    @Belltown Daisy thank you. I must say I am enjoying this different life. It was down to Ecuador 🇪🇨 or the Philippines 🇵🇭. At least to start the adventure. The 36 month tourist visa is very helpful 👍🏻 The People are so polite and kind. ( of course not all…. But exercise some caution) If someone finished high school they can speak English fairly well. If College or University degrees…. Then fluent in English. Many Spanish words have remained in the local dialect. It seems the Tagalog language is a mix of Tagalog, Spanish and English…. Seamlessly blended together. Interesting that the Mall’s are healthy and alive here. Pick your City. Be within walking distance to a Mall and 90% of your daily needs are there. Groceries, hardware, gadgets, clothing etc. I Chose Baguio because it’s in the Mountains so it’s much cooler. I’m close to the town center and walk everywhere. Private Security and Police are everywhere and very friendly people. It’s a very safe city. If you need a taxi they are everywhere too. Generally very honest. A huge Park in the middle of the town is a very tranquil place for daily walks😎 …..and no one…. I mean no one is smoking brown “H” on a public bus 😔…. I watched your “shorts “ on your channel. Heart breaking. I lived in the Seattle and Bay Area…. Witnessed the decline…. Decided to sell everything and travel 🧳 …. PS…. The food is better in Mexico 🇲🇽…lol

But I do have some business to tend to for 6-8 weeks with some properties in Texas before continuing on. I actually have a fear of going back and getting locked in the US by some new orders the white house pulls out of their ass. Sad that the country has turned into a place that I have a fear of getting stuck in.

Also, they can expel or deport you whenever they choose to. I love Japan and would gladly live there forever but alas it’s just to difficult. Also, Japan can be very conservative and frowns upon things outside the norm. Because of that my wife and our girlfriend decided to live elsewhere.

The times to receive birth certificates, marriage certificates and police background reports can be long depending on where they are (it goes by the state in the US, so you may have to contact multiple municipalities, none of which will treat you best). Then there is the apostille process - but get a few copies of your personal documents - it will save time once you call Nomad Capitalist to help you move abroad.

When half of the country openly wants to imprison the other half, take away their free speech, guns, right to privacy, right to be free without surveillance, choose if they want to take a vaccine (it's not a vaccine ) or not, higher taxes through the roof (even though those same people flee those states Kali and NY) ... I haven't heard anyone within years say it's the best country because for reasons above, it's sadly not. It was. And now Neo con wars going to start up again after 4 years of most peace in 40 years.

    Find yourself a good tax person who specializes in Americans overseas and take the plunge. You don't have to decide to renounce right away. It takes years for most of us to decide (unless you've been kicked out of your bank account like some have). The most important thing is to at least try something new and be open to the adventure.

    ​"couldn't you just. Have nationalized in some country without having to renounce and just live as a citizen of your new country." Firstly, You can't renounce unless you have another citizenship. You will be turned away. It's a requirement. So, yes, I do have another nationality. I did live with both my American citizenship and my second nationality for 25 years. It wasn't until Obama brought in FATCA legislation that remaining a US citizen became increasingly difficult. Getting bank accounts, mortgages, jobs, participating in investments, and retirement funds become, in many cases, impossible if you are a 'US person'. If you aren't being penalized by the IRS you're being outright rejected by foreign banks. This is what's called the 'American taint'.There is a saying in the US expat community... "All roads lead to renunciation." "If you have no bank account or property in usa theres really nothing they can do..." You don't understand how FATCA works. The US has turned every financial institution in the world into tattletales... and they do tattle. Get it wrong and you could end up losing everything and still owe Uncle Sam. You must be vigilant about everything you do, particularly your taxes, which are cumbersome and expensive as an expat. You need a special accountant to get you through it each year. Bottom line, if you are thinking about leaving the US and simply disregarding FATCA, FBAR, and tax filing requirements you won't be able to renounce until it's all sorted out. US taxes must be filed for the five years prior to you renouncing and then one last time after you renounce. Then there's a possible exit tax. This is why you must plan. You must know the rules. How long you can visit the US each year without losing your Foreign Tax Credit, for example. This is why you pay for advice and this is why you should start by buying Andrew's book.

    ​@Uncle Ruckus You have no idea about any of this, sorry. Zero. Nada. Zilch. I felt I was wasting my time replying to you and you have proven me right. I have twenty-seven years of experience living overseas. Just letting your passport expire is meaningless. You are still a US citizen with tax obligations while being under the microscope of FATCA and FBAR. A citizen who, btw, won't be able to ever visit the US again with an expired passport. You know you have to enter the US on an American passport as a US citizen, right? No matter if you have a second passport. Of course, you do. You know that it's a felony to not file your taxes, right? Even if you earn $0. You know that banks in most countries will hand over your bank accounts to the IRS if asked, right? Are you going to lie when you go to open a financial account if they ask whether or not you are a 'US person'? Is this a fraud you're willing to commit? You have a lot to learn and I hope nobody takes advice from you unless they want to be relieved of their life savings with triple penalties from the IRS plus interest. There is a right way and a wrong way to leave the US and keep your nose clean, which gives you the option to renounce or not without too much stress or financial costs. "There is no reason to spend time and money in renouncing your us citizenship." Yes, that's why people like Andrew and myself (and thousands of others) have spent thousands doing so... because there was no reason.

