Obviously this is just one opinion from an Argentinian but I think there are only two lessons. The other economic analysis (GDP growth) are explained because the country came from a really strong recession (subzero situation), and the commodities rocketed sky-high while the agricultural sector improved a lot in terms of efficiency. The rest of things remains the same: an hyper-corrupt country, without justice (except when the government pushes for specific cases), with a lot of poor people and people living of social assistance handled by government lords in change of favors (votes).

Lessons for other countries:

- You can renegotiate your foreign obligations (what is happening in Greece). The default is not the end of the game.

- Stay away from IMF bureaucrats
