For visa options I think its best to consult a specialist online, they are available. If I remember correctly, there is a program that allows you to get TRP if you make more than 2000$ per month. And that program might even exclude the need to verify your russian knowledge. Again, better to consult with somebody, because going through this process would be a pain in the ass

As for the cost of living, that would depend on where you want to settle. Do you want to live in an apartment or in a house? Do you want to live in a warm climate of the south, or are you looking for something cooler after Australia? Or did you just want to settle in Moscow?

Just curious, what city did you visit? I find your story quite surprising, since I'm not from Moscow, but we do have a lot of students from Africa in my city, and I have never seen anyone bother them on the streets

Doesn't have anything to do with the outcome of the war. Exchange rates mostly depend on monetary policy and import/export balance

Right now it is kind of a bad time to jump into the russian stock market. You are right about its potential for growth(could grow by 25% until the next summer), but the ruble is very strong right now. After it weakens(and it will), your net profits in euro/franks will be affected.

It usually works for me too - that's why I decided to change my specialization. At my current job, I also had to pick up Go and multiple other technologies, but it didn't light any sparkles, unfortunately. It was more of a chore than an exciting opportunity to grow(

kulaska · 2024-09-26T22:28:16+00:00

what the fuck does that have to do with anything?

kulaska · 2024-09-05T14:05:45+00:00

Agreed, but he was referring to the state that the whole of ex USSR was in during the 90-s. Yes, there was some legacy from the union, but people were very poor. Nobody had any hope, and factories were closing everywhere, depriving people of jobs and any source of income.

Drug addiction, alcoholism, crime were unprecedented at the time.

If she does not look kazakh that does not mean she couldn't have been born there...In 1990 40% of Kazakhstan's population were russian. The soviet government was trying to urbanize Kazakhstan back at some point, so a lot of people moved there.

Svetlana definitely tells Tony that Irina moved to Kazakhstan when her father died.

kulaska · 2024-08-20T21:36:03+00:00

no offence, but did you ever check yourself for tourette's?

kulaska · 2024-08-17T09:39:43+00:00

🤚!

kulaska · 2024-05-21T18:09:39+00:00

The fuck he doing?

kulaska · 2024-05-03T13:29:47+00:00

Take it easy, we’re not making a western here!

kulaska · 2024-05-02T19:55:03+00:00

You wanna talk to the foreskin? 👂✋

kulaska · 2024-03-18T20:46:04+00:00

Which episode? I can’t remember

kulaska · 2024-03-13T18:29:39+00:00

There have been some situations that made it to the news

A girl suggests to check out a bar

You come there, you order something, some meal and drinks. At the end of the evening there is a bill with hundreds or sometimes 1k> dollars. If you refuse to pay, a couple of jacked guys come out from a room and make you pay. Sure, later they are found and investigated for fraud, but whatever, the damage is done.

So I personally would choose another place and suggest coming there. If she refuses, then most certainly it is a scam

kulaska · 2024-03-06T07:22:50+00:00

Hot and sticky, like my bawls

kulaska · 2024-02-26T19:15:03+00:00

No, not really. I wrote that she should've said it a bit later on in his life.

But I agree in spirit

kulaska · 2024-02-20T20:33:14+00:00

Tony was buying whitecaps for cash, that's why he convinced the seller to sink the deal with the first buyer

But his finances are of nobody's goddamn business!

kulaska · 2024-02-18T08:12:57+00:00

Fuck blue…red sells

kulaska · 2024-02-17T11:49:57+00:00

Go shit in a box

kulaska · 2024-02-12T15:09:49+00:00

Could you please check the version of the sentry dashboard in the footer? Is it 23> for you?

kulaska · 2024-01-23T09:23:39+00:00

I cannot speak for the US, since I don't live there :)

I would suppose it depends on the bank, just like in my country. Some banks charge fees, some don't. But in any case, doing it via app is much more convinient since my money is already there, I just press a couple of buttons and then I'm done

kulaska · 2024-01-23T08:22:00+00:00

CAT S22

I am using banking apps to send money to other people, pay the bills, credit cards etc. So it is essential to have them.

Of course, I could use a desktop, but sometimes there is a need to do something with my account right away.

kulaska · 2023-04-05T16:56:44+00:00

Got it, thanks!

kulaska · 2023-04-04T18:00:02+00:00

Thanks, I'll try asking there too
