man with the economy the way it is and with all those competing big countries like usa china japan russia and europe where standards of living have skyrocketed, i have to say it is probably gonna be more important and smarter to be able to secure some residence or retirement hut in a small third world country think about it: even in china and russia the big cities are getting so damn expensive to live in now. russia has most expensive city in world in moscow. and europe is too damn expensive all the time i think a smart investment for the future is to look for a third world country that u can live a quite life in should things get really bad or money gets tight. i think having dual citizenship for most americans will be at a premium. i would not be surprised if some americans marry from places in latin america or asia or middle east just to be able to take residence there as a safety net what u guys think?
Isn't Canada a nice place to live in? Not sure how their economy is doing, but don't they have like free medical care or something like that?
I have quite a few friends who are dual citizens (Canada/USA), but I think you have to either be born into it or marry into it.
I just gained my Irish Citizenship right before Christmas. I'm about to send off for the Irish Passport. If your Grandparents came over from Ireland, you are eligible- Its just a bunch of paper work and gathering certified copies of stuff. Other countries do the same thing, I believe Italy as well. Do it while its available if you can (you don't have to denounce your US citizenship incase you are worried). I'll always be a Texan first no matter what though.
the united states will let you have dual citizenships with certain "friendly" countries. i forget which one, but i'm sure russia and china aren't one of them.
Yea . . I wonder where is the list Cause I have heard of folx getting dual citizenships in some african nations recently Rocket River
if australia ever goes to the dogs...i'll just go over to my other home...NEW ZEALAND absolutely beautiful country with sweeping scenery...
depends on the country. curiously, you can't have spanish and us dual citizenship. i would love to have dual citizenship in ireland, but i'm about a generation "too american."
Yes, because spain does not recognize dual citizenship. Neither does Germany, for that matter - although I am exempt from the rule. The US is quite liberal about it (obviously, Iranian duel citizenship might raise eyebrows) - ergo, it's usually the other country that has the rules.
ahhh...i have a friend from spain, and i thought i understood him to say that the US doesn't recognize dual citizenship with spain...not the other way around. thanks.
No matter where you live, it will be hard for some time. I have 3 citizenships and they are all difficult places to live
