Well a few years ago people were asking me why in the world I moved to Jordan and now people are asking how they can move to Jordan.

I also find it difficult as an American citizen to handle the fact that even though I do not live in America that I will be forced to pay for insurance that I cannot use.

More Americans are looking to give up their citizenship and move to a place of freedom. I am not sure that is the answer either. For me I only have a few more years before I can apply for social security so I am hanging in there. Lol. now that really makes me old.

I think for me I will prefer to take the penalties and live and do as I please. The law does not take effect until 2014 but hopefully by then it will of been overturned.

But if you are still thinking about leaving your country, here is an article on taxation of expats.
