"Becoming an ex-Pat is looking better every day."

yes it is, BUT it now takes 6 years to renounce citizenship. free country, eh? during those 6 years you are fully taxed by the IRS. additionally you are only allowed a paltry sum to take with you if you leave. the rest will be taxed at extremely high rates. i think somewhere around 50% but that may have changed again in the last couple years since i read about it. it's not your money ya know, it's theirs, and they know it.

I have looked at several but don't have a strong feel.

It would seem wise to have your money in one place,and live in another..
