I am planning to open a business here in DR. I am currently making a living of an online business but just to have some more income coming in, I am looking to open a business here.
I have been living here on and off since 2010, I am fluent in Spanish and I hang out more with dominicans than foreigners.
I have read so many bad stories here on the forum about other foreigners that I am wondering if opening a business here is a bad idea. Have you guys ever met any other foreigner that came here and made his business successful?
It's not like I am investing lots of money in it, whatever I am investing I am ok with losing it if things don't work out, I had businesses before (not here) that failed and I was ok with it, actually I was happy that at the very least I had the courage to try it.
What do you guys think? Is it a good idea to start a business here in DR?
