    Is the Milei "Transformation" Failing Already?

    Is the Milei "Transformation" Failing Already?

    I lived in Buenos Aires during the Menem period when the peso was one to one with the USD. Business was booming at the time with a lot of international investment coming into the country and was a great time to be there for locals and expats alike. Pity it didn’t last too long. I hope Milei...

    Is the Milei "Transformation" Failing Already?

    The currency in Argentina is pesos not dollars and this is what Argentines get paid in. In that regard inflation is dropping dramatically which is great news for the economy but perhaps not for expats with dollars to spend who have been living in a bubble with regards to prices in dollars. A...

    Is the Milei "Transformation" Failing Already?

    Monthly inflation in Argentina is dropping dramatically under President Milei's chainsaw attack on corruption and a bloated administration. He is progressing very well indeed. Mortgages now available in Argentina too. Great time to invest in real estate again perhaps ?

    Argentina sees sharpest drop in beef consumption for 30 years

    Mass Meat consumption is immoral. Go work in a cattle slaughterhouse for a few days and see how you feel. Spend time with the animals before their mothers are killed. How would you like this done to your family?

    I lived in Rio and although the crime rates are higher it didn’t really affect our quality of life. You just need to keep your wits about you and use common sense when out and about. Of course also depends on which area you live in too. We were in Leblon which was fine and same thing for...

    I lived in Rio during that period. Lets not forget about the biggest corruption scandal during that period in the history of Brazil that Lula was sent to prison for. Cristina managed to wangle her way out of her own corruption scandals. Should have been sent to prison also.

    Is the Milei "Transformation" Failing Already?

    Totally agree. It’s a huge task he has on his hands but seems he is progressing step by step. Rome or Buenos Aires wasn’t built in a day
