Jimmy Miller, a cross-border financial planner with 25+ years of experience, works with Americans who want to live, work, and retire globally. In this episode, he reveals how expat financial planning really works—and why most people unknowingly walk into costly IRS traps when they move overseas. 🔍 What You’ll Learn If you’ve ever wondered: • How do expat taxes actually work for Americans? • Do you still pay US taxes abroad if you leave the country? • What are the best countries for retire overseas taxes? • Can you legally reduce or eliminate taxes in retirement? • What are the biggest IRS tax traps expats fall into?
