As inflation in Argentina soared close to 100% in 2022, a 30-year high, people are doing whatever it takes to survive. Some barter online for pantry staples, and others ditch the peso to shield the value of their savings.

Que chanta Mercedes x Dios!
It's funny how there's been little mention of the extreme left-wing, socialist policies dating back to the 1930s that successive governments have installed that's brought Argentina to where it is today. But yeah, mention some "right wing" party that's just a little further right of the leftists running Argentina.
Argentina seems like Spain without Latinos!!
this was a good video but that andrew tate video was not worthy
Just for context, right now .25 cents USD is 1 Argentinian Peso. The Mexican Peso is worth more, currently.
The love of the left wing ideology.
Honestly, I don’t feel bad for them. They voted for this and now can’t do anything about it because they gave all their rights and freedom to the government. Consequences of their own actions. The US is headed in the same direction, these politicians need to all go, they’re all professional scammers.
The way I see this recession most likely has an external cause. The United States is losing influence as a federal currency for the first time in decades. They don’t have any economies to utilize or control their inflation, and less money is being spent on stock and oil trading than previously. They all lend credence to the hypothesis that a new multilateral world order may be in the works.
It's hard to predict the future until we see this month’s inflation results. However, historical data consistently show that stocks tend to outperform bonds in the long term. Therefore, I'm staying in the market and focusing on selecting high-quality stocks. The challenge lies in identifying these stocks.
This is what's in store for the United States thanks to thieves from Nixon to today.
And they want the Falklands. Aint going to happen.
This is what happens to a nation when the government subsidizes everything to keep people calm then pimps out the economy to line their pockets and hoard wealth in other currencies like euro and dollar and leaves their people to fight for the scraps acting like they care about them. Kirchner style politics tore this country to shreds. I couldn't wait to leave this place about two weeks after I got there.
Welfare spending ruined Argentina. Unlike America, Argentina prints a useless currency. Argentina should be an emerging economy. But their attitude towards work is what keeps them poor.
Turkish inflation is more then that ☠️
Looks like Javier Milei is gonna win because of this inflation
The biggest problem we have is that we rely on the system, it keeps us stuck in the system, we best to create our own system. Raise our own food. Get out of the system. Cities will become worse to live in. I’m an ex Zimbabwean, I lived in London, 2007 it was ok. Now London has just changed, it’s harder, hostile and expensive
Why does a lot of traders also believe that inflation is an excellent time to invest across the financiaI markets? Even though treasury rates and other safer cash-like products are paying well. Though I'm not sure, I'm considering adding $390k to my st0ck portfoli0. I'm still at a crossroads deciding, Ideas please?
and this people still vote for the same government
Me imagino la calidad de los productos disponibles en el trueque…
It’s time to RESET the system a begin an actual just monetary system, ran by the people, with 💯 transparency, and never again given to a Government to handle as we can clearly see from all of history how those systems always come to an end due to greed and theft of those in control.
You get used to it. It's a big deal but you go to bars and they are full, people go on vacations as usual, there are jobs, union fight for the salary not to get behind inflation, the welfare system works, people are obsessed with the dollar value as usual, but we are fine. People overreact mainly pushed by media but we are ok. If you watch this kind of reports, every country in the world has issues. And every country think they're in some sort of crisis. And Argentina is not Buenos Aires. And certainly Argentina is not the Capital City.
Now it's at 140% annualy
As an argentinian i can say: Please get me out of Argentina.
She works up to 3 hours per day. My goodness what a hardship
why a 'rich' country has this inflation is a shame.
I'd hate to have to carry aoooo many bills worth so little 🤦🏻♂️
i came here to give some actualization on argentinas inflation.. 9 months after this video we have 138% inflation…
EU QUERO QUE PIORE A SITUACAO. ELES SEMPRE FORAM RACISTAS COM OS BRASILEIROS, SEMPRE MENOSPRESARAM OS BRASILEROS. VOTARAM PARA ESSA MERDA DE COMINISTA ENTAO….. ELES MERECEM
Milei Presidente
This will happen even worse in the U.S., as our debt is greater than all other nations combined. Our fall will be epic and history making.
In my country Uruguay a lot of people go to Argentino because its very cheaper for the foreign people 😢
This is why I stack silver the U.S could be next also I buy toilet paper in bulk.
Corruption + peronismo means decadent reality in Argentina's present. This has been this way for decades. I heard my grandmas tell me a thousand times the same thing, obviously it's gotten much worse
The most important thing that should be on everyone mind currently should be to invest in different sources of income that doesn't depend on the government. Especially with the current economic crisis around the word. This is still a good time to invest in various stocks, Gold, silver and digital currencies.
Coming to America soon. Brought to you by Joe Biden and the Democrats.
Take note, citizens of America. This will soon be coming to us
Venezuela and Zimbabwe: Amateurs.
El River se fue a la B
want to meet you to learn practically I have already joined your telegram community well
Íes the time to buy real state in Argentina so is cheap
damn you tube, stop putting vice in my feed, anayways, vote Milei in second round, bye
Today we got the same Minister of Economy running for President and 300% inflation of foods and $1000 exchange rate!
10 months later and the inflation rate has gone up to 144%. There is still 50% of the population that are eager to continue voting the same political party. Masochists .
Argentina did it to its self it always been on the wrong side . Like with Germany 2 world war
Don't cry for me Argentina . Dont worry I will not
South American country……..
Result of socialism.
How sad it is to see such a beautiful country with beautiful culture go through such bad economic crisis. My heart goes out for mis hermanos. Abrazo desde 🇧🇷 ❤
Latin America = land of subhumans
