrant or local. Probably why Avocado finally took enough is they are frustrated. Some of my friends are thinking about having to leave a country they love and where all their family is from to move. That causes stress and...

I don't think this is a good idea for Argentina.
