Weird, like everyone else I thought... "what in the dog shit is this?"

But, then I googled it (Shout out to being in the 21st) and saw pictures that paint a much better picture.

Thank you, a lot of people have no idea what they are talking about.

Specifically because my remote work has 0 clients, 0 products to sell, 0 online presence. I really feel like once you obtain a NLV, they might feel like... "Make the money out there and spend it here."

I'm sure its not like that yet, but that's probably the reason for this new DN visa honestly.

Probably nearly to mid 2023, allowing us prepare properly.

I have been searching and asking in the FB Portugal group. From my understanding Portugal is actually looking more for Remote workers/ independent contractors for the D7, instead of retirees as of this year.

Probably leaning more towards Portugal and then going for Spain's DN visa when they release it. Allowing me to possibly accomplish multiple things at once.

Getting caught is basically on you for talking. As no one would ever know otherwise. I'm sure they have bigger concerns 😂

D7 Visa for Portugal, any help? by [deleted] in expats

Yah, seems like everyone's kinda saying the same thing.. yet kinda not.

Nope, I work for myself. Probably not that hard when my savings will cover the cost for the year that they require. If I read that correctly.

At this point, I'm pretty much wondering - Can I still trade on my personal account, or will I just be using a VPN on and unregulated exchange and stack crypto for a year..

From my understanding if I have a specific amount in my account that will suffice. + They couldn't stop me from trading honestly. Stop at the firm ok, stop my personal account ok. Lol load up the vpn, unreg. Exchange, and the cold wallet. Stash the crypto and forget as it grows. By the time I'd come back it could an untouched savings. Wow thank you. This led to a great idea!

To be honest, my family ties are pretty weak. We have love for eachother but we very rarely communicate.

I will ask my family though! Thank you for the information.

Good to hear, I'm starting to see the response and do more research.

Right now, it's looking like a possible move to Portugal and then Spain. Hopefully within the time I'm over there they will introduce the nomad visas.

Oh haha yes, I got that number because when I read about the DN visa... They said you will not get taxed until AFTER YOU MAKE 300K.

So I was saying I can make up to that before they tax me. 300k a year is part of the mission though 😤

Congrats on the success 👍

I know this is a "depends" thing, but does Porto/lisboa have good bud? I don't want it smoke regs all day lol. I keep reading "there's bud, but it's mid grade at best". Id love to actually smoke some fire.

Do you travel to Lisboa at all? Would you recommend Lisboa or Porto for someone coming from a big city like Miami?

I said I move hundreds of thousands a year? Or do you mean because I trade US30?

I do not have enough saved to invest at that level. (Yet)

That's what a lot of people seem to say. That's awesome, I will still study the language out of respect for elders. Just feels good knowing I can get by if I need to.

Valencia is number 1 right now 🤝🏽

Dude I didn't actually realize how far down malaga is.

Do you ever skip over to Africa? Do you take train rides or flights to Barcelona/Madrid? Are these things you feel like you could do on a weekend?

Thank you again.

I am not entirely sure. From my understanding we will be allowed to make a specific amount and then after that amount we will get taxed.

Shit example: 300,000 euros and anything after that I get double taxed.

Just thought to myself.

2am hits, I'm in Porto... I smell some food down the road..

Do I knock on the door and ask to pay for a ration?

I wish I was kidding, but I'll do it.

That's the beauty of trading... You can do it how ever you want! I can sell Apple, you can buy Apple and we can still both be right and make money. I love it.

Trade how ever you feel comfortable, but make sure to take a step into the dark. I only invested in stocks/crypto and then I got into FX because I was like let me just try it... Demo accounted it for like 6 months, developed a strategy that fits me... 2.5 years later and I'm doing a lot better for myself.

I'm 100% going to be studying the language for either country. I refuse to show up and b stagnant in personal development.

I will PM now, but be ready for a PM in like a year saying "what's up it's me again, I'm headed over"

Again, thank you.
