        switzerland, but it’s hella expensive there. France has an active hunting scene as well. No hand guns allowed here for civilians, but rifles and shotguns are allowed with a license.

          I mean, even in the UK I can own a rifle and shotgun with minimal hassle.

          But I can’t in good faith recommend anyone moves here from the US tbh.

          Germany would be a solid bet of you’re into shooting - lots of hunting going on there, and generally a high level of English proficiency also.

        some countries allow citizenship based on ancestry. Germany, Poland, etc. If one or more of your ancestors came from europe you might be eligible to claim citizenship that way. if you can work from home, you might be able to get a long stay visitor’s visa in some countries, which will allow you to live there, but not work in their local market. after a period of time you’d be eligible for permanent residency which would allow you to work there though.

        England has its own problems, but for anyone who decides the North East of England sounds appealing, I’d be quite happy to do the traditional British thing of sitting in a pub and putting the world to rights whilst enjoying a nice beer with you 🍻

        We’re all either going to die in a blaze of fire within 4 years or we’re going to survive with some pretty hefty PTSD. Either way, we’re gonna need some friends to enjoy it with.

        I recently saw a video claiming that the US taxes it’s citizens even if they live abroad. Is that true? If so, how are you going to deal with that? Paying taxes for two countries would not leave you a lot to live on…

          I believe you’re only taxed the delta between what would be your US rate and another country’s rate if said country has a lower rate.

          Most countries have agreements to not double tax people. So if you tell the US government you already pay taxes to Sweden, they will waive their own tax requirements

      No ability for me to move for quite a few reasons… I need the option to for a more literal interpretation (volunteer to test physical brain preservation).
