Been contacting a few other lawyers to try and get confirmation on things - from another immigration lawyer the other day I was speaking with regarding permanent residency:
"depending on the Mexican Consulate, it ranges from 198,000 to 364,000 US"
I laughed when she wrote that to me, numbers are just absolutely all over the place, lol.

you can see from this site that does seem official and was updated in 2020 - click on economic solvency - it says 33k as greg's plan
click on investments - it says 130k as one of my lawyers stated. (and other lawyer said 198k+) Seems completely contradictory, and if anything that should be vice-versa - wouldn't mexico prefer you have 33k IN the country rather than 33k OUT of the county? Wish I found an updated page in spanish as I'd trust that much more. The reason for discrepancy is where you money comes from I believe. They don't accept poker or crypto as income, afaik its only for jubilados, pensionados or if you have proven income source. I'm not gonna speculate on anyone else's case. I know what I had to do in person for me. Another reason to just get a lawyer.
I'll leave it at that, it seems like I'm the only one who has personally gone thru the process, but obv people are gonna have 3rd and 4th hand experiences that they saw online that says different, and maybe I went to a strict embassy (doubtful, guy was so happy to help me and gave me his personal cell number for any problems. I showed him 70k the first day, he said no and I needed more. Fresno/Central Valley is the USAs largest agricultural producer and exporter, supplies 25% of america's food supplies. ie lottttts of mexicans live/work there)
Never heard of the argie process of citizenship, but a good friend went thru the process in Uruguay which is one of the smoothest places in the world to get a second passport. After living there for 3+ years they denied him because he took too many trips outside of the country. It's never that easy.
btw - facebook dating in mexico looks to be absolutely nutted. I wrote in my thread a bit about being ghosted and stood up by a few girls from tinder, but facebook is having a huge response rate so far, although a couple mentioned that quarantine is lasting until end of August?!?!
