    Hi Englishdave. While the advice you have been given is good and should be respected, you will find that dashing one's hopes is the blood sport of expats here on the forum. But, I am sure you have realized that already.

    Many of us have seen the common pitfalls foreigners fall in to (or have been a victim to it ourselves). Personally, I have seen a handful foreigners that were very successful (most of these came here with a very large initial investment and/or a well thought out business plan and market research), a few that are always struggling barely making enough to pay the bills and a whole lot that have had their businesses go t*ts up in short order. It isn't crushing dreams, it is being realistic and being prepared.

    And please remember, the question posed here was not about starting a business, it was a very vague request for a business partner with absolutely no information offered when it came to the actual business. Everyone involved (OP and forum members) should approach this type of request with extreme caution. A post like this is blood in the water and could very likely attract plenty of sharks...or it could be bucket of chum being thrown in the water to attract potential prey.
