303: Javier Milei’s Presidency: The Real Impact On Freedom In Argentina – Skot Sheller
Manage episode 425716442 series 2585341
TODAY’S CONVERSATION WITH SKOT SHELLER
- Discover how Skot first became fascinated not just with Argentina but with its history and politics.
- How did Argentina wind up with an anarcho-capitalist as President after decades of socialism? Skot lays out how Milei maneuvered his way into the Presidency.
- Learn how the black market completely managed the exchange of dollars and pesos in Argentina when the government proved unreliable.
- Uncover the reasons why, despite concerns about de-dollarization, the dollar is still seen as a safe haven compared to many Latin American currencies.
- Can Javier Milei really go after the Argentinian central bank? Skot breaks down the odds that he can deliver on his intentions to close the central bank entirely.
- Find out what departments Milei was able to cut immediately - you won’t believe some of the “Ministries” that the Argentine government was funding!
- Hear Skot break down the challenges Milei faces from within his own government - and why it’s not inconceivable that he could even be impeached.
- Would I recommend Argentina as a Plan-B location due to Milei’s Presidency? Hear what I’m telling my clients who have been asking me about it.
- Should people be concerned that Milei has spoken at the World Economic Forum? Skot and I discuss the circumstances and content of his WEF speeches.
- An Argentinian alliance with NATO? Skot and I look beyond the headlines to decipher what this really means.

It was great speaking to Skot and learning about Javier Milei from someone who had followed his work since well before he skyrocketed to the peak of Argentinian politics. While I have reservations about Argentina as a Plan-B recommendation, I can’t deny that the political situation is an interesting one, and it will certainly be a country to keep an eye on as the political situation unfolds.Mentioned in this episode:
Veritas Panama - Offgrid Community
After 17 months of bureaucracy, my partners and I successfully got our permits for Veritas Panama! This is the fully off-grid community we are building in the highlands of Panama. We have already started building the roads, subdividing the lots, installing the septic and water, and even installing solar panels, so everything is independent of the power grid! The site we chose is unbelievable; we are up at a flat plateau about a thousand feet up a mountain with incredible unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean. To go to the beach, it is just 15 minutes down to the water. We have mature fruit trees on site, including these gorgeous 200-year-old mango trees and many other things, such as avocado trees, papayas, and delicious tropical fruits. You can find out more information and contact us at VeritasPanama.com But please be aware that there are only 100 home sites, and without even talking about this to the general public, a lot of the lots are already sold… So if you dream of living in a completely off-grid community, enjoying the beautiful weather, close to the beach, being food, water, and energy independent, and want to have like-minded and cool neighbours, people who respect personal, medical, and economic freedoms, then I want you to contact us at VeritasPanama.com today
