Was it worth it?
What made you quit?
Was it worth it? Not only we achieved the impossible and made history worldwide, but never in my life I though I could be any more satisfied with the performance of a government. That was actually a big plus because, like I said on other comments, I started by being certain that we were going to fail, and I only wanted to have the peace of mind that, if asked in a distopic future what I did to prevent it, I could answer "everything, I gave everything". And I did. So it was already worth it from the start, regardless of the result.
I decided to step aside because, first, the main short-term objective had been achieved, second, I realized that there's still needed a deep reform regarding the law that governs the conformation of parties to allow them to be actual institutions and not mere franchises offered for rent. Milei knew that perfectly and made his strategy so that not only he was going to give no money to anyone, but also so that immediately after the elections all ties were cut. He still haves no party of his own, precisely because he distrusts those structures. He is an anarchist of hearth.
Third, and not less important, I had to start over. For 3 years I left my life completely to the side. I'm on my 30's and in no way to sustain a family. I'm thank god not in an bad economical condition, I don't need money, but I can't do anything above that (like, for example, having a family). After all of the craze was over, I watched to my sides and saw many of my friends who had kept on their lives, now, having a wife, sons, a car, a house... dude I felt like if I had come back from war...
