- In this video, we're going to discuss what life is like as an expat living in Uruguay. From the good to the bad, we'll cover everything you need to know about living in Uruguay as an expat.
Uruguay is a great place to live as an expat, and this video will help you find out all the details about what it's like to live in Uruguay. From the cost of living to the climate, we'll cover it all in this video! So if you're thinking about moving to Uruguay, this is the video for you!
Recently my wife and I were invited down to Uruguay to explore the country and to start some due diligence for my private clients. We went down to see if Uruguay was a good country for expats to live in and a viable option to safely move money into the country's residential real estate and agricultural investments. This is a short preview video on what the lifestyle and the landscape looks like in Uruguay, with a lot more content to come out in the coming weeks about this.

Hey everyone, hope you enjoyed the video. Feel free to grab our new e-book on "How To Get A New Passport Fast" at expatmoney.com/how-to-get-a-new-passport-fast
I really like the idea of Uruguay. I get the impression that no one ever goes there, nothing ever happens there, and no one ever thinks of it. This is perfect for me
(I may well be totally wrong)
It is boring if you live there for real and if you like being lied to and taken advantage of and nothing absolutely nothing working then yes...you should try it .. I lived in different African countries and I prefer any of those than ever retuning to Uruguay. Most expats leave again. Only those with a criminal record or too little cash to move on will stay
As an Uruguayan we like it that way 😉
There’s lots to do but everything cost money . Is very laid back
In some way is true when I tell people where I’m from they have no idea 🤷♂️
Smh 🤦♂️
@George Aston can I get the contact
@@carolb8452 Suicides, yes. Homeless, no. Granted, these numbers are relative, but I hope that rough idea helps.
It is truly shocking and bizarre how much "nothing" happens there. Coming from the United States, it's hard to have an understanding of the societal narrative and the general direction of the country.
It exists as if suspended in time. That can be amazing and frustrating. As Jose said, Uruguayans like it that way and they should.
It is a major destination for Europeans with money who wish to escape the insanity falling on all cultures and countries of that bend. That said, it takes money. If you have it already you'll be fine. If you're looking to strike it rich, Vietnam wins hands down.
My husband and myself are traveling to Madrid and Barcelona Spain this October 2023 and onto Uruguay in December 2023. We can't wait. We would like to have dual citizenship with USA and some other country if possible. We want to be out of the USA Mid-October and come back to the USA Mid-April. Any and all suggestions are appreciated.
Have been wanting to move there for about 10 years. It is one of few countries that doesn’t tax foreign income…yet.
People living their lives in true freedom & happiness. Hope to be there oneday! 🙌
Not at all. I myself am homeless. There are hundreds if not thousands of people homeless. Something is wrong and this video does not show you the truth
@@perennial_Haru_backup sorry to hear . lived there for 5 years neeeever again
High taxes. Bs country with no future. Dying
@@Mobev1 exactly!!!
@@perennial_Haru_backup
I also hear oppressions amongst Afro and indigenous Uruguayans
Definitely one of the least informative videos I’ve seen about anything.
Lol...true. Although I assumed it was a 3rd world sh*thole but it appears to be quite clean, modern and prosperous
Uruguay has been a retirement consideration for several years, hopefully I will arrive within 6 months, great wintering ground for a 🇨🇦. @3:30 is that a bottle of Crown Royal (🇨🇦) whiskey on the table?
Do your research...most people leave again ...mostly without a single cent and lose it all ...smart educated people ...go look for some honest groups on Facebook and listen to critical voices
Thank you for the video, very upbeat, Currently looking into URU for some farm land investments. Any pointers?
My dads is from Uruguay and I plan to go for the summer and it just looks so pretty
Nice to see you running around in Uruguay, my friend.
Hermosísimo video. Felicitaciones !!!
Wow, very cool vibes!
This video doesn't show life of expat, just shows nice places and bars.
That is certainly all a part of expat life. This is just a glimpse into Uruguay. Thanks for watching!
The description says otherwise
For decades Uruguay has been well known and respected in the world of Latin America. It is a beautiful country, small, with a well educated population, largely European, and with significant stability. Punta del Este is a gem but expensive. The country is well presented in international terms. And Buenos Aires and Argentina as a whole with all their attractions are just on the other side, for those who are looking for more action and social amenities. At this point Buenos Aires does not envy Paris at all, on the contrary. I am neither Uruguayan nor Argentine,
Thanks for watching!
