Not at all uncommon for people to have duel citizenship. Ireland and Israel are two countries that allow it, and I am sure there are others. I suppose if you had one Irish ancestor and one Jewish ancestor you could have three.

Now you are being silly again: <Please explain just what the real benefit is of owning multiple citizenships per body... in case you are fat ? > Obviously, if somebody wanted to have a servant come and live and work for them, then they'd want to buy a citizenship which they could lend to that person or sell to them on a work to buy basis. Suppose a company wanted a dozen Brazilians to work to build a mobile Cyberspace system or lay 1000 km of optical fibre. The company could buy a dozen citizenships, then lend them or sell them on a work to buy basis to the Brazilians. Or somebody might inherit a couple from their parents and hold them in stock to provide a couple to their soon to be born children. Or they might be cheap after a huge natural disaster and speculators might buy a whole lot with a view to selling them in a few years when demand builds again. Mqurice
