We were planning to get married in the U.S., vist for a few months, and return to Brazil to live permanently. I am a United States citizen. We didn't do the fiancé visa because we weren't planning to live in the U.S afterwards. They claimed that he "didn't have enough ties to Brazil" because he doesn't have a car, house, or piles of money to spend in the U.S... We are considering getting married legally here so I can get permanent residency. Any advice? Is that the best move right now, or will it hinder trying again?
P.S. If anyone tells me to ask the consulate, I will shun scream. Seriously, the consulate doesn't answer questions about individual situations. Please only answer if you have advice or valid information.

The short but unfortunately harsh answer to your question is- Can't be done.
Seems like what you want is a temporary visa so your fiancé can visit for a few months, but then return to live permanently in Brazil. In order for him to get a tourist visa, he has to demonstrate significant economic ties to Brazil. This is a condition that he can overcome the next time he applies for a tourist visa but doesn't resolve your situation for now.
The fiancé visa isn't your choice because you aren't planning to live in the US. If you marry in Brazil, you can't file a fiancé visa since you have to be single to file for that visa. However, after you marry in Brazil, you can apply for a residency visa for your husband. There will be some financial stability required- you'll need to demonstrate that you can support the two of you. Your IRS Form 1040 for the last few years will be the basis for this. With this, he can become a green card holder. If you choose to live in Brazil, he'll need a Re-Entry permit which will allow him to remain outside the US for two years, so you should plan on visiting the US every 23 months or so.
If you only want to take your fiancé to the US, get married and spend the rest of your life in Brazil, you'll have to wait until he can demonstrate adequate financial ties to Brazil.
Not sure what you mean by "... shun scream." ... Good luck!!
I'm guessing that the lack of employment was his biggest problem. Until he has a steady job, he is going to have a tough time getting a tourist visa even after you are married. Unfortunately, he will be turned down for a fiancé visa if you are presently living in Brazil because you need to be living and working in the US to be his sponsor so that option is not open to you.
Once you have Brazilian PR, a home and you both have jobs, he will get a tourist visa. Request a visa for a short trip at least for the first time.
after you get permanent residency in Brazil and spend some time there, maybe. not right away though. but since he's already been turned down once, you shouldn't expect a different decision any time soon.
