What happens if Argentina gets too expensive? What are alternative cities/countries to move to when it's overpriced in Argentina?

I have heard a lot of people have moved. Just saw this on X. This guy said Germany is cheaper.

If Argentina becomes too expensive, especially considering that many things are still relatively affordable compared to cities like New York, there are several alternative cities or countries to consider for relocation. For example, my apartment rent here is only 25% of what I would pay in New York City (if I could even find a cheap apartment there), making Argentina still a great option for affordable living. However, I have noticed an increase in prices, like for coffee. While it can vary depending on where you go, it’s noticeably more expensive at places like Starbucks, a US-based company, compared to local cafes.

If Argentina’s costs keep rising, countries or cities with similar affordability and a high quality of life could be appealing. Cities like Medellín, Colombia, or Montevideo, Uruguay, are often mentioned for their relatively lower costs of living and pleasant climates. Other places in Southeast Asia, such as Bali or Chiang Mai, are also popular for expats due to their affordable living and vibrant local cultures. Ultimately, it all depends on the lifestyle you’re looking for
