Would I have to pay taxes in the US and the UK? Would I be eligible for Health Care in the UK as an American? How does this affect my ability to contribute to for example a ROTH IRA or a company retirement match? Can you enlighten me using your past experience. I am really interested in moving there but want to make sure I am still on coarse for FIRE. Thanks!

Adrian Schuh - I'm hoping other people in your situation will see your comment and weigh in on it! :) We've never lived in the UK, so we're not familiar with how taxes work for UK/American exchange. However, I do know that the US has several tax treaties with other countries so as to reduce double taxation for a foreigner living in the US. I looked up the UK and US and UK have a tax treaty. Recommend starting there to see how that would apply to you! :)

We went to Porto and Lisbon and I loved Lisbon so much more. One of my suggestions would be to explore the different cities in Portugal before moving. Second, look at the tax breaks for retirees. They have really great tax benefits for people retiring there that you may qualify for!

You'll love living here. We've lived in Japan, on and off, for almost 10 years in total. Our father retired here 12 years ago and lives near us. His retirement goes a long way here. Even Tokyo is affordable relative to other major international cities. And if you're in a smaller city its surprising how inexpensive it is. And if you're in the country...you can live for less $1000/month. In fact we have a close friend that retired early to the country side and his total monthly expenses are only $700! He comes into the city*Yokohama or Tokyo) when he wants to experience the city vibe but then quickly retreats to his oasis in the country. Thanks again for the comment and congrats on your plan to retire in Japan :-)

So glad you found our channel, too! In terms of unavailable services, it just depends on where you go. Some things are small, like you can't access certain websites that you could typically access in the U.S. Other things are bigger. For instance in Singapore, you can pretty much assume you'll be taking public transportation everywhere. A standard car that would cost you $15,000 in the states would cost you more than $70,000 in Singapore!
@OurRichJourney

@H Hh - Just realized when you said services you probably meant public (fire, police, etc) & private (business, stores, etc) services. In this regard, many beach or snow resort areas will significantly reduce public services because the populations drops in the off-seasons. For instance less police patrolling or no life guards on the beach, etc. Many businesses close down completely because their customers are tourist and tourist aren't around. How these services reduce, or shutdown, depends on the location. Hope that answers your question.

Great advice. Lots of substance. I agree that visiting in several seasons is advisable. My takeaway from your video is this - treat selecting a place abroad the way you would a marriage partner. It takes time and pragmatism to get to know that person, and a binding relationship shouldn’t be taken lightly or naively. Then once you do, enjoy the sweetness and deal with the sour.
