Even if the Real was still 5 to the Pound and there were plentiful cheap flights, I doubt it. It’s now 3 to the pound and the cheap flights look like a thing of the past.
Spain and Brazil are completely different - countries, continents, economies and cultures.
Most Anglo/Euros who would happily get by in Marbella, would not last 3 months living here before wanting to return home to a place they feel more comfortable.
The reality of doing business and investing here is very different from Europe. It’s something you have to experience to fully understand. Many get burnt and many just go nuts trying to deal with paperwork and Catch 22s. Scratch the internet and you will find forums full of people bitter with their experiences in Brazil. (Ralph I think you used to post on one)
Sure come to Brazil and get to know it, and if you like a place, do some research and maybe take a punt. But if you are looking to make a quick easy buck be very very careful.
