Fake quotes are not a sign of wit. You're better at establishing mere lists of disgusting nasty places in Rio where to fuk cheap skanky nightmare prostitutes.
You should stay in your register.

Culturally also, I find FSU more enthralling and various than Brasil. The cultural heritage in this part of the world is literally extraordinary. A recent touristic trip to Georgia cemented my opinion :http://www.internationalsexguide.inf...7&postcount=68, and I still have dozens of enthralling places to discover. Mongering is not the only purpose of my trips to FSU, and it wasn't either for the 15 or so years I travelled throughout Brasil.
Anyhow, just a tip : you could become smarter by broadening your horizons instead of stagnate in mass-prostitution meccas. Much further, beyond the frontiers of the "sex tourist map", far to the few still untapped vahallas which for me outdo Brasil any day. But this requires balls, open mind and sense of adventure, three things that you obviously lack of.
BTW being Macunaima's ass licker with sarcasm attempts towards a brasilian ex GF of mine that you've never met is nor a sign of wit, and nor a sign of intelligence.
It only shows that you're a real clown.

By dual citizenship, do you mean Brasilian and another citizenship or any 2?
I have or rather had 2 citizenships, one passport expired about 12 years ago and never bothered to renew it (a european citizenship), I could renew it if I wanted to but I don't need it at this time. If I ever feel the need to live in Europe which at this time is quite unlikely as there other areas that I find more interesting and attractive, I may renew it but for now, my current citizenship is more than enough. At this time, I would be quite keen on obtaining that Brasilian citizenship in a few years, so we'll see. What exactly would you like to know about dual citizenship? I know that in the US, it's not allowed (correct me if that has been changed)?

Posts: 2278Dual Citizenship - Pros and Cons
Anyone who has formally obtained dual citizenship care to offer their opinion on the pros and cons, including obtaining? No academics, "I thinkers" or "my buddy ..." please. I really would like to hear from someone who has been there, done that and has the T-shirt. Thanks!

In many cases you need to show income in Brasil.
The bureaucracy here is unbelievable.

Posts: 421Fiador
As per my limited understanding, fiador is pretty much liable of anything he co-signs for. Thus, having a property, I would never ever co-sign anything not even for my brother.
Normally this fiador business works in a way that parents co-sign an apartment to their own children etc.
Anyway, good luck finding one. I never did, even my father in law didn't want to be my fiador way back...

Posts: 2345If I were renting or buying a building for serious business purposes in Rio, I would be crazy to rely on the letter of the law alone. A Brasilian partner ( preferably a carioca) is one of the best assurances, from common-sense knowledge of how Brasil works and also from my limited knowledge of friends' experiences.
I am not just talking about bribes, which are a standard part of the infrastructure, but the fact that the system is more resistant to foreigners.
For instance, someone I knew opens a restaurant. Everything goes fine. They wait until the restaurant is making some money. Then they (the authorities) 'discover' some obscure infraction to do with a water pipe or proposed water pipe running under the building. That he will be responsible for financially.
This type of hassle, repeated, is quite sufficient to put someone out of business. It is hardly the coincidence it appears to be.
I also know people from outside of Brasil that have successfully set up business. They had a) friends in high places, b) a lot of money to start with, c) good networking skills with the community as well as a strong fighting spirit.
