Fellow shotgunefx
Thank your for the advice. :-) Maybe you should read the answer I just wrote to brother maetrics. I'm currently looking for a new job offer for an entire year. And there are many fellows from Brazil in situations like this.
About my knowledges and capabilities, this is a good point of view, too. Maybe I'm overvaluing myself. I'll think about this and talk more later.
I have bad news, too: short after I've posting this (and I'm sure my boss don't read this at all), I was fired. They're cancelling the project I work on, and this means the entire team is off. Suddently, this thread was rendered (almost) senseless... and I became interested about your self-employment. Could you please write me about this? What is the feeling? How you gather jobs? What are the most annoying things, and what are the best things on being self-employed?
Many thanks to all fellows that helped

I'm very sorry about your situation, your story made me feel sad. You know, here in Argentina things aren't so different.
But don't worry, just get a new job. Search for telecommute jobs at jobs.perl.org, and send your resume to every Portuguese advertising agency that you can find in the web. I work for some Spanish agencies that pay me in euros :-)
The best thing of being self-employed? You can manage your time to get a life. The worst thing? Usually you don't manage your time and finish working on weekends.
Un abrazo.
José
