In 2023, Argentina was dying: • Central Bank $12B in debt • 50% poverty rate • 7,500% inflation Then Javier Milei became President. 11 months in, he's pulling off the greatest economic turnaround ever. In a 2-hour pod with Lex Fridman, he revealed exactly how he did it: When Javier Milei became Argentina’s president in December 2023, the country was in crisis: Inflation at 7,500%, 50% poverty, and central bank reserves at -$12 billion. Milei acted fast. He cut government ministries, removed 50,000 unnecessary jobs, and stopped wasteful spending. In just six months, he balanced the budget for the first time in 113 years, reduced poverty to 46%, and brought inflation under control. His secret? Fiscal discipline and clear communication. Milei focused on freedom, cut government waste, and inspired trust with his bold actions. His leadership shows that honesty and courage can turn even the worst crises around.
