I am leaving the U.S. for health, family, and personal reasons...

Not too long ago, I too pondered about moving to Austin, TX :)… I visited Austin recently, and it is a very nice place full of diverse and very friendly people. IMO, Austin is a great “home base”: C.O.L. is relatively low, and the climate is quite nice unless it’s summer. So if you plan or can afford to travel quite a bit, it seems like a practical location.

Plus, IMO unless you are required to be physically present in the D.C. area for a job or something else, this place is not all that great (too many bureaucrats, lobbyists, and lawyers, thriving of off $$$ obtained through coercing honest and hard-working people :) )... Not too mention that the C.O.L. is quite high here, comparable to most BIG cities...

I am also looking into Bahamas, but will have to get in touch with a good accountant who can sort out the taxes issue… There is no income tax in Bahamas, but as long as you are a U.S. citizen you are still responsible to Uncle Sam at least for the federal tax. As one friend pointed out once, “did you ever notice that taxes and theft both start with a letter ‘T’ ? “ :) However, I did come across a piece of info that mentions that up to $80K of earned income abroad can be excluded from taxes… The question is: if you trade abroad U.S. markets, is that considered earned income from abroad or from U.S.???

Fellow ETs my apologies for going off the original topic, just so many relevant question pop up when we start talking about trading from abroad…

I often wondered how you picked your name Bastiat? Any connection with Law history?

It seems the Canadian guys kicking some serious ass judging from the P/L thread. MNX, Lescor, MilleniumMan, Red INC, Szeven...good work guys.
