as long as you stay in germany (aside from vacations abroad) it does count. dont receive social welfare and you are golden

@djminikin gewerbesteuer is from the business, your personal income tax is from the salary you will pay yourself. you will have to calculate both taxes, but in general it is cheaper to run a business and pay twice than to cash in everthing as salary.

first it depends on the other country. if the new home is ok, then chances are high germany will not bat an eye in the future. topic is no brainer if your new citizenship is from another EU member or Switzerland; you may gather all 27 (or whatever number it is) citizenships :D

@BlaowVEVO waving a gun will not protect any free speech. as you cannot enter a court room armed you cannot prevent a trial against you :p

what is your problem ? prove you are descended AND that the ancestor did not renounce prior to your birth and you are golden in most cases.

only works if she did not renounce prior to her giving birth to you. if she was german citizen by the time still: yep you are german. germany accepts ius solis so you are entitled to keep your US citizenship anyway.

@MrEdrftgyuji elaborate please :) you keep everything from before marriage and also any inheritance during time of marriage count as if "personal asset prior to marriage". any gains will be split on divorce, but that counts on both sides and usually the gains were used for upkeep of the life together, so there is not much to split. besides: if you are divorced you are obliged to care for yourself

social welfare recipients are not entitled to german citizenship, period. you'll never solve the "live some years out of our own pocket" barrier

@mikefish8226 not going to happen, we would vote them out at next opportunity besides the liberal part of colation would not agree, so the idea would be dead in the water from scratch
