Question

thanks your your insight! the recommended website is very complete and informative.

Answer 1

Yes it is a good place to retire. . . .providing you come from a country with a higher standard of living.

The Argentinians are well educated, sophisticated and they live very much like Europeans do

First piece of advice:  Do not convert your investments or accounts to their system, keep it where you are and move funds to you on a monthly basis.

The big cities Bs As is fine just like any other place.  There are smaller cities and more rural areas in the Pampas. . . .do you want solitude or hum-drum, up to you.

I have been there on several trips and find it much like a European atmosphere.  I also have often thought to settle in either Argentina or Chile. . . .don't even try to compare them to Mexico or other Central American countries.

Answer 2

Well, I hear that Argentina has had a LOT of political and economic instability, and who knows? THey may try to re-do the entire value of their moentary system.

Plus, The Presiden'ts apparently in bed with Hugo Chavez, so let's not and say we didn't OK?

Answer 3

Check the following website, it is written by Americans living in other parts of the world.  Check what they have to say about Argentina. I have only visited Argentina and loved it, but this was many years ago...

Hope this helps.
