       @famine People with UK passports have their children born in the UK so they're eligible for a passport. They're not going to be "real" British people in the true sense, rather nasty little cultural mutts who hop across the globe and collect passports like stamps, but it'll be the closest we'll get.

       Idk why it'd be necessarily worth avoiding, just also not really something to get excited about unless you wanna work for a tech company, even then there's H1B

       @famine Or remote compliance agencies, wouldn't even have to move there and you'd get better labor protection depending on where your resident jurisdiction is. Although that isn't very common right now so I can imagine the need.Nah I'd mainly not want to have to file taxes in a country I don't live in. Trying to imagine if I had to do that for all my countries makes my head hurt.

       @famine  I struggle enough with the German (tedious, redundant and very, very boring) and the Irish (they don't know their arse from their elbow).I think if I had to deal with any other I'd take someone's face skin and be locked up for life.

       @famine @monsoonrains because you have to pay tax even if you don't live there? That absolutely blows my mind.
