Me and my wife are Filipinos. I just acquired my US citizenship about 4 years ago but am planning to get a dual citizenship. Semi-retiring in the Philippines but with a comfortable life is our goal. We’ve already missed a lot of relatives’ and friends’ weddings, baptisms, birthdays, and fiestas not to mention all the occasions. Don’t want to do it when we get older because all we know would be old or dead.(hope not) But any hel would be great especially if you could add the living expenses today.
So, would that 1 million bucks just the initial investment or would that be a sustainable amount for at least a year. I know that it might have been just thrown out there as pertaining to “big bucks” but it might be valid.

How much business will you lose for having linux instead of Microsoft. Does in the Philippines use linux for their cafe? How many people are getting caught for pirated software and what is the fine? Thanks.
