Wow things sound like they are heating up in the real estate space! What timing. I just read they are going to give Argentine citizenship for people investing half a million bucks! Seems like this is all timed and planned out!

Wow I wish I knew people are willing to bring electronics down for people! Does this offer stand in the future? If so, I will start to participate and post more! I need some things. @earlyretirement or @Johnny do you guys come to BA often? Could you bring an IPhone for me? I would be willing...

I always wondered if these were real. They say photos verified. The girls look hot but why do so many get tattoos! Terrible. I have seen a few from SoloIndependientes.com which were real but photoshopped a good bit. There is a local men’s forum that talks about bait and switch.

The plan is working. I have friends now that are spending cash they have saved for years. They couldn’t spend it as they never declared the income. One of my female friends brings clothes from Miami or trips abroad and sells them here. The profit margins are huge! She makes a few thousand...

Wow thank you everyone for sharing your stories. This is shocking to hear. I heard things were a bit different there but it is shocking after living in Latin America before. We didn't think Mexico was bad at all. By and far most were honest. This sounds scary. We will have to re-evaluate if...

That is terrible. We lived in Mexico City and not speaking Spanish we still got by. My company will help us with contacts. All of my team in BA all speaks English. @ChaChaK can you explain how you got ripped off of thousands of dollars? That is not nice to hear. I do worry about my kids but...

That is not the Wall Street Journal. This is the New York Times. Black and white.

Why?

The press was so positive before the crypto scandal. Things sure took a turn quickly.

Thank you for this very detailed list! We have a list of general items but this is more detailed and will incorporate into our expense list. We left a lot of things off. Can I ask why you didn't want to raise your kids in Buenos Aires @earlyretirement? I know that is a personal question so feel...

Thanks to all for answering. Wow I am shocked to hear prices are so much more today vs only 1.5 years ago when my coworker was stationed there in BA. She did not have kids. I read statistics that talked about average salaries and low rental prices. How can the average family with kids afford...

Thanks. Good questions. My office is near Puerto Madero but I heard there were no houses there. We would ideally want a 4 bedroom house so we have plenty of room. None of us speak Spanish including me. I am not opposed to my kids learning some Spanish but the school would need to primarily be...

I just got a job offer to relocate to Argentina. We enjoy traveling and we have relocated several times with my work. Once to Mexico City and another time to São Paulo. I have 3 children. All of them under 6 years old. Both my husband and I have done a lot of research but we are finding...
