RE: Can you retire cheap in Mendoza, Argentina?

ENGLISH

Non existent, just like the rest of South America. They also speak a strange dialect of Spanish, so even though I can speak a basic travel Spanish, it was really difficult here.

HAHAHAHA IT'S TRUE, Argentines deform the Spanish language a lot, we don't speak neutral Spanish as in other South American countries, not to mention that there are a lot of strange expressions to learn. English is not very common. Maybe in downtown Buenos Aires you will find places with someone who speaks English for tourist purposes, but in other places I don't think so.

I think that in Argentina there are some things cheap, others not so much, but our minimum wage is only 250 USD. If you ask how most of us here survive, it's a mystery.