You mean, largely descendants of European immigrants?
Looks awesome thinking to visit from Australia 🌏
I have been waiting for this since I heard about your trip in your Podcast. Uruguay looks stunning!
What’s the price range of these places?
I’m glad you found freedom
He guy can you tell me which city of Uruguay
Looks lovely, great to see you having fun.
Great 👍🏾 video on Uruguay 🇺🇾.
Oh wow, Doug Casey and Matt Smith
Looks amazing. We've considered Uruguay for several years, I believe they don't have much of a middle-class; was that your experience? I saw one mask in the video...wondering what their mindset was/is regarding forced masking (and jabs). Also curious about the mindset in Panama. Thank you for sharing. ;)
Watch videos of Punta del Este or Pocitos montevideo and you will find what you seek
Uruguay , on the contrary, has always been a middle class country. Without too much extreme poverty or extreme wealth. It worsen with the left wing in government. But thank God they were voted out. Even though I do not live now in Uruguay, masks were mandatory in enclosed areas, such as shopping centers, etc. But after a vaccination plan that was successful, you are not forced to wear masks indoors anymore... there might be some exceptions I guess... such as hospitals, and schools I guess... just like in USA. Anyhow, Uruguayan´s economy never stopped during the pandemic, they didn´t enforce quarantine, like in neighboring countries, they just recommended people to stay home the most they could, and to keep a distance o 2 meters as well as to wear masks. At least, at the beginning people took it so seriously that anyone would have thought quarantine was in effect... 😅 The streets looked like ghost streets... no one outside.. 🥶
no middle class. only entitled br**s of low class families that got rich by selling worthless land to foreigners at premium prices. communist mindset. racist country. worst 5 years of our lives. nobody was forced to wear masks or get jabs, they did so voluntarily...when we left 1 year ago over 90% of the eligible population had the 4th!!! dosis..also they hexxed kids before pfizer even announced it safe for children of that age group...now with everyone hexxed they paddled back and said no to jab between 5 and 13 years of age...but they were all hexxed already.
Just heard on Mikkel's Expat Summit that Uruguay has the largest middle class in Latin America. Over 60%. I did not verify this stat.
The majority is middle class in Uruguay, being extreme poverty and wealth a low percentage.
lol you guys were having dinner with Doug Casey!
Mi paisito nada que envidiar a otros
Doug and Matt spotted right there 😉
Good to see Matt & Doug........ Interesting meeting I'm sure........

Tomando tanto vino y comiendo bien. ¡Estoy celoso Miguelito! 🤠
uruguay, paz, amor, pasión, calidez, calidad, fútbol, asado. bienvenidos
It's where I'll flee to if I ever see the poop hit the fan over here in Brazil :)
In fact it's the other way around ....most expats choose Brazil after having lived the h e l l that is Uruguay
@@PhuckTheQueen What do you mean by the hell...
@@lauruguayitausa hell as in horrible. 5 years never again. viveza criolla. ubiggest country of conmen ever
@@PhuckTheQueen I feel sorry for your bad experience... but in Uruguay there is a maxim that says: Dime con quien andas y te diré quien eres! (Tell me who you surround yourself with and I will tell you who you are) And if you didn´t know how to choose the right people, jobs, etc., it is not the country´s fault, but your own poor criteria to choose. Everywhere there are con people!!! Tell me. I live in the States, and if I look at this country with the "victim´s eyes," like you do... I could easily say that it is a HORRIBLE, INSECURE, DISGUSTING country full of conmen... Lots of criminals, assassins who kill masses for no apparent reasons, better don´t be in the wrong place at the wrong time, because you might not make it alive... Like those poor souls who were watching the 4th of July parade in a quiet wealthy suburb like Highland Park in Illinois... In this country there are lots of gangs, drugs, rapes, scams, you name it... A month ago, someone, somehow got access to my bank account (I do not buy anything in the internet for safety reasons), still, in here, in this very developed country, they tried to get ALMOST ALL MY LIFE SAVINGS, straight from my bank account... Thank God, and APP that had nothing to do with it, sent me a notification, and every time that happens it beeps... so it woke me up in the middle of the night, and for my horror, next to it there was a "bank regular email" asking if I had authorized "x" amount (thousands of dollars) to pay to x company... But they didn´t even bother to call me... even though the amount was for practically all my savings... I reported what happened... do you think they bothered to give me any explanations or apology? No, nothing, zero, zip, nada! But because of that I can not say that this is a shit hole! And it is funny you are judging a country for something that happens everywhere in the world... Sorry, you must luck of emotional intelligence!!! 🤔🤔🤔
And you talk about viveza criolla? In here there are millions and millios of people who practice it, they just call it "scams"!!! Practically everyday I get phone calls that are SCAMS!! Seriously, your victimhood sounds like a SCAM too!
