Listen Later

Mark Nestmann has a Masters of Law in international tax law. In this interview with Mark Nestmann, they really dive deep on why the Americans have negative views towards offshore investing.
.
WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN THIS INTERVIEW:
  • Negative View Towards Offshore Investing: US citizens often have negative attitudes about living and doing business overseas due to lack of travel experience and media portrayal of tax evasion.
  • Tax Havens: The USA is seen as the largest tax haven due to FACTA and lack of information exchange. Many Americans abroad face higher taxes and banking challenges.
  • Living Abroad: Despite higher taxes, many Americans move abroad for unique opportunities and personal reasons. Popular destinations include Canada and Mexico.
  • Challenges: Cultural adjustment and logistical challenges are common for Americans relocating abroad.
  • Tax Filing: Only a small fraction of Americans abroad file tax returns, raising concerns about tax evasion. Options exist for those who haven't filed.
