Think, what is the most important for you? In most cases, that is the family. What are you working for? Why are you building all those businesses? To support the family.

That is why it is not a question whether it is worth caring about a family. The problem is that nowadays, a successful businessman is in a high risk group. That is why it is necessary to ensure the protection of a family from all the dangers related to business in Russia.

If you are launching a business in the USA (or invest in an existing one), your family acquires Visas in the USA along with you. Children are entitled to study in any American educational establishments. Your wife gets the right to work comparatively easily.

Unfortunately, you can’t bring lovers and common-law spouses to the USA with these Visas, but, in general, there is nothing impossible. There are other visas, for example.

Furthermore – consider the army. Of course, the army helps to grow stronger, but if you have served in the army, ask yourself, do you want your child to go through all that?

Another point related to the army – kids often return invalid, drug addicts or do not return at all from the army. Anyway, your wife will never forgive you that. And you will loose your family. Do you want to take a risk? If you think you have a big choice, you do not have it. If you think we are scaring you writing it here, turn to the Soldiers’ Mothers Committee. They will tell a lot of interesting stories for you.

We have two clients who have lost their children. We do NOT RECOMMEND you to go through all that.

Anything can happen. You may not contribute money to election campaign of a party or of a candidate, and tax service will immediately find that you have millions of rubles of underpaid taxes. So, a paid out house in America with a decent bank account and good income will be useful for your family to take you from the troubles. Friends and patrons – that is good, of course, but there are situations when both friends and patrons will be “advised” to keep away from you for the sake of their own families. Later, meeting you, they will of course say they are sorry and explain what the circumstances were, but, unfortunately, when it comes to the most critical times, you will be able to count 100% only on your family. So, please, take care of your family today, while you can do it.

Besides, you do not want your family to actually become hostages in case a serious trouble arises.

For your grandchildren to glorify your name, for the children to be proud and for your wife to admire you – give them an opportunity of American citizenship. It is their choice which country to live in. Your business is to give them the opportunity of choice. And they will appreciate it. The taste of a free country has never filled anyone with disgust. How many Russians have gone to live and work to the USA? And how many Americans have gone to live in Russia? Issues of safety, education, and health care are easier to solve in a country where those systems are better developed. The matter is not only in the quality of everyday life. To a larger extent, the matter is in environment. You will not believe it, but when Americans are saying they are sorry or when they are smiling – in 90% of cases, they do it sincerely. How many people have said they are sorry or smiled at you today? It means you are in Russia. How many people in the USA have been deprived of their fortunes and freedoms due to disagreement with the US President’s Administration policy? Send us at least a couple of names for the sake of our own optimism in respect of Russia. How many enterprises in the USA have had their proprietors changed due to raiders’ attacks? Please, send us a couple of enterprises titles in the same letter.

By possessing an L-1 Visa to acquire a Green Card or having a Green Card as an investor, you can come close to the issue of American citizenship acquisition. Russian citizenship remains with you. But your family – parents, wife, and children will have US passports i.e. a free entrance to the USA and Europe with a right to employment. 6 billion people are playing the same game. It is called “Survival”. Score some extra points for your children. It will not be a burden for them.
