Hey Dariya--my in laws live there In Belorechensk! Shithole, yeah, but very nice climate and practically everything can be grown there. We visited last summer and also went to Alder for sand and sea. Smile There're lots of people renting out their houses there to tourists.


Tell me more.Is it worth building a house there and keeping it?

Hmm.... if you can a house with a fruit/vegetable garden and convince a green-fingered relative of yours to move in... why not? Smile

In our case the bank would rather give us a loan


In Kharkov Ukraine I was amazed to learn that my business neighbor/partner borrowed money at 25%. Discovered banks pay depositers about 14% (catch: not available to foreigners). This got me thinking there's a tremendous arbitrage opportunity. Anyone know what the interest rates are in Russia?
