Move Abroad for Your Retirement?

One great advantage to being American is that English is nowadays the lingua franca pretty much anywhere you go, and with 18.2% of Americans speaking Spanish as well, there are very few places Americans can’t go without being confident of their ability to communicate – although this is not to say that there is not rich reward to be enjoyed in learning to speak the native language of your expat retirement destination.

However, moving abroad is not a decision that is to be taken lightly. Not only should you thoroughly research your destination of choice, the type of visa you will require, the healthcare on offer and the expat community that exists there, you will also need to look into the full spectrum of expat wealth management considerations such as the pension and retirement planning vehicles, double taxation treaties with the United States and more. You will also have to consider reporting regulations in relation to your income – simply moving away from the US is not enough to negate your tax liability in the country.

Your Children and Your Retirement Planning

The future of retirement planning in the United States is at a kind of crossroads: traditional employer pension plans no longer offer the gold-plated guarantees they used to and it is more incumbent than ever before that individuals devise their own strategies for their long-term financial futures. However, this has come at just a time when retirement investors face an additional pressure: as parents they are increasingly obligated to offer monetary help to their children.

This picture is supported by a recent survey by Bankrate.com* in which half of American parents reported placing their adult children’s financial needs above their own retirement plans.

More than a decade of slow wage growth coupled with a cocktail of spiralling living costs – for example, housing, health insurance and vehicle insurance – mean that younger generations are facing unique financial challenges. Add into this mix the cost and increased popularity of higher level degrees, and it is easy to see why parents might want to help out.
