Sure - your life is in the US and sounds like as good a reason as any!

I was mistaken about that, I just did some additional research. I was actually born in Holland. The dutch embassy site said that if you have Dutch citizenship with dual nationality (by this I assume also with US citizenship) and then if you
reside outside of Holland for 10 years you lose your Dutch citizenship.
I was inaccurate in my previous statement. Since I don't have US citizenship yet, my Dutch citizenship is still active. I am not comfortable living in Holland anymore though because I'm used to it here in the US, and all my family is here. I've lived here longer than I did in Holland. I moved here when I was a child and I don't speak Dutch anymore.
Yes, I know having Dutch citizenship is probably better for adult biz, but the thing is that I want to live here and not in Holland because I was raised here and adapted to life over here.
