Hey, I’m Alex. 40+ countries. Multiple visa systems. A few citizenship and residency processes too. Interested in the mechanics of global mobility… and critiquing cultural quality & value. Mostly jumping into conversations rather than starting them. Find me in the replies.

@Getinwithgame And arranging place close to hers, to go back to hers?

Girls don’t trust themselves. They know that if they come back to your place, they’ll probably end up having sex with you. That’s exactly why they often refuse to come in. It’s not that they don’t like you. It’s not that they’re not attracted. [Thread]

@MurrayHillGuy1 If anyone is missing that, they’re retarded come on.

I’m not a pickup artist by any means but this is just reality.. If a girl is into you, it will be SO obvious Walking on the street or in the bar… Looking over multiple times Holding eye contact way too long Standing way too close for no reason If you don’t go say hi at that point that’s on you ESPECIALLY WHEN ITS NICE OUT… go get laid and fall in love, it’s never been easier!!

@LatinaCasanova From Coachella or about it?

If she posts a story about Coachella, she's not the one

@Teruhiko_Ishii How’s Kobe, near Sumiyoshi>>>Settsu?

大阪は家賃安いって聞いてどんなもんか試しに調べてみたら、大阪市内でも1LDK8万で住めるんだな。都内どころか下手すりゃ市川船橋辺りより安いまである。。

@motherof2wolves @scaling_shields Started as referrals from my network which is mostly Latin America and some Southern Europe. A couple immigration attorneys and couple real estate agents have funneled in some clients.

@NomadFieldOps @scaling_shields How did you advertise your business?

i found a "failing" cafe in marbella last week making €400,000 a year the owner laughed when i asked how she stays open "the coffee is just a legal loophole" 4 tables. 3 customers in an hour. i assumed they were closing down. went back a week later. same scene. i told her i was surprised the place was still open "the coffee isnt the business" i asked what she meant "200 remote founders pay me €60 a month to use this cafe as their registered business address. companies house. tax filings. business bank accounts. mail." "since when is a cafe a registered address?" "since it legally needs to be a real physical premises with someone here during business hours. the cafe is the premises. the service is the business. the coffee is just the reason im legally allowed to run the service." i asked how she got the idea "needed a registered address myself when i started the cafe. realised nobody else had figured it out. put one line on my website. 200 clients later im still here pouring coffee nobody drinks" heres the math: - 200 companies - €60 per month - €144,000 in address fees - additional €256,000 in mail handling, virtual office, scanning, forwarding - 2 hours of admin a day - zero employees - €400,000 a year the cafe loses money every month she doesnt care "the coffee is rent for the business that lives upstairs in my laptop" the storefront isnt the business its the permission slip dead cafe alive business

Good question…short answer is no, I’m not responsible for what a company does just because they use the address. It’s the same model coworking spaces and virtual offices use. Each company is its own legal entity. I do collect ID, so I can show who’s behind the business (if something is precarious or alleged, legally speaking), but Law enforcement contacts the business itself. And obviously look for red flags, like scammy industries, weird behavior or opening like 10 LLC’s at once.

@NomadFieldOps @scaling_shields Serious question - does that mean you're responsible for what "happens" at the business address? What if a business does something illegal under the address you handle?

🇯🇵Just a nice quiet peaceful spring day in Japan. I love it.

@tiagopita This is so on-point. Extra value creation or innovation, NEVER

@VladimirPiskala That’s actually smart. Really damages business.

@LuisGas64296020 @imidaily Local housing crisis, look into time frames for building permits for new builds and rehabs. Foreigners are the least of the systemic problems there. You’re a bot anyways, but the comment lives on.

@NomadFieldOps @imidaily Having the qualities to be a worlds best place and decided to make residents give tax breaks to non residents to come to play with local housing market untill became the most severe housing crisis of all OECD..

