from the responses it sounds like there is no one answer for everyone with this. It depends on the person that you are and the person that your partner is.

you've had no close friends who've lost their options, or had their options become worthless when companies fail? You're one lucky person to know!

I'm probably not what you mean by being both outside the US and with US assets, but... I live in the UK, have to pay my US student loans, which is a bitch. I used to have a US bank account registered to my parent's address over wh

Thanks for the link to that. I'd seen parts of it, but hadn't known they'd come from a larger documentary. All the talk about breeding is a bit hard for me to listen to. I know it's different in the US, but here in the U

It would have been more interesting to interview those of us who live in Europe and still manage to pay our US student loans. It's a giant pain in the ass, from lenders who have no way of taking payment from anything but a US bank acco

Not sure I understand. The city of London is in the county of Greater London. New York City is in the state of New York. But Singapore is a city-state.

agreed. I liked them as well. Though probably heresy, the Sci-Fi series of the first two books were how I got into Dune. I went on to read all the Frank Herbert written Dune books and I still like the Sci-Fi series.

£120k is a hell of a lot. I've got to assume that's been translated into dollars. Being the internet someone will tell me that "everyone in London with at least 2 years experience makes that, easy", but yeah, that number

if you need to get heavy handed about it, people are probably going to leave. Which may be a good thing, since you shouldn't have to get heavy handed about simple things like styling. I'm a big fan of strong linting where failure

From what I understood of the law when I was wondering about my banks, yes. Though I have no idea how small and local the bank would be to not have to think about it.

Honestly, I think there's no hope. No one running for any office cares one bit about Americans overseas. It's very easy to get support for 'sticking it to those tax dodgers overseas' and very hard to get people to care a

The issue with the FBAR is the transfer of the money from the house into a bank account. If the money was in an account with the US citizen's name on it for any amount of time, such that the sum of all accounts with the citizen's

If you are both concerned, she can file back FBARs with a letter of explanation as to why she hadn't filed them (I had to do the exact same thing). I wasn't fined, and I was scared as hell. Yes, this is one person's story. Pe

looks to be US only, but banking systems in other countries may not need something like this. And with each country having different rules and regulations, it's probably a very big nut to crack for a single US based company. In the UK,

yes, people will. I'm of the opposite opinion to be honest. If you need to be pushed by someone else to learn something then why would you do it?
