How can I take advantage of growing economic powers?
I'm only 22 but I love anything and everything international. Culture, business, computers, language, i love it all. I am an American and I speak fluent English, Portuguese, Spanish and now I'm trying to tackle Chines. My question is this... I am learning all these things right? Well... How can I make money with this? How can I take advantage of these new economic powers in the world like China and Brazil and other arising countries? I think I don't even completely understand my own question. Help would be nice...

stock market, be a stock broker, take business and economics in school.

Before you tackle Chinese, use your fluent English to spell it correctly! "I don't even completely understand my own question“ A classic Yahoo Answers statement!
3 :
Language is a tool to express your ideas. So, Language is a system of signs (indices, icons, symbols) for encoding and decoding information. Since language and languages became an object of study by ancient grammarians. At first, you must be an expert in any field. That may also be a teaching experience on a language. Good luck!

You may on your knee asking them for both money and power at the same time in Chinese. You may also work for the IMF. There are a lot of works over there due to the boom and bust cycles around the world.

Hi Homestar if you r love of things international extends to culture and are not judgemental about different countries' cultures ad methods of business- aka bribery/guangxi/tea money/golf games/drinking parties... I suggest you study some economics and business and try getting a job in a commodities trading company. I mean real commodities, physical grain rather than paper trading. This will allow you to travel, experience the world, and where your language skills and cultural sensitivity would be very useful. A lot of business is done not on strict numbers, but on people's feelings towards each other, trust; and respecting and understanding the others' culture is half-way there. You could try pure trading companies such as Cargill, or some less obvious companies such as Mars which do their own buying and selling of grain.

it's not 'becuz it makes money from timber'. that's quite a strange question, as surely a 'good example of a middle income country' is one that has a very average national income per capita relative to others around the world. what is interesting about Brazil is that it has recently industrialised and has started to encourage FDI into the country. this allows for increased levels of economic growth with the country's output steadily rising over recent decades after problems with its attempted growth through import substitution industrialisation.

My girlfriend is an illegal from Brazil. She dances at a topless club and has a fake Green Card. Shall we?
My girlfriend is an illegal from Brazil. She dances at a topless club and has a fake Green Card. Shall we?
deport her? The club, located in Key West, withholds 10% of the girl's earnings and sends it to the IRS as they do for all waitresses. Her Green Card is a fake with a fake Social Security number. She makes outrageous money there, sometimes $1000.00 per night In the past year she has paid almost $17,000.00 in taxes. Should we deport her or use the money to pay down the National Debt?

She should be deported. She is breaking the law.

Well, let's see. I guess she deserves a waiver and a real green card. I'm thinking that in Key West there isn't another person willing to toss 'em. Give me a break - put her on the next plane and charge her for the ticket.

is Brazil a 3rd world country?
is Brazil a 3rd world country?
I mean obviously the country is doing pretty well for themselves financially, they have new large oil deposits, they have many products they sell and they export to many places like china and make great money, they have technology, cars, buildings, businesses...everything we have here in America but they also have many poor poor people, slums that look like you're in a 3rd world country, directly by richer upper class parts of town, the murder/robbery/crime rate is very high, and much of the country as a whole does not have paved roads and even if they do they are very poorly done.

Police Officers in Brazil?
Police Officers in Brazil?
How much do Police Officers in Brazil make? I was just asking because I have a degree in Criminal Justice. And I'm deploying for Iraq in a few weeks, but I figure if I save my money form the military, I'd have enough to buy a house in Brazil (Rio de Janeiro) but I know I'll need to keep getting money so I would just join the Police force down there. So if you guys could help me, I'd appreciate it.

It really depends, it can go from about R$1.000,00 to about R$10.000,00. That, of couse, assuming you're an honest person. But police officers are completely unethical in here, so most of them make much more than just what they get from their salaries.
2 :
Foreigners cannot enter in the Brazilian police, the course that you have do not have diploma equivalence in Brazil, or be like the United States don't recognize the graduation diplomas emitted in Brazil, Brazil doesn't recognize the diplomas emitted in the United States also. To enter in the police it is necessary to participate in public contest that involves several stages the first of them is knowledge proof in Portuguese, mathematics, social studies and Brazilian laws. After approved in these stages there is proof of physical conditioning and last the psychological exam.

