Very thoughtful comment.
I’m an American living abroad and got US citizenship for my children. I constantly wonder if I made a mistake.
I do get some tax savings, and most of my income and assets are in the US so I save for them there. But I know the burden of having to file taxes and possibly pay them when they’re old enough is a heavy one.
- crowf 6y agoI'm sorry if my comment sounded very harsh to you. On the "bright" side, if my country ever gets destroyed, I have an insurance citizenship that "only" costs a few hundred dollars per year (and the nearly impossible restrictions when doing "weird" things like becoming a private contractor)

- jraby3 6y agoIt wasn’t harsh. I meant it when I wrote that it was very thoughtful. I really appreciated your comment.
- csomar 6y agoNo. A few hundreds US dollars for US citizenship is beyond worth it. If anything, this coronavirus pandemic has showed us that citizenship does matter and it's actually worth a lot.
