Milei Secures Argentina's First Budget Surplus Since 2012 After Only One Month In Office

The budget fix (and $589 million positive balance) took Milei only one month in office to achieve and leaves the political left with some embarrassing questions to answer.

A balanced budget is the first step towards removing the country's economy from under the thumb of the International Monetary Fund and the organization's $44 billion loan

If by the end of this year we cannot get at least 70-80% of the funding we need for TROM, see www.tromsite.com/donate/, then we will have to shut down and limit many of our projects. This is unfortunate but there is no way we can support so many projects, let alone grow them.

If we cannot find 200 people to donate 5 Euros a month to support the many projects that we have, then perhaps it is a sign that some things have to end. In particular TROM.tf that provides a video platform with unlimited uploads for everyone, a file hosting with 10GB of diskspace for anyone who joins, a social network and a chat platform opened for the public. Plus more such services. They will have to close, or solely be available for us at TROM to host our stuff.

I will give you more details these following weeks about what projects will be shut down in case our campaign fails by the end of this year.

There will probably be a video series that I will start for TROM in a few weeks time, but unless I find enough support to help me battle this trade-based society, then I cannot do much. TROM.tf costs a lot of money and it will cost us more and more, the more people use it. We need more diskspace, more CPU power, and such.

It is unfortunate but I need to be realistic and deal with these things in a graceful way. If I am to remove many of our projects, they will be done in a smooth way, landing the plane rather than crashing it. So do not worry. You'll have enough time to move to different platforms and save your files.

In the meantime I will work this year to make these projects better, keep them updated, release new things. I will give them my best shot to hopefully get enough financial support in order to continue with them.

10 months to decide. 10 months to get the needed financial support. 10 months to try once more. :)
