    Immigration has always been and always will be in this world. Nothing wrong with that. But it must be, as you said, legal and of people who contribute to the society, not the crap and parasites/bloodsuckers that the UK has done for several decades now, who have totally drained the economy and turned it into a sinking ship. Other than those who work online or have online businesses or those with a good retirement package, what would you recommend to others who are still young or at a working age, what kind of work businesses they can do there? Does the visa you have allow working and/or setting up one's own business? How much you reckon language would be a barrier? 🙏

    • @NuttersInCyprus
      @NuttersInCyprus  Месяц назад +5

      In cyrpus the language is no barrier! There is also Google Translate where you talk into your phone and it talks the translation. That solves that issue.
      I'm only 37 and uneducated, so I'm not the best person to give out advice.
      What I did to get to this point is...
      1. Think, think about everything. Ask why to everything. Why is this happening! What's the benefit! What happens if it goes wrong! Etc etc. Someone told me the man that asks the questions holds the power.
      2. Everybody has an opinion, but not all are valid. Even family wany the best for you, but if they haven't lived it, they are answering without being qualified. If I want to learn about money, I speak to people have lots of it. If I want to learn about property I listen to people who own some. I don't listen to the noise.
      3. Even if your not looking to make a house, car or any other loan application, build your credit score now. Because when the day comes your in a position to make a move, you don't want to spend the next 6-12 months building a score. Most people won't spend £14 a month on Experian, but will spend £40 on a takeaway.
      4. Stop smoking cigs, weed, vaping.
      5. If everyone else is working 40 hours a week, you work 100 hours a week. You'll achieve what they do in a year, in just 4 months. Elon Musk said that years ago, I paid attention and did it.
      6. Learn the difference between having a job, being self employed and owning a business. If you are a tradesman and 1 man band, you have a job, not a business. Learn how to scale and replace yourself. If you can replace yourself, the scale by adding more people, you have a business. This allows you to work from your phone and the business will continue.
      7. When scaling make sure you build out solid systems, if you have chaos in your business, by scaling to soon you only scale chaos.
      8. Somebody told me when I was on the building sites the man with the hammer used to rule the world, now its the man with the laptop.
      9. Consistency, just keep going, even when you wake up and kicked in the balls 10 times a day 7 days a week, keep going...but at the same time, learn when to stop. It's a skill in itself.
      10. Write down your plan, I don't write time targets, for me it's just get it done and it'll take aslong as it takes. Going back to point 9, be consistent, going back to point 5, work more to get to your target quicker.
      A) build credit score
      B) save 2k emergency fund
      C) learn Microsoft Excel (youtube vids)
      D) Improve zoom call skills
      And so on.
      11. Look at your life as a whole not just next couple years, are you willing to double down and work hard now for 5-10 years, to enjoy the next 40. (Age dependent)
      12. Nobody really cares about you, if you don't go and do what you've got to do, nobody else will do it for you.
      13. Risk, would I take a risk of losing 4k to make 2k the answers most likely no. Depending on the risk calculation. But would I risk 4k for 8k, maybe, again depending on the risk calculation.
      14. When doubting yourself, look at everyone around you and think, if he can do it so can I. Hard work and consistency beats talent.
      15. If your goal is a million, think of the work you think it'll take, multiply it by 10, then go and do what it takes. Even if you fail, you might have make 100k, that's still a win, even if you don't make 100k, your further forward in life than you would have been just sitting there doing nothing.
      I could go all day, but I just put loads of little rules in place for myself and stay disciplined.

      From a visa perspective. As I said to @NuttersInCyprus, I obtained my MEU1 status before the UK left the European Union, so I can effectively live and work here for as long as I wish - no restrictions
      Now that the criteria for entry have changed, it's not an easy process - all the advice/guidance in these posts is accurate, so watching and listening will be beneficial.

    Good for you mate. Straight talking, fending for you and your family, expecting no one to step in and support you. Those that get all negative over this are the ones who will not take risks and prefer the safety of 'what they know', even if it is dire. I've lived in different parts of the world and have recently retired in the UK, funny enough, will I stay here, I don't know but I've earned the right to make that decision and will expect no one to support me and my family wherever we choose to live. I've spent a fare amount of time out in Cyprus working so know the place quite well. Your info on the channel is dead useful in helping others decide if they could make a go at it.

    It really intrigued me listening to your career journey from school with little or no qualifications in a past video. I take my hat off to you, its your business and you should be proud of what you have achieved so far which has ultimately lead to coming out here to live. Don't listen to the haters. I wish I had been so smart and worked smarter like yourself when I was at the end of my schooling. I have been lucky enough to have been living here in Cyprus for the past 20 years or so from when I was in my early 20's (obviously working here during this time period) without all the red tape, after having been born and lived and worked in the UK for a while, prior. I do have Cypriot heritage have a Cypriot Passport and ID and am married to a Cypriot as well. You definitely made the right choice I believe, despite the somewhat long winded processes, it was worth the effort though, embrace it.

They think it's ok to let anyone into the UK without vetting them, but sadly we can't leave unless ypu fit the right criteria. The people that run the UK should all be locked up, for their mistrust of power.

