No. You have MULTIPLE SEVERE restrictions and that's why you will not achieve this. Time, visa issues and cost.

Stuff happens. But what you are asking for is not gonna happen from cost point of view. You can do GRU/GIG-DFW-N Asia on AA metal for under $900. This would net around 23k-26K depending on destination. Best deal you will ever get for a MR. But this before repositioning cost to Brazil and visa costs to Brazil and Asia.

Going for EXP is a financial and time commitment. Unfortunately you are in a more difficult position with a foreign pp and gotta be more flexible.