I'm assuming you're from the U.S. Obviously, you'll need a valid U.S. passport. VERY recently, Argentina began charging an entrance fee to U.S. citizens coming into Argentina, but ONLY if you enter at the airport in Buenos Aires. If you come in from Santiago, Chile, there are flights to other parts of Argentina, such as Cordoba, Argentina's 2nd largest city. This is NOT a visa, but an entrance fee that's good for 10 years. I believe it's close to 100 dollars. You will need a visa to enter Brazil legally. They force U.S. citizen's to have a visa and charge the same amount as Brazilians going to the U.S. as part of their reciprocal policy.
2 :
as the person above mentioned there is a new entrance fee when u fly into BA it is 131 american dollars they do this to try and get back at america for charging them to enter our country but anyway when going to brazil from argentina try and avoid the tri border area as it is known which is the area which paraguay brazil and argentina all meet it is known for drugs terrorist and scores of other illict things so do some research and find a safe way of entering brazil because you dont wanna b held for ransom also brush up on some common spanish and portuguese ( they are fairly similar) because it depends where u you go but sometimes you can find yourself in a situation in which nobody speaks a word of english it can be a difficult spot so its good to know enough spanish to communicate enough to get your point across also remember that you arent in united states anymore its a diff country w diff customs but you should b fine just always be alert and have fun if u have time of the oppurtunity to visit the city of tucuman, argentina i strongly suggest it ( some of the most beautiful women i have ever seen reside in yerba buena a small town just outside tucuman )

What I can give you is an idea of how to go from Buenos Aires to Brazil. If your friend lives in Buenos Aires, you may want to cross by ferry to the small and historic town of Colonia in Uruguay, and maybe stay for the day or spend the night there and then head to Montevideo, Uruguay's capital. I don't know what time of the year you are planning to come, but try to avoid cold and rainy winter (June-July-August). After Montevideo, you can head to Punta del Este, an upscale beach resort, which should be pretty quiet during low season (all months except for Dec-Feb). Then keep heading east, and go to la Fortaleza de Santa Tereza, in Rocha, and then go to the Fortin de San Miguel, and then you are in Brazil. I don't really know Brazil, but I would like to visit Curitiba.

Obama giving Brazil 2 BILLION of OUR money?
Obama giving Brazil 2 BILLION of OUR money?
Obama has given Brazil 2 billion dollars for an off shore oil rig to drill deeper then the BP rig. LINK::::::: http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203863204574346610120524166.html#articleTabs%3Darticle So the question is this. Is this the reason he does not want the rigs to start drilling in the Gulf and is this yet another payback considering that George Soros has also bought into this Brazilian oil drilling??? And does it make you mad that once again he is taking jobs from Americans and doing nothing to crate jobs here??

Steve, I thought it is strange that we give a loan to a company that had profits of $17 billion last year and find it ironic that George soros bought stock in the Company sorta right before the administration announced the billion loan. I am checking this now, but was told that we have some international banker deal here and it is made up of about 50% 50% Dem/rep and this deal has been going on for a while and that it started with President Bush. The only thing I could think of is we are getting a real good rate on the loan. Still Exxon Mobile had profits of I believe $31 billion, so why the loan. Also the company drills at the depth of the rigs that have been shut down here. Will get the rest of the information on the banking people for you. Have a great 2010! Add on, the bank is called ex im bank or export import bank of America. Google that and the deal was suppose to be a done deal back in May of 2009 before an Obama appointee came on board, So it was a normal deal as the people from Bush and other presidents were still in place. Now I find it weird this bank is around and what they do loaning money to other countries. Another can to open. Since the House and Senate members will probably get $4 billion* in donations this year from the lobbyists, PACs, etc, don't count on them to upset the money. they get milllion s a yer and family are emplooyed by the lobbyists, go figure.
