Why would people want to be employed in a country like the Netherlands?
It's not like the US with crazy expensive healthcare, heck it's free over here.
Tax depends on the state, Washington has no income tax. It's a tech hub as well and you can make much muuuuch more money over there than in the Netherlands.
I'm still really young so location is definitely something I can control.
I have no business yet and I'm at the beginning of my career.
I don't have a wife, but I'm planning to find one and have 2 kids.
I can use a VPN to get around that stuff.
Not an issue.
What about education and stuff for children? Will it be very expensive?
What type of wealth do you think I can build up with this plan?
Kind regards
What you're saying sounds too good to be true. If it was like that nobody would pay tax and the government wouldn't be able to fund basically anything.
What would these issues be if you mind elaborating?
There definitely are quite a lot of people that do move to Romania, Dubai etc.
Probably 'cause they're not satisfied with the amount optimized.
With virtual you mean working remotely and then keeping your clients while making the move? Or trying to build some kind of business completely online?
England seems similar to Netherlands too. Canada might be interesting, although I wonder why so many Canadians immigrate to the US.
I'm not a know-it-all, I can partner with someone that has a masters in business administration or similar. This remark in particular sounds kind of ridiculous.
In life I enjoy sitting home, reading and playing guitar. Almost all countries have superior nature to the Netherland I can sometimes explore in the weekends.
My children can do their bachelors in the country we live in. Since I have an EU passport I can easily send them to do a masters at a more highly ranked university. Especially with the money gained from the tax-savings.
I heard about Romania through Andrew Tate. Always thought it was a shithole.
Why did you end up deciding to stay in the Netherlands? Although our country will always have a special place in my heart, it does not have a lot to offer regarding for example nature. We also have a housing crisis right now.
Did you look into whether or not you'd need to learn a new language?
(cuz I'm not sure if that's required in our industry)
Getting to a good position where you can ask to be relocated seems to be really hard too (correct me if I'm wrong).
Overall the US seems to not be a good option for me, since I completed my masters here. It might be if you study your master degree in the US, since it makes immigrating much easier.
Also taxes in Japan seem to be quite high, on par with the Netherlands.
Baltic states look interesting! According to google Estonia has a fixed 20% income tax.
Although I'm not sure how to pick between them, all three look kind of similar. I've also surprisingly never heard about someone migrating there for financial purposes. I've always thought of the US as the only place to make a lot of money.
very overrated, barely worth moving to if not for the great nature
the weather is great, I like rain while working tbh
I'm pretty sure it's really hard immigrating there though from the netherlands
(correct me if I'm wrong)
I'm fine getting around by car mostly
not sure about the security part, Dubai has no taxes and is very safe (although really really hot)
