It's all been a plus: 14 years overseas.

@rollafevercaps1952 Gee whiz. I am a native Texan and I was living in South Carolina before moving to Germany this last time (l've had a few stints in Germany) before relocating to Switzerland (been here 7 years straight now). Anyway, if you don't think that moving from Germany to Switzerland isn't a major move, then go and watch any of the myriad of videos from German expats in Switzerland. It's a huge life change - different culture, different language, different working conditions, different healthcare system, etc. Some of them can't hack it and end up going back to Germany.

@AtheriosLive I live in Switzerland. Previously, I had lived in Germany for a few years.

No one has a "duty" to pay income taxes in countries where they don't live.... Except US persons! Let us know how that's fair. Or are you living in the US and also voluntarily sending tax payments to Germany and Canada?

Believe me, they will NOT look out for you if you're living overseas. As a matter of fact, the USA punishes Americans living and working overseas.

@benchoflemons398 There's always a solution.

Intuition is never wrong.

@ppumpkin3282 Nah. My son is absolutely Swiss and even speaks Switzerdeutsch and has multiple close (Swiss) friends. Children adapt rapidly

@kevinvong6912 After years of "action" as an officer in the US Air Force and years of "action" as a medical doctor in the US, I'm at an age where I don't need a lot of action and my main goal is to work a little bit and enjoy my family and the fruits of my labor in a peaceful, beautiful setting.

@rosewood5017 it's what everyone has to do eventually.

@rosewood5017 The easiest way is to get a job at a big international company, preferably.
