It's illegal to homeschool your kids.
Prostitution is legal, they were going to refuse to pay people unemployment if they refused to become prostitutes which is a valid job over there.
Guns are illegal,
only the rich can get a measely pathetic hunting rifle when they plop down mega dollars.
They pay heavy taxes, think it's half of their pay.
They have even worse spine surgeons than America. I read a story of an American couple that were over there and they operated on the guys wife over there...really butchered her up and disabled her. She's barely alive right now.
Back in the early 1990's I stopped at a truck stop on the autobahn to buy a quart of oil, our car's oil light came on. $20 for a quart of oil.
To pay for college German girls will park their cars along the road and leave their dome lights on. That means pull over and for a few bucks you can get sex. They are actually reading their college books when you stop. It's how they pay for college. You'd think in a Socialized world heavily taxed you wouldn't see that.
In Frankfurt we were walking the streets one night in the "Red Light District". We saw kids young as 12 shooting up with drugs right on the street and just standing there staring into nothing. People shooting up all over....meanwhile some guy walked out of a bar with a beer and the police beat him with a club and hauled him away. They didn't mess with the people shooting up with drugs.
German TV is totally different. Top nudity on public tv. They kinda demean women over there, American women wouldn't put up with it.
I got pulled over by the German Police...nice guys. You pay them on the spot. I asked if they would follow me 1 block to the ATM so I could get money...they agreed and followed me to the ATM and I took out money and handed it to them. They went away.
My family fled Germany in the late 1800's. I got to spend 2 years there for my job in the early 90's. Beautiful place....but I see why my family fled. If you ain't in the clique over there you ain't into money. Kinda like how America is now.
Don't think they have a drinking age.
They don't have an alcoholic problem over there either. Since it's not banned....the kids don't go crazy drinking it up.
Plus they're all too poor to be alcoholics.
A bottle of Jack Daniels was $180. Levi Jeans were over $100 too. In the early 90's. Probably higher now.
Excellent food
They have a special holiday where the men wear a tie and they all go out. Married people all go out separate. It's a free-bee night and if a girl cuts your tie you get to take her home and have sex with her. Marriage doesn't apply on that Holiday...they all love it.

Lots of great information, thanks for sharing that with us.
Argentina. THE place to go... I know many millionaires and multimillionaires, and this is where they all flock to right now.
Why is this? What makes Argentina a hotspot for the wealthy?
They say it's the most "European" country away from Europe, it's still pretty cheap to live in, the food and wine are great, and the government is not interfering much. You can find places there that are nearly ideal to live in: moderate temperatures year-round, fertile land, very long growing seasons, remote locations, with quaint little towns that are yet unspoiled (which of course probably won't last very long once the millionaires' clubs have settled there ).
From personal experience, it'd be easiest to get a foreign girlfriend and marry her, so you can live in her home country.
That sounds like a truly great plan, but there's one problem... How does one go about finding a foreign girlfriend?
Well, man, you gotta do a LITTLE bit of work yourself...

This is news to me.

...You will still have to pay taxes to the United States for up to 15 years or something like that...
I have not heard this before. How can they justify that if you have zero ties to the US anymore & your income is earned completely outside of the US economy?
