Notes in English
Portal Finanças Inteligentes is a Brazilian personal-finance site written in Portuguese by Christian Costa. This section keeps a few English pages that people already look for. They are not translations of the Portuguese articles, so the site does not mark them with hreflang.
Numbers come from an official source or they are left out. The main site, the author page and the legal pages stay in Portuguese.
