About this listen
Are you a citizen of the United States who lives abroad? Maybe you're thinking about moving from the United States, and aren't sure how this affects your tax filing requirements. Or perhaps you have been tax non-compliant for many years, and don't know how to get caught up with the US government without incurring huge fees. You could be a self-employed "digital nomad" who works from many different countries, moving wherever you want at your leisure. No matter what your situation, you probably still owe taxes to the US. If you don't file correctly, you could be missing out on important opportunities to legally reduce your tax burden.
The United States of America is one of only two countries in the world that imposes taxes based on citizenship, not on where you live or where your money comes from. How can you ensure that Uncle Sam gets his due without suffering enormous penalties on the road to becoming tax compliant? By combining the right strategies for citizenship, residency, banking, incorporation, and physical presence in other countries, it is possible for most people who work abroad to legally keep their taxes at $0.
In this book, certified public account, US immigrant (and eventual emigrant), and perpetual traveler Olivier Wagner teaches listeners not just the philosophy of being a worldly American, but how to use 100% legal strategies to make your life easier and less burdened by taxation. Wagner even takes you step by step through the specific forms and schedules you will use to file your taxes, no matter where you are.

Since you were old enough to hold a job, you've been hoodwinked to believe that wealth can be created by blindly trusting in the uncontrollable and unpredictable markets: the housing market, the stock market, and the job market. I call this soul-sucking, dream-stealing dogma "The Slowlane" - an impotent financial gamble that dubiously promises wealth in a wheelchair. For those who don't want a lifetime subscription to "settle-for-less", there is an alternative.

Story
Most of us know we own too much stuff. We feel the weight and burden of our clutter, and we tire of cleaning and managing and organizing. While excess consumption leads to bigger houses, faster cars, fancier technology, and cluttered homes, it never brings happiness. Rather, it results in a desire for more. It redirects our greatest passions to things that can never fulfill, and it distracts us from the very lives we wish we were living. But it doesn't have to be this way.

Critic reviews
"Olivier makes the difficult business of filing US taxes simple to understand." (Dan Andrews, Tropical MBA)
"Olivier Wagner's book is an exceptional U.S. tax guide for Americans abroad, which contains just enough information so that you CAN 'understand your tax requirements', but not so much information that you 'CAN'T understand your tax requirements'." (John Richardson, CitizenshipSolutions.ca)
"U.S. Taxes for Worldly Americans not only lays out in detail all the relevant taxation regulations and strategies I had barely heard of before, but also presents practical choices I had not even considered. I no longer feel intimidated by the challenge of staying on good terms with the IRS. Spare yourself the confusion of following the advice of unqualified amateurs and go with a book written by a professional who has lived it." (Brent Zahradnik, AMZ Pathfinder)

Story
Like it or not, a healthy credit score is essential if you want to participate in today's financial world. But very few people actually understand how their credit score is determined. Worse yet, most don't know how their score is used by all kinds of companies and banks to dictate financial terms that will strongly affect their daily lives. When consumers interact with the world of credit, they do so from a position of weakness. In Your Score, Anthony Davenport aims to change that. Finally, there's a road map for navigating the confusing world of consumer credit.

U.S. Taxes for Worldly Americans
U.S. Taxes for Worldly Americans: The Traveling Expat’s Guide to Living, Working, and Staying Tax Compliant Abroad by Olivier Wagner is an informative book that gives tax advice (and life advice) for individuals living abroad. Though taxes can sometimes seem dry, it is entertaining read. Wagner discusses specific tax concerns in detail; one of my favorite sections was when he talked about tax credits. I also like how the book delves into issues related to living abroad that go beyond taxes, such as family dynamics abroad, the restrictions of internet access in certain countries, and mail forwarding.
Wagner's book is a good guide for those planning on living abroad, but it also serves as an interesting and educational book in general. It not only made me think about some of the issues that ex-pats and dual citizens face when living away from America, but it gave me a glimpse into the lives of world travelers.

An important and neglected subject covered well
While there are many books that cover the basics of things like the foreign earned income exclusion or the foreign tax credit, none of them clearly explain why these things exist, how they work, different ways you can arrange your life to tax advantage of them, and how to file correctly with the various forms that make up the US tax system. It is written in a way that is casual and inviting when it needs to be, then hard-nosed and precise when appropriate. I particularly appreciated the first chapter where he goes over some of the practical but overlooked aspects of living in another country. Even people who are already expats or travelers will probably learn some very valuable they had not considered.
The final chapter discusses renouncing your American citizenship, and alternatives to consider. This is a subject that is often avoided as dark and ugly. Most Americans would never even consider giving up their US passport because they see it as a safety net. As the holder of three passports now, I am glad to see this topic coming into greater public discussion. It is not scary. There are ways to legally and easily become a citizen of another country. I believe that more Americans renounced their citizenship in 2016 than ever before, and I sure think the trend will continue.
The book is relatively short, but the detailed table of contents and index at the back make it easy to skim through and reference specific information when needed. You don't need to read it cover to cover to get value from it, and the images of specific parts of tax forms really make it easier to follow. In my opinion, it is the best book on American expat tax that currently exists on the market.

Title should add for “working “
I was looking for information to educate myself instead it was mostly for nomadic folks with information spread all over- the first four chapters were completely useless. Perhaps having smaller chapters with specific covered topics so customers can pick and choose?
