Olá pessoal.
Eu estava quebrando a cabeça para escrever uma frase assim:
"Estamos longe de dizer que o custo de vida aqui no Brasil é bom".
Obrigado a todos,
Emerson

We are far from saying that the cost of living in Brazil is low.
(to be honest, perhaps many of us are far from even getting by comfortably.)
And nice spotless sentence, Gabrielock! you are the man!
