Is that right. Let’s see some names and times

🤔

When I was younger, back in the 60's & 70's, possibly. I actually did contact the New Zealand consulate at that time about a visa for us because a college buddy and I were discussing swapping homes for a while, because he was unhappy in NZ. (The lady at the consulate, upon learning my wife worked for an IT firm, said "oh, we can use her" and then asked what I did. When I said PR, she said "oh, heavens, whatever would we do with you?)

But not today, at my age. The first reason is mostly family, but also friends. I have a support network here and neither the energy or years to build a new one elsewhere. The second is going to sound strange given that U.S. health care in general is so dysfunctional, but I would lose my health benefits. I'm in a unique position for a Yank as a result of going to a work for a small non-profit health care system that was considered Communistic Socialized Medicine at the time and couldn't afford to pay market wages so gave comprehensive benefits for life. Now they are the largest non-governmental prepaid health care delivery system in the world, and still living up to their commitment of comprehensive benefits for life.
Definitely. And because I'd love to experience another culture, another country another anything I've never gotten the opportunity to before. Amongst other reasons.

Some Persian gulf states pay their citizens . I’d accept citizenship from Kuwait or UAE if offered.

@AthrillatheHunt since you called it the Persian gulf they will likey not give you the citizenship

(Jk🤣)

@Moon3624 they (Iran) are Persian first . Jews and Muslims second . That makes them unique . I get the joke and it was a good one hahah

But let me tell you something funny since I am from Saudi Arabia

If you enter any gulf country
Your google maps will change
And instead of showing it as Persian gulf with Arabian gulf in brackets it will only show you it as “the Arabian gulf “ 😅🤣

I’m already there
pdockal · 56-60, M
No
Why would I ?????
LordShadowfire · 46-50, M
Absolutely 100%. And I wouldn't look back until the 🍊🤡 dies.
Holden · 31-35, M
Yes, especially if it's Aruba or Japan. Anywhere but here.

Duel citizenship perhaps. Just allowing duel citizenship says a lot about the country.
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@meJess huh? 🤷🏻‍♂

The advantage has nothing to do with the laws. You must obey the laws no matter where you go. Even staying here in the USA.

@DeWayfarer not my point, granting citizenship where only one citizenship is allowed guarantees your right to abide. Allowing dual citizenship allows the removal of one, and the loss of right to abide.

Allowing dual citizenship doesn’t make a country better, just leaves it’s authorities with more options.
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@meJess and my point is single citizenship as well doesn't matter either. As Trump has so well demonstrated.

US citizens are being thrown out.

Might as well take what advantages that you can.
