Expat Taxes Made Easy: The Complete Guide to U.S. and Foreign Taxes for the American Overseas.
Whether you’ve moved, are considering a move (either part-time or full-time), or have investment property overseas, the information you’ll find in the following pages is invaluable. Admittedly, our approach is different. Nick is not going to talk you through every single line of every form—the IRS instruction manuals do a good job of that. But, at the end of reading this, you’ll have a better idea of what exemptions and credits you qualify for, what forms you should fill out, and what IRS documents you really need to read.

The trickiest thing about France will be deciding which part of it holds the most allure for you.

It’s not surprising that France is the world’s favorite destination, receiving in excess of 80 million overseas visitors each year.

Pitfalls for Energy Over the Coming Year
The plain fact is that the world is awash in oil…for the moment. So it’s no great surprise that the oil price is tumbling, as are the shares of oil and gas companies. But I think we’re getting close to a buying opportunity. Global oil supply is already 2.7 million barrels per day (bpd) higher than it was a year ago. Meanwhile, global oil demand is only 700,000 bpd higher than it was a year ago. Don’t panic—this is a seasonal thing. The difference this time around is that we already have a 2 million bpd oil surplus on the market, and production in the U.S. and Middle East looks set to rise through next year. The good news is that not all energy companies are loaded with debt. In fact, some should do quite nicely. But they’re all getting pounded lower now. Of course, that means we’re coming to an incredible buying opportunity in select stocks.
