Medicnines anti biotics etc....same or more expensive.....the list is endless....another fallacy that Brazil is so cheap...in fact property is one of the few areas where prices are cheap.

I know it's off topic but pertinent to the last several posts. Life in Brazil is not cheap, matter of fact, when one weighs the cost/benefit, value in products and services, my life in the U.S. was quite a bit cheaper than here in Brazil. IF the same quality of product or service is even available here, it's normally more expensive.
