  - you do know that other countries don't actually allow that any more than you guys do? :) there are processes. -- nm - Andie Jan 26, 11:42 15
    - Money often trumps immigration policy. A number of countries have conditions for immigration based on how big your bank account is. -- nm - Mop Jan 26, 11:57 2

    - You can live in Thailand and just u-turn every 90 days. I know people that do that and have for years... -- nm - colin Jan 26, 11:49
    - but a person could live in another country as long as they didn't get caught. - Epiphany Jan 26, 11:46 2
      - That's how most illegal immigrants come to the US, so, yeah. But you would be at risk. -- nm* - pmb Jan 26, 11:48 1
        
        I'm not saying it would be easy or hard - just that it would take money -- nm - Epiphany Jan 26, 11:50
    - Yeah, nobody lets me live anywhere I want. -- nm - George Clooney Jan 26, 11:44 2
      - you can own houses all over the place, but you have to leave the country and go home occasionally. :) -- nm - Andie Jan 26, 11:53 1
        
        I wonder if anyone actually tracks it - like could Clooney leave and just go to London - or Australia and go right back to his Chateau - Epiphany Jan 26, 11:56
    - Yeah, but to move to Canada you have to answer three questions. - Spawn Jan 26, 11:43 3

      - 1. Have you killed any Walkers? 2. Have you killed any Humans? 3. Why'd you kill 'em? -- nm - Diva Jan 26, 11:45 1
        
        This is Canada, so question #1 would be White Walkers -- nm - crash davis Jan 26, 11:49
    - What?! But we're Americans. Of course you'd let us do it. -- nm - Max Jan 26, 11:42
