I’m not leaving. I owe the IRS. It is a living hell when you owe them. Or when THEY say you owe them.
I’m sure more of my fellow Americans will fall into this category as well in the next few years.
Plus, these 3rd world crap holes everyone is posting about are not as nice as everyone is thinking they are. If they were so great, why are the young women who live there always trying to marry an American to get over here?
The world is going to hell in a hand-basket. The USA was the last beacon of hope.
Sorry. It’s the truth. Everyone... take care of you and yours. Pray.
Could any FReeper in Israel tell me the job prospects for people coming from the US?
Most American Jews don’t want to move to Israel because it’s a socialist country. But if the US is QUICKLY turning into a socialist country anyway, maybe I’d be better off in Israel.
My understanding is that if you owe the IRA 50k or more, you can’t leave the US
And the reason these young women want to leave these 3rd world countries is that there are no opportunities to make money, thus they want to come to the US, marry an American and then divorce him a few years later after obtaining a green card.
Don’t underestimate life overseas. While it has its pros and cons, it can be a great alternative to the US, especially for retirees on fixed incomes.
Why live on the edge of poverty in the US when you can live like a King or at least like a Prince elsewhere?
