Chavez' daughters in Argentina (and wealth)

http://www.eldiarionoticias.com.ar/nota/63145/las-hijas-de-chavez-habrian-aterrizado-en-argentina.html#.Uwp1ZN8o7nJ

Reporting in various Spanish language sources, Chavez daughters take private jet to Argentina. (Fleeing?)


That's interesting in itself but the article also talks about the riches Chavez accumulated during his rule.


Chavez left his family, airplanes, ranches and luxury cars. WIll Argentina be the refuge of his family? A fleet of planes acquired by PDVSA, hundreds of thousands of hectares in ranches throughout Venezuela, luxury cars, and billions of dollars Chavez left for his family.

The Chavez family went from having a small finca of 3 hectares in Barinas to 450,000 in 17 ranches, at a value of US400,000 to 700,000 each.

Article talks about the air planes and cars the family owns and lavish spending in other countries.

Chávez le dejó a su familia Aviones, campos y autos de lujo. Será Argentina, refugio de su familia, como la de Pablo Escobar Gavigria? Una flota de aviones adquirida por PDVSA, cientos de miles de hectáreas en campos por todo Venezuela, autos de lujo y miles de millones de dólares conformarían parte de la herencia que dejó Hugo Chávez a su familia.

En efecto, la familia Chávez pasó de tener una humilde finca de tres hectáreas en Barinas a poseer 450.000 repartidas en 17 fincas, con costos que van de US$ 400.000 a US$ 700.000 cada una.


Entre ellas se destaca La Malagueña, con más de 50.000 hectáreas, a un costo de 380.000 dólares. La hacienda de la familia, La Chavera, pasó de tener 80 hectáreas hace cinco años a 320 hectáreas hoy. Las fincas tienen carreteras propias y para transportarse a la familia les gustan las Hummer, de las cuales tienen 10, a un precio de 70.000 dólares cada una.
