Six months later, the family settled in Argentina.[1] Between 6 and 13 years old, Neustadt was raised as a "ward" in Catholic boarding schools. After his mother died when he was 13 he moved with his father, who later expelled him from the house.[2]

At 14 years old, he joined the Editorial Haynes, owner of the newspaper El Mundo. He worked as a sportswriter and directed Racing magazine.[1]

He died in Martinez, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
