If tourism was such a great money spinner in Bahia or Brazil for that matter then why has the Costa de Sauipe resort been the worst investment the Previ (Fundo de Pensao do Banco do Brasil) ever made. Infact since its inauguration it has only made a profit during one year.
If we had been lucky enough to buy a farm infront one of the beaches in Itacare 8 years ago, we would be millionaires right now to be sure. At least two people I know of now are.

But 8 years ago my business was else where and Brazil not even on the radar.

I know nothing about Costa de Sauipe resort, which I guess is in Aracaju not Bahia? But I do make a good living out of tourisem in Bahia (as do my competition), though my investments are rather more modest than that of a mega all singing and dancing resort!

To be honest I could probably buy the things on my wish to list, but business, for now comes first and the toys, god willing, will come later!
