Needless to say, a true Carioca never makes mistakes when dealing with money.

2008, Priscilla Goslin, How to Be a Carioca: The Alternative Guide for the Tourist in Rio, →ISBN, page 43:

I was impassioned about this because my Portuguese professor at Johns Hopkins was a Carioca, or native of Rio de Janeiro, and the first thing she told us in class was that she was going to make us all Cariocas.

2012, Katherine Losse, The Boy Kings: A Journey into the Heart of the Social Network, →ISBN:

Cariocas – as inhabitants of Rio are called – panicked, and the newspapers reported the deteriorating situation in the city.