🇵🇹Portugal in 2021: "Invest EUR 500k, naturalize in 5 years" 🇵🇹 in 2025: "We took 4 years to process your application. We put golden visa investors at the back of the line for ideological reasons. But don't worry, we'll count your wait time toward your naturalization timeline." 🇵🇹 in 2026: "We changed the law, so now you'll only be eligible for naturalization in 2035, and the time spent waiting won't count after all. Oh, and the processing time for naturalization is itself another 3 years. So you can look forward to a Portuguese passport in 2038, 17 years after you invested. Unless, of course, we change something else by then. Anyway, thanks for the half a million euros."

@livevitaeuk @MyLatinLife So we can pick up dozens of rotten mangoes and leaves constantly? With flies to boot.

@MyLatinLife These gringos cut down the trees and automatically require AC 24/7. Plant mangoes around your property. Palm trees dont cut it.

You want to be at 1200+ metres. 500 metres above sea level isn't enough. 1200+ metres MÍNIMO. The coffee zone.

@retireinarg This account just posts incorrect or exaggerated content and data to start discussions and rage bait people. The pattern has been established. Don’t listen to this guy.

🇦🇷 Just ran the April numbers: A single person can live comfortably in Córdoba for $850/month including rent. That's 70% less than Medellín ($2,800), 75% less than Lisbon ($3,400), 80% less than Miami ($4,200). Same café culture. Better wine. Actual seasons. Healthcare that won't bankrupt you. The arbitrage isn't just real — it's criminal.

@nomadcapitalist They should be taken to international court and class action suits to follow. Appalling, laughing stock of a fake first world country.

BREAKING: Portugal just changed the rules. Again. Parliament approved sweeping amendments to the Nationality Law. The bill is now on the President's desk. What's changing: 7 years for EU and CPLP nationals (up from 5). 🌍 10 years for everyone else. Doubled. This is the rule that will affect most golden visa applicants. ⏱ The clock now starts when your permit is issued, not when you applied. With AIMA backlogs hitting 39 months, that's years of waiting that no longer count. The President has 20 days to promulgate, veto, or send it to the Constitutional Court. A previous version was struck down in December. This is round two. The uncomfortable truth: the best time to get Portuguese citizenship was years ago, when the $280K real estate route was on the table. The second best is right now, before this law takes effect. Portugal isn't off the table. It's just no longer the best deal in Europe. Austria, Malta, Hungary, all offer better value for new applicants. Clients already in the process: stay the course. Current rules still apply. Clients still considering: the window is closing. Better a few years early than one day too late.

@GenevaInvestor @WorkMJ Agreed. ‘First world’ wrapping paper with a ‘third world’ turd inside.

@WorkMJ This is what happens when you trust Southern European governments. Very much like in South America, the rules constantly change and nothing can be relied on.

The Portugal golden visa scheme is a government scam.

@thealepalombo Recent recipient of 1-year artist visa (permission to work w/ company sponsorship). Done through ‘administrative scrivener’ (immigration attorney).

Japan doesn't tax foreign income for the first 5 years, as long as it's not remitted onshore. Three entry routes worth knowing: 1. Digital Nomad Visa: the easiest. 6 months, won't make you tax resident. 2. Startup Visa: gives you up to 2 years to prepare for a business visa, no capital required upfront. 3. Business Manager Visa: the long-term play, now requiring 30M yen (~$180K) capital in a company. I'm working with a Japanese friend on a full guide, covering not just the legal framework but local perspectives on towns, lifestyle, and what actually works on the ground. Has anyone moved there recently? Questions you want you see answers? Drop them below.

@forgebitz Yet no one giving advice on SPECIFIC roles or positions to look into. Okay….

pivot to cybersecurity we are barely scratching the surface of what is coming

@retireinarg Yeah sorry man, Palermo for 3 bedroom, not happening unless it’s bombed out or with okupas or something.

🇦🇷 A 3-bedroom apartment in Palermo rents for $650-850/month. Same quality unit in Lisbon runs $2,200, Austin $2,400. The gap is still massive even after the 2024-2025 price catch-up. Bureaucracy and erratic service remain real drags but the numbers keep the arbitrage alive.
