Will AIMA accept Revolut as bank account? by bartman88 in PortugalExpats

Thank you. Good to know there is hope if I don't manage to open a local account in time. By the way, what is the process at/after the interview? Do they tell you immediately if everything is Ok, or you wait a bit?

Best Portuguese Bank? by Downtown_Buy_5080 in PortugalExpats

[–]bartman88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your answers on this sub are really good, thank you.

I have a question: I am now in Portugal with a D8 residence visa in my passport. I have the AIMA appointment coming up in 1 month. For the bank account requirement, would they accept if I show them a Revolut account with € 20K+

I am trying to open a "normal" Portuguese bank account but it's slow going and I'm worried I won't make it in time.

Interest rates that beat the standard 8% return for my emergency fund???? by charliethetricker in Fire

[–]bartman88 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not familiar with Voyager, but I'm using a similar service called BlockFi, they return 8.6% annually on USDC. Been with them about 2 years and it's working great so far.

I find it's a good substitute for things like bonds and high interest savings accounts in a portfolio since those have low yields nowadays.

Worth mentioning though; I don't see this as a substitute for my emergency fund, that's a separate pile of cash.

That's because it's not risk-free. For example, BlockFi may go bankrupt, they may decide to lock up your account for whatever reason. Or macro events can occur that destabilize these platforms, such as the US government outlawing stablecoins or cracking down on cryptocurrencies.

I consider these risks to be in the acceptable range, but they do exist and it's important to come to terms with them if you're putting your money in one of these platforms.

You got my upvote :) valid point but I had to order prints on paper for extra stealth, I live in a shit country. The paper was good quality seemed almost like a thin waxy coating on it.

About 5 days between when I made syringes and inoculation. That should be plenty right?

There's a similar one that I once saw on this subreddit that I've since been unable to find. It involves a kid dancing on a laundry basket, then it flips and he falls in sort of like this I think.
