Everyone seems to be very optimistic about Brazil's grown perspectives, I still very skeptic about that, but I'd love to hear what you have to say about that.
I'll start with this Time article, Brazil the un-China.

I heard they were doing okay, but I guess it's just the welfare is good.

I don't know a lot about Brasil. Other than a few weeks in each of tourist/work in Rio, São Paulo, Brasília and a couple other major city areas. But I loved it.
So much so, that I want to move there. For example: a (Nice, Modern) 3 bedroom house, on the beach, w/ pool and pool house/maids quarters in Geriba, near Búzios was 80k USD a year ago. Yes, every single cliched idea of what Brazil is. Beach wear? The smaller the better.
Brasil is resource rich, cultural rich, and gross exporter. They're energy rich and non OPEC. The property there seems to be very much in demand. It is like the U.S. post WWII. A real boom of the middle class.

But seeing as how Brasil seems perfectly poised to be a real economic world super power, it's only reasonable that other prospectors are looking too. Hopefully a surge in the local economy means boosting local Reais. Thus employing locals, feeding people, educating and hospitals etc. I don't speak Portuguese (very well), but I'll can learn.- http://www.google.co…threadpost

My friend moved there a few years ago. She's American, ethnically Vietnamese but now it seems, all Paulistan.

I think the olympics and world cup are going to help them quite a bit, they also found a lot of oil in the sea. They are poised to be the 1st country of south america to become part of the so-called "first world".
- I think Argentina held that title prior to blowing up... it's was the 4th largest economy in the world.monNom
- Germany is 4th todaymonNom
- Couldn't get much more German from the homeland, than Brazil.threadpost
