Hi how are you all doing.

Need some help clearing this up
Is there anyway I can move and live in the US, if I'm born and have lived in the UK(Scotland) for my whole life and all my family live in the UK aswell.
I know i cant enter the green card lottery and i dont want to marry any American just to get into the US.

I have started my own business and it going well, if it still is in 2-3 years i would like to move and live in the US

Does it help if you have alot of money, lets just say over $1,000,000.
Would it help if i also started a business in the US say letting out houses/property or bar of restaurant would that help at all

Sorry if you think the numbers are a little big but the way my business is going just now its going to be very possible to be making that kind of money in the next few years and i just want to get out the UK because its not the best place to live money and weather wise

So is there any a British person can live in the US if they dont have family/blood over there

Cheers for your help

Have a look at this article which lists all of the ways you can get a visa for US. If you think you're eligible for any of them then feel free to come back and ask questions about that specific visa/route.

Good luck.

thanks for the quick reply i quoted this from the link you gave me
"You are an "investor" i.e. you have at least US $1m in assets to bring with you, or half that in certain areas. Your background will be investigated to the hilt. Immigrant visa. Search for: EB5."
do you think that would be the right one to aim for

That is a good one; the EB-5 goes straight to Green Card, so you arrive to the US as a Permanent Resident. Do some researching and let us know what you think!
