She has seen a fair amount of the US with us but I've never been to Australia or New Zealand and I really do want to see them, much as I dread those real long flights.Anyway, we're both staying busy, I'm opening in South Pacific next week (minor part-I can't sing) and my wife is handling costumes for this play.Soon the holidays will be on us, and then I'll be skiing, life goes on.all cash

Unfortunately after we bought our second rental every one of us moved to other countries (myself I moved to China) due to work commitment and we got stuck with 2 rentals which in the past 5 years miraculously we managed it remotely.The reason I found this website is that I went to an exhibition in Macau (note I was on vacation there and after a few days casino did some sightseeing and ended up there) where a company was advertising investment opportunities in the US.

Strange, I thought this legislation was allready there.Attended an exhibition in Macau a few months back where a Company suggested that by purchasing RE for a value of USD 220K a green card could be obtained.....
