About this listen

Moving abroad isn’t a postcard. It’s paperwork, money moves, competing rules, and real trade-offs.

In this welcome episode, Janice Diaz and Robert Rigby Hall lay out the show’s mission and the core realities Americans overseas should understand:

Abandoned 401(k)s, Roth IRA treatment abroad, PFIC pitfalls, FATCA-driven bank friction, FBAR penalties, currency swings, and why U.S. politics still hits your wallet from thousands of miles away.

They also explain how to vet a cross-border advisor (look for U.S. literacy, such as the Series 65, and a robust tax/legal network) and why coordinated tax and financial planning matter more than hot takes on forums.

You’ll learn

  • The biggest financial blind spots for Americans overseas (401(k)s, Roths, PFIC, banking).

  • How policy shifts and FATCA ripple into daily money life abroad.

  • Practical criteria for choosing the right advisor and tax team.

  • Why mindset and preparation beat “figure it out later.”