Uruguay nice AF
how gorgeous! ❤ uy
Saw Doug Casey in this vid.
Doug is a great friend!
Thanks for such a nice video about my country
@@ExpatMoneyShow thank u so much! ☺️
I am from there and would never go back.
Why live in Uruguay when you can live in Argentina?
ten year tax holliday
I'm very interested in Uruguay, but this video Of a guy sightseeing in staying in fancy hotels in having fancied dinners. taught me NOTHING about living there! I easily could have learned more in 3 or 4 minutes on the internet. I remain interested...but maybinterests not be a good source

Seems like a great place for old boring people.
hows the gay life?
Stay in Cali
only the 1% of the 1% live like this in Uruguay
So you don't work? 💨🤑🇨🇦🤔
this is work for me
Expat = immigrants from the USA. They just hate to be called immigrants. Lolol😅
Beautiful but expensive, I prefer the Dominican republic it's a lot cheaper!!!
Uruguay is Argentina (and Brazil)''s version of US's Mexico. If there's a bad sign there you'd tell us. Also, is that Dou... Casey? 😎
What the heck are you talking about? Uruguayans do not invade Brasil or Argentina to survive like Mexicans do. On the contrary. Nowadays Argentineans and Brazilians are moving to Uruguay. Our culture is very similar to the Argentinean one and the one of Southern Brasil, and we get along with both countries. At least with Brasil there are 3 border cities that connect as one... such as Rivera-Livramento! Look for info to understand what I mean! That doesn´t happen anywhere between Mexico and USA. For me to travel to Brasil or Argentina, I just carry and ID. I do not need a passport or an special permit. I know because I´ve done it. I even crossed with my ID from Argentina to Brasil in the Iguazu area. So, I do not see any logic with your comparison! And I know Mexico and of course USA... Mexico and USA, have totally different culture... Not us... our history is so close that we all have relatives in both countries, immigrants that decided to stay in one country or another... You are dead wrong. It is funny, if you hear many Brazilian they say we are part of them... and Argentineans say we are one of their provinces... (they do it to pick up a fight with us, because we defend our Independence)... so they do not even consider us, as another country... I don´t think Americans want Mexico to be part of the USA!!! Or Mexicans can get in the US with only an ID, without visa and stay as long as they want...
Que boludo
Lived in Uruguay for five years. Never again. We would have left earlier but where stuck thanks to closed borders for two years . Lived all over the world and it is by far the worst place I have ever lived in. Not sure why all those CZcamsrs romanticise this communist beeeeeep . Really if you want to live someplace nice Uruguay is NOT it. Lovely video and footage though
Your comments are as fake as you are. Uruguay never closed its borders to leave the country... Only for foreign tourists in the country. Stop spreading lies.
@@nicolerosales1790 so the only one lying is you...sometimes patriotism can take people really too far. what sense does it make to lie about stuff anyone can google in under a few minutes???
@@PhuckTheQueen So you are saying you lived there for 5 years and couldn't leave before? that's a lie. You could have left anytime, Uruguay doesn't need or deserve people like you. During the Pandemic I went in and out of the country many times, how come if you hate it so much didn't do so?
With that poor mindset you are not going to be good anywhere. Good Luck.
Sos Argentino o caribeño, mejor mejor que te hayas ido de nuestro país
@@Agustina-pr1lu europea...debes agradecer a los argentinos que traen un poco de calidad y conocimiento a un país que no tiene ni el uno ni el otro. para mí, uruguay es un país que sufre de un narcisismo colectivo tremendo. nunca mas...no gastaré ni un solo peso mas en este país de ...beeeeep
