  1.  @leonelgaldinomonteiro4783  Yeah, I was gonna ask "How's your German" haha.

  2.  @leonelgaldinomonteiro4783  Yeah I have no problem with it at all. I actually speak German myself. There are a lot of Germans in Paraguay, the BBC did not lie to you.

  3.  @mobileandroid5299  You can throw away the passport, or not renew it (my plan) but you cannot renounce it. So why add that hassle to your nomad life. Wealth tax forever, whee! Kircher forever, whee!

  4. I like KLM business class because you get that little house full of Dutch hooch. I have a little collection of them. Unfortunately they partner with Delta in the US. Flying Delta through Hartsfield Airport is a double whammy of awful.

  5. Let's face it, an electorate that can choke up a Joe Biden is not in a healthy place. Especially after a Donald Trump, its a mess and reminds me of my home country. Some finance types I know like Yellen because they feel they can predict what she is going to do, I personally have doubts that it matters that much. I am doing the St. Lucia thing right now, and getting a Schengen passport by descent so I won't get locked off the continent every time a new flu rolls around. Sorry Andrew, I am not rich enough to hire you to do it or I would. I recommend your page often.

  6. Kids do play outside in the US. I see some right now, and I live in a large urban area.

  7.  @multifacetedshaye6657  I live in the DC burbs, they are outside constantly.

  8. Yes, sorry i didn't see this but it is much improved. I wonder what he did with that low round topped door. No, I am not a stalker, I am just into design.

  9. I have given up reading people's reports on subjective things, such as the top 10 of just about anything. It has been very refreshing.

  10.  @sortathesame8701  I think she will keep him around for 2 years, so she can be president for 10 (current legal max)

  11.  @panaceiasuberes6464  I mean they don't even really run away all that often. They just sit at the trough. But this is the difference between crony capitalism and capitalism.

  12. ​ @JamesSmith-qv9qo  Its true! Miami is not my personal jam (but I'm warming to Florida!) however I never have to rent a hotel room when there. I can always find a friend or family member with an empty condo.

  13.  @georgerivera9220  The US permits multiple passports, as does Israel. In fact about 10% of Israelis are dual nationals. There are many Americans volunteering in the IDF right now. There are members of past and current US governments (including elected officials) who are dual nationals. The list is Israeli-American dual nationals is really, really long and has been so since the founding of Israel (Golda Meir was an American Israeli for instance). Good luck getting the IRS off of your back by just picking up an Israeli passport or joining the IDF. Every Jew in America would do this immediately, LOL. I might even convert myself.

  14. Or threatening maybe. Let's see if it matters to Albany.

  15.  @bossthefluff  Suriname, Dutch, Guyana, English. Neither is a romance language.

  16.  @bossthefluff  Belize, English. There may be more.

  17.  @PauloGaetathe_original  And I live in America, OMG! Even worse! How dare anyone from Argentina express an opinion or offer advice on a place they have visited 1000x over the last 35 years! I shall duct tape my fingers together right now in penance and maybe fast for a week or two. I reckon Lisa Lyons is from North America somewhere, the Paraguayan lifestyle is something she should see before she pulls the figurative trigger.

  18.  @JamesSmith-qv9qo  Its because we are just too sexy! No, I think its really because Argentina is like the USA of the South in some ways. Its a loud country whose problems spill out onto its neighbors. In spite of our extreme corruption and terrible government we keep swinging for the fences, and this annoys people. But Paraguay really has very little moral high ground (read its history, its amazing haha), its just that nobody knows its there until they read a sales brochure for cheap citizenship abroad. if saying that makes me a very bad lady so be it. It is not the "1.5" world" country Nomad Capitalist talks about.

  19. I recently drove across the Dutch German border at about 110km/h - obviously waiting to press on the gas for real after reaching Germany. There was a spot where they could have asked me to stop but they didn't and it didn't look like it was really ever open. But be careful, Europe is going crazy right now.

  20. Don't worry, we're printing plenty, night and day the presses never stop =)

  21.  @jakefallon2335  Its a joke with the boringness of a Vancouver or Toronto, LOL.

  22.  @notthatyouasked6656  I looked it up. "April 1993 to March 1994 US Passports had a green cover to honor Benjamin Franklin and the 200th anniversary of the US Consular Service." I am not old enough to have seen pre-1960s green passports in use.

  23. Spain? Sorry, had to say it =)

  24.  @rajshreyashadhav3052  USA. We are also about to get a bunch of carbon based taxation I bet, so the breathing tax is a growth market here.

  25.  @Stromen  I have met so many Swedes, Danes and Norwegians who say the same thing - they learned English via video games. Kids, remember this when your mom tells you to get off the computer and go outside. You are not engaging in virtual warfare with your friends and wasting time, you are mastering English, the international language of business and commerce =)

  26. Havre de Grace? Maryland is the California of the East, and I must have missed the nice part of the town, I was there not long ago! Seemed historically rough.

