is just because of huge US Tax. Eduardo Saverin holds 4% of the stake estimated to be about $3.84 billion dollars(Facebook as whole is estimated $96Billion). Eduardo was born in brazil but is resident in Singapore. Eduardo denounce his U.S. Citizen. If Eduardo maintains his U.S. Citizen, he will be paying $1.2billion of the $3.84billion on Taxes at 30% capital gains. But now that he ronounced his U.S. Citizen, he will be paying less than $400 Million. http://www.gistnaija.com/2012/05/eduardo-saverin-facebook-co-founder-and.html |

i dont think 99.9% of nigerians would do this, though funny enough I checked the list and did find a nigerian name there. as per the facebook founder, it seems he moved to the US in 1993 or so [not sure], got the citizenship around 1996, and since he's so rich, i guess he doesnt need it. he's originally from brazil. |

Not a wise move. But understandable. Hope he does not live to regret it. Nothing lasts for ever. Eduardo Saverin was born in São Paulo, Brazil, to a wealthy Jewish Brazilian family,[10][11][12][13] and was raised in Miami, Florida. Eduardo's father was a Brazilian industrialist working in export, clothing, shipping, and real estate.[14] Oh well! He is a naturalized citizen. . . Then I MOST CERTAINLY WOULD! He was not born an American. . . but a Brazillian! HE ALREADY HAS A COUNTRY! Good move. . .now I have the FACTS! With that amount of money. . . he can live ANYWHERE in the world. America has nothing to offer him at this stage. . . . He can still remain a visiting 'permanent resident'! GOOD MOVE!!!! |
