Start Your Move Abroad In Five Steps (49:10)

Did that "pipe dream" idea of moving abroad + leaving the USA get a lot more serious in the past week, post-election?

We get it. We talk through the first five steps we recommend to get you on the path to moving abroad in the next 12 months.

Research your top potential locations for affordability, safety + climate
Choose your path: residency visas, 90/90/90/90 in and out of Schengen countries, or citizenship through heritage
Work with a CPA + immigration attorney to review finances + prepare
Make work decisions - if you aren't with a company that supports remote work or can not retire yet, consider making a move to a company that does.
Research local real estate listings, not only for price ranges, but for the cultural differences in living in certain areas abroad
