The maximum tax rate in PR is 4%. Possibly 0%. If you save your money (so you don't have a ton of deductions) you can be saving over 30% of your income by moving there. If you plan on staying there for a decade and reinvest those returns it can be a substantial sum. At least with PR you can keep your citizenship. However, it's definitely much poorer and more isolated more the mainland.Rofl. All these posts about taxes in other countries.

making 200k+ and taking advantage of the tax code will make you wealthy.
CPAs used to do conferences on this very thing back in the day.
Its comical - as if taxes are the reasons your bottom line is shit. No, its probably your trading, study more and apply what you are learning as perfect as you can.
