Real Estate Sales Great New Construction For Sale that is going to be Completed by August 2024 - Meet Palermo

I get it the ones who disagree are the ones with families and kids to support. I'd be in yall's exact same shoes too it I were in the same position to ensure stability and push for their best outcome I could provide.

As far as any personal laziness accusations, Imma bout bury that narrative. Other than @earlyretirement I challenge anybody here in 2025 to see who's putting in more hours and commitments towards their Argentina goals.

1. 40+ hour full time working
2. ~10 hour Spanish studying in one form or another
3. A little under saving and investing 60% of monthly income
4. Approximately 4 additional hours every day 7 days a week upskilling on various courses

None of these are very impressive(except for maybe 3) but I guarantee you the average bloke won't consistently do all 4. To any who does, my hat goes off to you.
So you aren't a loser after all. Just kidding! Great job! Seriously. You went from zero to hero in one post!
 
Lol 1 is like the Chris Rock bit, people trying to take credit for something they supposed to do


I'm at intermediate Spanish level and can hold my own even at native speed. Although I mentioned early retirement it wouldn't retirement as in doing nothing, it would be to start something that has more freedom and flexibility. It's less about "retiring" from working, and more "retiring" to start something. Based on the FIRE community's numbers I would theoretically have enough to "retire" in Argentina if I were to remain single(with some wiggle room). Of course a lot can change especially here in Argentina.

OMG. Never saw this! I guess he can say that as a black male. That is very very funny.

As a typical male I would guess the first part keeps you coming back but eventually the second part becomes too much
As females we have the same conversations. Hot and dumb or smart and meh. The age old test of what is best. My combination has been hot and poor/lazy. Now I have ok and ok which on its surface might not sound too good but after all the losers I have dated I will just take plain ok! Thank God my hubby is not on this forum!

Ahhh college days - funny how perspective changes as you get older. Now a days I see crazy for what it is - crazy. Back then I used to think, "these girls aren't crazy... they're just misunderstood." The naivete of youth. No. They were crazies all along haah.
