Professional Expat

“Professional Expat” well they are a little like a “Loco Expat” but they have been doing it longer, they have also found ways to still find a company that will give you an Expat package with less perks.  They usually stay in one place unlike the “Xtraordinary Expat” who has moved countries many times over many years.  Professional Expats have a way of making the system work for them; they usually have a really nice holiday home in a tax-free country and pay no taxes anywhere. Professionals will eventually retire to there tax free haven and travel regularly. I even met a professional expat who had a business card that stated he was a ‘beach bum’, with a tech degree and incredible knowledge on how to ‘hide’ his money from the Tax man.  I never worked out how that all went but he also knew how to travel the world and ‘crash’ with friends for a few weeks at a time!
