It’s a win win, one less dirty liberal and I have funds to start over somewhere else.
I would sell mine if I can get EU citizenship.
Otherwise I’d be stuck in some airport and that ain’t fun
When I was a kid, I was somewhat envious of Tom Hanks’ character in The Terminal. Rewatching it as an adult hits different after spending a lot more time in airports since then.
Try to get stuck at Changi airport at least.
Several EU countries feature golden visas. Portugal, Malta, for example. As long as you live there for a minimum amount of time.
The UK will give you free citizenship if you’re considered very useful. A friend of mine is an epidemiologist, and they almost literally threw British citizenship at her. She said that nobody at the group ceremony spoke English.
Individual investors must make a minimum contribution of €600,000
Yea Imma stop you right there.
I don’t even have $6000, let alone 2 extra digits.
The joke of the post was the government paying you 5,000,000 for your U.S. citizenship. So you’d have over 4 million U.S. dollars left after doing such a trade and paying 600,000 euros for a citizenship somewhere. I forget the conversion right now. You’d still be set for life.
With $5 million dollars I assume I’d be able to get a visa and then citizenship almost anywhere. Can’t find a job within 90 days? Damn, maybe just start a business. What do you do? For me I’d go IT consultant company, and put my annual pay as the minimum wage required to maintain a citizenship. I could buy an office, a house, pay myself $50,000 a year for 20 years and still have 3 million left likely. Not to mention if you actually make any money. Could be anything really. Marketing, bakery, street food vendor. I’m sure you can make it work with 5m.
You can stick the 3 million in a 5% interest savings and make $150,000 a year to live off of. Living off 200k a year and never touching your principle I would hopefully be able to make work in most of the world.
I’m just some pleb with depression. No EU country would want me. The best I could hope for is maybe political asylum, but the US is still considered a democracy so they aren’t gonna take my application seriously.
My wife and I wondered why they just don’t offer people a million per household member to leave the country. Maybe help with citizenship paperwork to other countries.
How long does it take to become a US citizen? That determines how often you can sell your citizenship and restart the process. Imagine getting 5 million every year or two.
Naturalized citizen here originally from Poland. It took 6 years waiting to be eligible to apply for green card, another 2 to actually get a green card, then another 5 years of living in the states to be able to apply for citizenship. So total of 13 years. Granted Poland was in a different political climate 25 years ago and it was difficult to ever get into the US so it really depends on “country of origin”.
If you run the citizenship cycle every 13 years, and you get paid 5 million every time, that’s still about 32 k$ per month, which is not bad. It takes a very long time, but it should be worth it.
Wish granted. Someone bought your citizenship. You have 30 minutes to vacate the country.
Funds unfortunately were funneled into Trump
slush fundpresidential library fund so you won’t get a penny. Sorry about thatIf that happens, I will sell my citizenship and give you a hundred thousand dollars of it.
Rich foreigners can already get an EB-5 greencard if they invest 500K.
800K. I think you’re thinking of E2, which has no path to permanent residency.
I thought you were a leftist.
Leftism is when you don’t have any money.
That’s not true George Soros is a billionaire and he’s the head leftist.
Or is he the left headist? I always forget.
I got $3.50
Tree fitty? Damn you Loch Ness monster!
I gave him a dolla
This is unironically something I would consider. I would sell me and my family’s citizenship for 20 mil and go live either in Mexico or Spain. I have family in both of those so it would be nice to see them more often.
Consider? That shits a done fucking deal for me if it’s on the table
Unfortunately we can’t because we are the product. Exploitable people.
I was going to say, they want to be the ones who choose who can enter…
and who can leave…
Fuck yeah. 2 million is the amount I need to live a comfortable life off the interest. 20 million gives me 800k a year in distributions to safely maintain the fund. We’d live like damn hell ass kings!
That $5 million isn’t for you
But I want it
Ok, I will pass this on to them.
Thank you. Oh, tell trump I like his… that time he was in the truck. You know, talk me up.
Tell him I’ll sell mine $3m.
Don’t ruin this for me!
Fine. I’ll only take $4m and I’ll give you $1m. So greedy.
…can I have $1 million?
Catch is “somewhere else” wants 6 million to make you a citizen.
Sweet! I’m gonna have 11 million bucks!
I don’t think he has that authority, but he’d do it anyway. Except he wouldn’t, because fuck you.
Doubt. If anyone is gonna profit off of his half baked idea then it’ll be him, no one else
I’d suspect the five million ain’t going to be worth much after Trump is done.
Oh that’s why trump wants his face on the 100 dollar bill, since he knows he’s making it worthless anyway
Like everything else he puts his name on.
Exchange it quick and get out.
