    I was born in BA & lived most of my life in USA. After 7 yrs in Panama I moved to BA 2 yrs ago. Was able to regain my citizenship here. My son was able to become an 🇦🇷 citizen too. I ❤ BA. Just wish the winters weren't so chilly.

    I was recently in BA and was quite impressed with the city. BA has a HUGE cultural life(Spanish language of course), but with research it reveals itself to you.The restaurants are FANTASTIC and are reasonable.However watch the sidewalks ! Uneven pavement and doggy stuff on the sidewalk.

    I remember in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Argentina was considered to be somewhat expensive because the exchange rate was significantly less favorable than it is now. And it sounds like Argentina is about to get a LOT more expensive for people looking to move there from abroad. I think I'll probably "wait and see" on Argentina.

    This guy loves Argentina so much. Nevertheless, as much as beautiful Buenos Aires is, if things won't improve much and soon I would expect him among many others to move out of Argentina in the near future. This country is insanely expensive. Kind of sad.

    Thanks for this valuable information. Nearly all of the videos I've watched give the city effusive and rave reviews but it's difficult to find current, up to the minute information on the daily mechanics of how to get your foot in the door and live there long term. I stress the need for current info because of the effect inflation will have on a gringo on a fixed pension. What's doable today might be too expensive in the near future. I've been to BA twice and even though times are tough all the restaurants are packed until the wee hours all week long. It's owing to the fact that tomorrow your money will be worth less, will buy you less so spend it today. The questions posed to Paul Curley were bang on target.

      Relativamente cierto lo que comentas, porque la crisis econòmica no afecta a la mitad de la poblaciòn que tiene poder adquisitivo o se maneja en dòlares. Para esa gente hasta es conveniente manejarse en inflaciòn porque los precios estàn bastante atados a la suba del dòlar.

      I used ear buds and they cleaned the sound up crisply. The problem as I see it is that very often on podcasts both the host and the guest are speaking from their homes and in a room with poor acoustics and not in a dedicated studio or sound absorbing room.

    If it wasn’t for their ridiculously unstable and volitile economy and super unstable currency, I might consider opening a bank account in BA and transfering enough money each month to retire there. But that is an unrealistic and super-risky pipe-dream. Too bad. I really like BA. Using their black market currency is a no-go for me.

      Why would you need to open a bank account there? You can just wire money to Western Union from your foreign-based bank account each month. Banking plan aside, the current uncertainty with their economy is enough to hold back from making any long term commitments to living in Argentina.

    No-one should overstay a visa. That's bad advice. I know someone who received a deportation notice, so it happens. Recoleta is the most desirable area. La Boca dreadful; San Telmo 'edgy' as he says but improving. Prices are volatile due to the instability of the nation. Wifi and cable TV are expensive. He's obviously living on a tight budget since he hunts around for promotions. Health insurance: not available if you are 65 or over. You have to get it before 65 then you can keep it at a higher rate.