  27. As far as I know Chile has absolutely insane residency requirements that go along with their permanent and temporary residency permits. Stuff like be in Chile for at least half the year, every year, basically forever until they give you full citizenship which may be never. And Chileans are organized and love enforcing their laws, they will know if you are sneaking out. Its a nice country but I don't think it counts as one that makes it easy to go live there. I believe they are writing a new constitution right now, who knows what nonsense they will stuff into it before they are done. Might be worth waiting to see.

  28.  @pattimurphy5151  My point was that no, its not, there is no one safe place. Not even passport holders and permanent residents can enter the country right now. The borders are shut. Not even Uruguayans (I am from Argentina, not Uruguay) who are abroad can enter the country. And the Minister of the Interior is running around arresting people for "gathering" without a very firm definition of what that might be. Uruguay is nice and I like it, but it has a better reputation amongst Americans than maybe it deserves. It is also expensive for what you get, and it is developing a nasty case of SJW, but that is another story.

  29. With several outfit changes!

  30. Ah Argentina, the country that is literally a hot mess. If you like to be shaken down, robbed and mugged by your own government (oh and then locked in your house for an eternal quarantine) I recommend you Argentina! I am from Mendoza, its great to visit & my(American) husband loves it. But i don't recommend that you take up residence there or "invest" in any significant way.

  31. Politics is what it is, a dirty but necessary business. It is the news that is really toxic. People literally "wake and bake" on the US media, and the media loves it because angry people consume more news. So they exist to keep the rage going. Be informed, but turn off the TV. You can be aware of current events without the talking heads.

  32. Will I be opening dollar accounts in these countries? Am i the only one thinking that inflation is coming?

  33. Everyone in Argentina goes to Colombia to get new silicone body parts and various other tweaks. I have heard great things.

  34.  @MJ98774  Cheers. I actually just found this dude and I cant stop watching. My wife is from Argentina, she has really good radar for when a shitshow will go from ok to nokay, and shes less jazzed on her brand new US passport by the day. We aren't rich, but were comfortable, would like to find a couple boltholes to live without all the BS and hysteria.

  35.  @rbotlion  We didn't start printing the money in 2020 LOL. Its been going on for much longer than that.

  36. No, nobody ever does that, ever. Especially not in Central or South America. Never happens.

  37. Not everyone loves where they are from. Argentina sucks! I am glad to have it in my rear view mirror, even if it was to get a US Passport.

  38. @Deborah Hearne Yeah and in pure democracy it just takes 51%. If you confuse things with a parliamentary style government it can actually be much lower. Democracy can only be what people think it is ("free!") when it comes with strong individual rights. Otherwise its just mob rule.

  39. In 5 years I can see Texas blue, unfortunately. That fake Mexican Beto came within 2-3 points of Cruz in the last senate race. It makes me sad to see.

  40.  @qjtvaddict  That had nothing to do with his election against Beto.

  41.  @donh5794  Hopefully he leaves for the Whitehouse in 2024.

  42. Part of the year would be fine with me. Unless you are French its a good place for the wealthy.

  43. @Pessy's ASMR Which really bugs me! I want no legal association with a country that shoots itself in the leg over and over. And try renewing a passport or doing your legally required voting, the Argentine embassies are slower and more corrupt than the country itself which is really saying something. I love my family but Argentina, the way it is run, makes me vomit. If Germans could get second passports tons of them would renounce. I know at least 20 who are waiting for the crazy new government to ease that restriction - its a big ask to have to renounce before you can legally nail down a new travel document. I told them when they renounce their German passports I will become a German man, because part of the new passport plan is you can pick you gender. I can't wait, Hans Schmidt here I come. Or maybe Wolfgang? with a von? That always sounds classy.

  44. OMG his English. I am full of envy.

  45. More dog poop than Amsterdam? I thought that was the poop capital of Earth. So gross.

  46.  Mehedi Hasan  Gringos love Uruguay and parts of Argentina (BsAs). Of the two I'd go for Uruguay, but its not a cheap tax haven at all if you want a decent quality of life. Of course if you are willing to live in a cardboard box then really anywhere (with whatever climate you prefer) works.

  47.  @toddjohnsen7996  I would be less than 100% confident in Argentine engineering, let them stick to lawyering. I get nervous near that big hydrodam near Malargue, you know its coming down someday with a bang. =)

  48. I like having a car, I like to go where I want to go when I want to go there. But fancy cars are not my thing.

  49. We said this in VA and now look at us.

  50.  @VwapTrader  The language barrier is only permanent if you let it be permanent. I had a 6 month long headache when moving to the US but my English is fine now. It will never be perfect, but it works and that is all you really need! The hardest part is to just go for it and not worry about your mistakes. Go beat up some Mexicans with awful Spanish for 3-6 months and one day it won't be so bad. Or anyway that is how it was with my English. Mexicans are exceptionally friendly in my experience.
