Advice from UK/US dual citizens? (UK only'd work too :p) - Page 2

I have dual Canadian and British citizenship, no problems here. I don't think the US requires you to give up your citizenship, and I know the UK doesn't. There are a lot of countries that do, however, like Korea.

All the private banks i went to ask u if u are related to usa. wtf.... its much harder to hide your money in those banks unless u open an account under a company name, which is a pain in the ass to maintain.

Four years ago, I applied for a UK passport and I got one! For some reason, the US embassy also let me get it too!

Travelling couldn't be easier with three forms of identification, although you are really only supposed to carry one. I can go to most countries without a visa.
Singapre passport can do all of the things u mentioned. 3 in 1....
but the greatest thing abt a hong kong id is that i can just easily hide in china if Ive committed a crime and live happily ever after. China is so funky nowadays..
