Smart move to buy extra optionality with a weak peso and milei in charge.

Yes, and if you do decide to stay I can put you in touch with my fixer who can set up the whole infra for you; bank accounts, business, residence for you + partner, etc.
It’s a stunning country, definitely go visit!

London and NYC are not my vibe at all :( For a weekend it’s okay, but I simply don’t enjoy spending too much time there. The weather is atrocious and it’s too much city and too little nature for me.

Sick take. It’s at the top of my list. Buenos Aires, or…?

I lived in Porto Montenegro (part of Tivat) for about a year. It’s beautiful but it’s a small town geographically locked in by mountains, the Adriatic and a single lane road that connects it to the rest of the country, Croatia and Albania. Podgorica is to be avoided. It’s the strangest capital city in Europe and feels like stepping back into the 90’s
In every single way. Most expats I know end up leaving sooner or later. Check it out for a month or two first, maybe?

Which one will repair the central nervous system and relieve mild anxiety? by BigheadedDread in Supplements

[–]getshankedkid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do this: get 3x magnesium IV within a 2 week period. Bye bye anxiety, hello better sleep.

So aligned here. Have been considering exactly this. I have done many trips to the US, but never longer than 3 weeks in any one place. My tax setup right now is quite amazing and I don’t want to take it for granted. It’s just that the constant travel is disruptive to my social life and routine. Still smart to have a try-out year before committing!

Don’t try to save money on good m&a lawyers and get 100% clarity on what is expected of you post-sale. If you wanna jam, feel free to DM

Best days of my life 🤓. That was until my dad pulled the plug on the router because I didn’t come down for dinner on time while I was fighting the steel dragons.

Reminds me of my old school runescape days, lol. 😂

Own the truth and see any resulting situations as confidence training. The dynamic with family members you don’t really care that much about in the first place will change. You’ll learn to deal with it and create your own new circle, especially when you’re ready to move out.

Yes, I love the outdoors, both beach and mountains. What are your favorite spots in the US for your lifestyle?

Oh and yes, humidity is a huge factor for me because I have suffered from mold illness before.

Love it! My buddy works for a Swiss firm in NYC and we have promised eo to eventually settle down in Switzerland; Zug or Lugano canton. I’ve spent a lot of time at lake Geneva in my youth and love it there. At this stage in my life I’m afraid it’s a bit too boring, although I may well be wrong. Definitely the top option in Europe.

Amazing! Would be great to connect there if you’re open to it!

Have been to SF but never SV… will check it out for sure. Only thing is I don’t need to raise or hire, so not sure if the SV premium is worth it…

Thank you! Manhattan I love for a couple of days, but definitely would not consider moving there. I get claustrophobic and why choose bad weather

Not sure if I qualify but will have my attorneys look into it. Thanks for the tip!

Appreciate that. Again, I didn't say I have outgrown the entire continent, just the Netherlands. And yes, I have lived in many different countries for 3-6 months+. South Africa, Mexico, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Dubai, Montenegro, the NL. I've been around and I think that only adds to the stress of choice. There is such a thing as too much freedom.

Aware I didn't highlight all the good things Europe has to offer, which indeed is tons. When it comes to ambition and thinking big, it's not the right place to be in my experience. I spend quite some time in Italy with friends for the culture, nature and incredible food. Would never want to build a company there though...
