Like so many others, I moved from London to Portugal’s capital for the sun, lifestyle – and the tax break. But as tensions rise with struggling locals, many of us are beginning to wonder whether we’re doing more harm than good …
They probably didn’t move there with the intention of doing good to anyone but themselves. So I think this “doing more harm than good" really is just a turn of phrase meaning they realised they did harm and not necessarily a sign of hypocrisy.
They didn’t move to Lisbon to do any good in first place…
Ignore ‘sun’, ‘lifestyle’ the ‘-’ and ‘and’
for the the tax break? 😉
Can you blame them? Doesn’t that constitute success?
Edit: obviously some major hypocrites in this thread )
They can stay until they decide it doesn’t benefit them anymore. But it was never about doing more good than harm (unless it is to themselves).
