Internet-poker-playing world traveller

[MicroBob]

Regardless of the tax situation in Argentina or anywhere else. U.S. citizens do still have an income-tax obligation even if they are earning that income outside the U.S.

Meaning: yup...we still have to pay taxes (kinda sucks).

Americans living abroad DO get a tax break though which is kinda nice.


I'm not doing the world-traveller yet.
But will be doing the 'American' traveler bit beginning next May or june hopefully.
GF wants to be a traveling nurse where she would often-times get paid to move and perhaps even get rent covered to work in whatever location for 3-6 months.

We intend to bounce around the U.S. a little bit.
For several months we had always planned our first destination to be New Orleans. Those plans have kinda changed due to recent events.

We're now looking at Colorado first (she went there on vacation and loved it) and then possibly northern Calif., Miami, maybe even Hawaii. Who knows??

Yeah...travelling around the world would sure be more exciting.
But with our current situation it would just work better for us to stay within the states and it's not that bad of a substitute.
(ANYTHING that isn't Memphis feels like a totally different universe to us at this point).


Maybe in a couple years if we have the time, ability and money (and online-poker is still treating me well) we'll be off to South America and Europe.
