You will definitely be charged for that call, and text. Check the Tmobile website for their abroad charges.
2 :
both will charge cause your texting is for anyone in the U.S/U.S.V.I. or PR some include canada not sure about tmobile and calling will charge you extra per a min even if you used on weekends.you can always try using the text feature using yahoo mail (go to inbox on the left side you'll see chat & mobile text click start a text add country/number and send a text they will be able to reply to your email address)
3 :
Both will charge because it's a different country and you have the T-Mobile service in USA not Brazil so yes it would charge you.
4 :
Any calls or texts to any number outside the US will be extra. International calling or texting is not included in your plans.

Trying to make a decision about Moving my family to Brazil, Please Help?
Trying to make a decision about Moving my family to Brazil, Please Help?
Hi, I am looking for some advise:) I feel like I am being pushed and pulled in two different directions and I cant make a solid desiosion and I feel like pulling my hair out! I have been with my Brazilian husband for 8 years now, we have a 5 year old son and 1 year old twins. Our current situation isn’t the greatest, we live on the third floor in a two bedroom apartment, it’s a large apartment but non the less with the twins getting bigger and bigger we have outgrown it. My husband owns a pizza shop and works about 80 hours a week, thus he is only here one day a week if that. With the economy business is slow and I am a SAHM so I have begun selling my crafts and such online and out of my house (www.littlelillylove.com) this has brought in money for me and the kids to play around with, so that we can get out of the house. Life is stressful feeling like a single parent a lot of the time, so my husband has been really pushing us towards moving down to Brazil. There we will be able to buy our own home, have many trustable babysitters (7 sister in-laws) and if needed we could have someone come in and help around the house as my husband already owns a taxi company down there and has a lot in stocks. He also would like me in the future to open a store selling all my children’s accessories after we get on our feet (as a good percent of my sales now in the U.S. is within the brazilian community) I have been to Brazil three times and really do enjoy it but the thought of living there scares me. My mom is here and she is a huge part of our lives, she is very close to the kids and is a huge financial help when it comes to the three kids. Everytime the discussion comes up about us moving she freaks out and manages to completely talk me out of it. My friends are all here but we are all busy living our own lives and the main communication with all of us is face book and online so they are supportive. Also my husband is as cheap as cheap can get, here we work around it, I have my own time and my car and if I want a pair of shoes or an outfit for the kids I don’t fight with him about it I just go get it. In Brazil at least for a while he will be in complete control as I am still learning the language. Maybe I’m over analyzing everything but I’m just so nervous. I know I’m grown, 27 in July and need to live my life with my family and do what’s best but I hate that my mom will be hurting and then if it doesn’t work were will we be, coming back here with nothing and three kids…so scary… Please can anybody offer me any advice as an outsider? Thank you we stayed there for a few months back 4 years ago and it had its pro's and con's but I always knew I was coming back and only had one child. And I say in complete control only because when we were there before it was a fight when I wanted to buy a shirt.... He says that it was like that back then because we had an overwhelming amount of bills (because I had surgery down there when we were there so we were paying that off)

I would say to go for it! Life is nothing if you dont take risks right?? Reassure your mother by telling her you will visit often and call her and such. Also you can always shop online if you want to be in control.
4 :
How completely do you trust your husband? How happy is your marriage? Sounds like it would be good for you financially and help you get some sanity in your life. But in a different country laws can be very strange. If your husband left you or vice versa are there any laws saying what would happen to the children? Maybe I have watched too many lifetime movies, but I would never take a chance on losing my child.

The words "in complete control" sends a red flag up. Then too, the entire World is having problems. I personally know some person that did something similar--10 days later they were back were they started---with nothing except some clothes and a few kitchen utensils. Everything else was gone.

Why does Obama want to spend money to help Brazil drill for oil?
Why does Obama want to spend money to help Brazil drill for oil?
Obama said the US will help Brazil with their offshore oil drilling. But the administration doesn't want to allow offshore drilling in the US. Does that make sense? We still have a lot of oil here in the US. But the government makes it very hard to get offshore drilling permits here in the US. http://www.instituteforenergyresearch.org/2011/03/22/obama-calls-for-more-offshore-drilling…in-brazil/ http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203863204574346610120524166.html Oh, so it's ok for us to support risking Brazil's shores?

so we can get discounted oil and not ruin our gulf in case of another oil spill
2 :
Brazilians need work♥
3 :
Easy... Brazil takes the risks of drilling for oil instead of us. We pay a little more, but there's no oil spill to clean up if something happens.
4 :
Where is that oil? In your house?
5 :
Nobody is 100% sure where oil comes from or how much is left they theorise that its long dead dinosaurs people plants everything thats why the say fossil fuel (i never bought that to be honest it just sounds stupid ) but thats just a theory .. what happens when the middle east and other places run out ? they will want to buy oil from whoever has it and america may be the only place they can get it from one day youd make billions but if everyone burns the worlds oil up all a one then we're all screwed.
6 :
It's called foreign aid - we do it all the time. The reason why we do this is because it involves us in the economy of other countries. This might be too complex a subject for right wingers though.
7 :
Isn't brazil one of those so called emerging markets? America gives aid to brazil Britain gives aid to India Both countries then undercut the countries that give them aid .... Obama should put America first....American business and American people Strange he is helping competitors and not his own countrymen..... His actions make him popular in brazil....remember he just had a jolly there.....but not so popular with the voters of his own country The man is clueless......or maybe he is looking for another Nobel prize

Why are we giving U.S. farm subsidies to Brazil's cotton farmers?
Why are we giving U.S. farm subsidies to Brazil's cotton farmers?
A lot of Americans are aware that their tax dollars subsidize cotton farmers. However, it’s unlikely that many Americans are aware that their tax dollars are now supporting cotton farmers in Brazil. Congressman Barney Frank (D-MA) calls it “the single stupidest public policy I have ever encountered.†In June 2010, the U.S. struck a deal with Brazil to make monthly payments of $12.275 million on top of two one-time payments of $30 million and $4.3 million. Total U.S. payments to Brazil should reach $157 million by the end of this month. Brazil, under the agreement, is responsible for making sure the money is spent only on improving the country's cotton sector. http://www.downsizinggovernment.org/us-farm-subsidiesfor-brazil It's bad enough that we're subsidizing our own corporate conglomerates, something I'm apposed to. It's even worse to discover that we're now subsidizing Brazil and possibly others that we're not even aware of. How do you feel about your tax dollars being used against you?

I think we should help who we can AFTER we help our own first.So it makes me angry.

Without reading the article, just commenting off the top of my head based on what I know about Brazil's unemployment relating to the destruction of the rainforests in Brazil -- I'd have to say it's worth it to keep the planet's lungs working.