    In 2004, I spent a semester studying abroad in Russia. It had its set of issues, but I actually didn't want to leave to head back to the US. I did it, out of respect for Russian law; but if I could have legally stayed, I would have. It felt so freeing not having to worry about American problems when I wasn't around other American students. I don't make 7+ figures; but part of that is because US politics have beaten me down so much for so long that I haven't been able to focus on being successful. I think that if I were to find a country where I were treated better, that I could become at least a successful freelancer - and that maybe I'd have a better chance at earning a good income.

I think the heat and humidity of tropical countries is a BIG factor ie A/C and “food” may be tasty... but you want to eat healthy and being on a low carb diet (which is keeping me alive) means Chicken, Salads, Vegetables can’t be a “luxury” but a staple.... cost of medical... mostly a fraction of here in the US but I caught typhoid in Surabaya and had to get a train to Jakarta to get decent care... Money-wise, I think a lot of people assume Social Security will be around forever (or won’t be cut-off to expats) so it’s probably a good idea if you have some way to earn income (that doesn’t displace local workers) even IF you have retirement funds. Lastly, I’m pretty much a loner but, traveling alone around the Philippines and Indonesia, island hopping for a year, made me realize that I do need to converse with a slightly upper class crowd... music, theatre, films (sports is probably a no go since few countries share our sports) but - most people live a very basic life and are interested in what keeps them eating their living... so - unless you wanna be Eddie Albert & Lisa in Hooverville - you better scope out your potential circuit of friends!

    My husband is a CPA in Louisiana (owns his own local firm) and I'm a teacher (only for the last 3 yrs), he obviously makes the bigger bucks. What do we do, especially him if we would move to Portugal..We are 51 and 50 respectively but I want out of this hell hole....but my husband is resistant due to his job. Any ideas (or anyone been in this position) on how to make this work?

    Leave or stay, your option, get your passports and visit, as he said, open a bank account for a hundred dollars, but Louisiana hit 3 out of the 10 most homicides in the country, so stay and fight? or maybe have a backup plan, Mexico sound good to me too, cheap to live but you guys sound like you have more money so check out Belize as well, have heard about it, cheap and nice to live, you still have some time so set up the two or three vacations over the next two or three years.

    I wish we Texans could secede. I'm eighth generation and sick of what is happening to my state and this country due to liberalism. I've traveled abroad multiple times. Whenever I'm asked where I'm from, I always say Texas. I never say the USA. If I ever leave here , I will miss Texas. But, I damn sure won't miss the USA and liberalism.

    @@minigirl6379 I totally agree. I'm a Californian and my state is ruined by the libs, now, they're trying to ruin your state as they can't afford Ca due to their own fault. Throw in all the divisive BS and my country has basically changed to some other country. Now I'm considering Portugal and Spain. Who would have thought! It's scary and sad and I'm angry but I guess this is part of the journey to find safety and happiness and let all of the US induced stress go. My beloved Dad would roll over in his grave but if he could see what's happened he'd join us.

    Yeah, sometimes I think about renouncing my citizenship, and then living in California as an illegal alien. As a "foreigner" (at least on paper) living in the US, I could retain my brokerage accounts, and then pay no capital gains taxes; I could have a California driver's license; I could even vote in US elections. On top of that, Biden is probably going to legalize all the illegal aliens, so I could get my citizenship back... and then renounce a second time if I wanted to.

    I think most Americans are afraid of the "personal safety" aspect more than anything. Then it's hard to leave the country with the most powerful military in the world. As someone who is 6'4", blonde hair and blue eyes my thoughts are that I'm going to be a walking bullseye. It's just a fact that Americans are not liked in a lot of countries and I would NOT be safe. Of course I would feel comfortable in Germany, Sweden...most northern European countries, but not in places like the Middle East, most of Africa, South America, etc.

    You need to consider Asia! They would love you there lol. If you aren’t married I guarantee you would have your choice of potential wives lol. When I was there I had the best social life ever lol. I ended up married to a beautiful Japanese woman much younger than myself. Living in Japan was not ideal for many reasons so my wife and our girlfriend moved to a place where we were happier. So seriously look into Asia, its a great place to live.

    This is advice I needed to hear. Personally, I've never felt loyalty to any one country. I ask myself "what's in it for me" and lately, I can't say there's anything. There used to be things I got in return for tolerating stupidity but nawh, I'm out of this clown show. Tired of getting half my figures cut down to 6. Time to evac.
