Nothing beats moving to a low-admin country, though. Since you're working remotely anyway, you could as well do that from Ecuador or so. The lower/non-existing tax bill will easily pay for any flights back home. Enjoy the beach!

Yes, let's all figure out ways to bilk the government and screw over people who don't have exactly the same arrangements as us.

How is moving to a country with a low tax rate bilking the government? For that matter, what government?

Also if you are an American citizen you have to pay taxes on your worldwide income even if you don't live in the US anymore. There are pretty good exemptions (I think its like the first 90K of income) but you still have to file every year.
