Thanks Steve.

Steve you are connected, more than I am day trading from home, do this look like it really will happen? What's the word? This would suck IMO.

Consider Colorado, over 300 days of sunshine a year. You can search bestplaces.net to see for climates. Good luck.

Well said, I am considering moving to Easter Europe. I will have to learn one of many difficult languages and there will be no signs in English, none. And that's the way it should be.

Milano "I see what you mean. I just am clueless as to why hospitals cannot simply be given more taxpayer funds." The US is bankrupt, bust, just printing worthless fiat money. We spent our capital on the oil war in Iraq. That's why they call it deficit spending, only the US can never repay...

That's interesting I will have to look into the Irish American repatriation, since I am on both my Mom and Dad's side. I am also looking into Canadian Citizenship because my Dad is Candian. If I get it then I would probably renounce my US Citizenship and move somewhere like Easter Europe, where...

Thanks for the reply. That is good to know. It interesting that Vancouver BC go rated as the best place to live in North America. I mention it because having been there I believe the weather is similar to Seattle. I guess some folks don't mind the lack of sunshine.

Good point, if I move in the future I want to move east not west for trading reasons. Dominican Republic is EST zone I believe :p

VST Scalper if I could ask, Is it true that Portland gets more rain than Seattle? I heard that somewhere. Seattle is beautiful, I was there for the summer as a kid, it did drizzle alot in the morning though.

You are missing my point, let me clarify. Cost of living indices normally factor in taxes. Looking at just taxes, doesn't address housing costs, property taxes, etc. Looking at taxes only doesn't address the big picture, the actual cost to live in a give area. Make sense? Of course I looked...

Yes you are right about the cost of Czech meals. I am comparing to say a $100 US meal with bottle of wine to $15 in Ukraine. That would probably cost $25 in the Czech Republic, point being Ukraine is probably cheaper than the Czech Republic. Do you trade out of the Czech Republic?

Wyoming, that's funny. When I first moved to Dever a few years ago, I asked my co-woker at the time about Wyoming. He said you ever been there? No I said. He replied there's a reason there is no state or corp taxes there, go check it out. I drove through there on my way to Yellowstone. Hell no...

That awesome. I have just my mortgage, which I could pay off, but my fixed rate is low, and I like the measley deduction. You must have read Millionair Next Door. Ironically though, if more folks were like us the US economy might collapse, because consumer spending is such a big part of GDP.

Try futuresource.com and you can trade Nikkei 225-singapore through IB I believe.

Euro, Yen, Dax, Nikkei 225 on Singapore. It just depends on the given day and the time at which you refer to. That's a pretty wide time frame you are referring to. That's a good starting point though.

I think you can get a refund from SS. My mentor is Canadian, he is uncle who is Canadian, worked in Florida, for 10 years and paid SS and is now getting a refund.

That's ironic, you left Canada for the US, like my father, and I want to leave the US and get Canadian Citizenship, too funny.

To go back to topic, I really wish the Euro would decline, I hate have a weak dollar! Can you hear the whine :mad: :D

Some of my family are from the Czech Republic, Prague is quite nice although double the price of 3 years ago. Still you can get a 2 bedroom for about 60k USD on the outskirts of the city. High speed internet is about the same price as the US, not sure about the speed though. Last summer we drove...

You must be a Bush campaign contributer............it's okay I understand, I used to drink from that koolaide jug too. The US is fast becoming a police state, I am looking at my options to leave so you don't need to invite me to leave. Constitution you say......hell the Patriot Act took care of...