    I finally got my Irish citizenship through this week and now waiting for my (EU) passport. Hoping to be coming to Paphos in Feb. We are both in our 60s but not at state pension age. We both have work pensions which would cover us should we need to (although as an EU citizen we don’t need to legally hit the €28.8k). I’m an entertainer and so will be working in the hotels so should be comfortable before I hit my state pension.
    You are so right about the mess the UK is in. I cannot wait to get out. We are lucky in so far as we already have some friends living out there, some Cypriot some ex pat brits.
    Like you I have started a YT channel to document my journey out there but I’m avidly watching your channel too as your info is so useful. Keep them coming.

      @@lisamoore9238 I don’t know if you’ve watched the video(s) on my channel as it outlines it all especially the process. I legally have always been dual nationality, although I didn’t realise until recently. My grandmother was born in Co Mayo, she came to England as a baby, when my mother was born she registered her in England but, like most people, didn’t know to register her on the Irish Foreign Born Register (FBR) even though my mother was British by birth place and Irish through hereditary. So my mother was a dual national. Like my mother, I was born to an Irish citizen but British by birth place, like her mother she registered my birth in England but didn’t know to register my birth on the FBR. As I’m legally already an Irish citizen it’s why I don’t have to attend citizen exams and why I don’t go to a citizenship ceremony. There were law changes around 2005 regarding the hereditary rights which changes it for people born post 2005
      You ask why? Well there are several reasons. One is that I have a real pride in being Irish myself, this brings it to a formal and legal position, but I’m also proud to be English too, one doesn’t diminish the other. From a practical point of view I’m also now an EU citizen again which opens the door to reside anywhere in the EU, something lost to British citizens after 2020. With that I shall have an allegiance to Cyprus too….but not diminishing my loyalty to either the UK or Ireland.
      Had I been aware of my full cultural background I may have done this exercise years ago and may well have moved over to Ireland to live at that point, however it was not to be.
      Hope this answers your questions and thank you for the kind wishes.

    Great information as always on your video man.
    Moving out there (or elsewhere out of the UK) isn’t within reach for us at this time but we’re keeping on working towards it.
    Don’t listen to the jealous folks !! I’ve never been jealous of anybody and I’m friends with some very very successful, rich and sometimes lucky people, and jealousy doesn’t come into it. I’m happy and proud of what I’ve worked for and own and if I never get to live abroad I’ll still be happy, just a fair bit colder !!
    All the best to ya man. Take care.

    Thank you, very helpful. Just started getting my state pension, but not my WFP! Wife is too young for pension so our income is too low to qualify for Cyprus even though my wife grew up there (RAF Akrotiri). Back in the UK I've sold my last BTL and paid the £27k CGT (not allowed to deduct refurb costs to sell from Cap Gain) after paying income tax on the rent, taking all the risks and doing all the work. This country's absolutely a train crash and getting worse. Don't mind the trolls - their probably the same idle, feckless crew who don't get off their ar*es, but just criticise and take. Keep up the good work!

      There are lots of tax cons in UK but capital gains is the worst. Check out the annual inflation rate for each year you owned that property. You will find that most of your “gains “ are actually inflation. What’s worse is that our government caused this inflation by printing too much money and giving it away ( I received none of it)!

    Great comments on immigration.
    I was brought up in East Manchester- Gorton to be precise. It was always a tough area, but people looked after each other and respected their area and homes.
    I was lucky enough to be able to afford to move away in my late 20's- more rural- but I speak to people I know, and they tell me how bad it is now. Rubbish strewn everywhere, old abandoned furniture left in the streets, gangs of men hassling local girls- by the way, the local boys don't tolerate this! Fundamentally, these "people" that arrived on our shores haven't come to work and boost the UK economy, they've come to be manipulative of a situation created by a conservative government that has fucked the UK. I'm with you, if we were bringing in Dr, engineers, IT specialists, etc, then I'd welcome these people with open arms, but the unfortunate truth is that these aren't qualified professionals.
    I now live between Cyprus and the North East, and I really am sympathetic to people who live in amongst these conditions. The natural indigenous people of Great Britain are deteriorating.

    Really great updates and information. I think your channel will grow.
    I really like how you articulated (for the haters) the difference between immigration types.
    And in my opinion, the future is determined by the ingredients of the present. Innovative thinkers and problem solvers, who are self sufficient and not a burden with children that will continue the same way generally will build a better future in which ever country they move to.
    The country that attracts more of these types of people will thrive more than the country that doesn’t. It doesn’t get more simple than that to determine the future of a country in 30-40 years.
    That’s not the same as saying that a country should only have those types of ppl.
    Haters are gonna hate though.

    You have absolutely done the right thing for you and your family. That is a man's job. Ignore the negative comments. My wife and I retired ten years ago and were wondering whether to move abroad. We considered Cyprus, Lanzarote and Crete. We decided to stay in the UK and retire to the coast and go on holiday as much as we could afford. We used to live in Rochdale and could see exactly where the Country was going, but we have been surprised at the speed at which things have got worse. If we were retiring today, we would move abroad. I think it is too late for us now. Best wishes to you, your wife and your kids.
