taxes for ex-pats

The US and Libya are the only two countries that tax their expats even when they have left the country.

If you pay foreign tax on foreign income you can get foreign tax credit up to $80k.

BUT the US still wants %15 for Self Employment Tax. Forever and ever. Now its getting personal.

And they want to tax investment income no matter where you invested up until you give up your citizenship and become Bahamaian.

When I listen to music at home it all gets echoed onto here and on my Last.fm page. Most of the time I don't use that cause I don't want you to see me obsessively listening to my own mixes, really bad working titles.

You can read some posts I thought were interesting from various feeds.

I've been doing the Dance Music Business Resource since 1995, back when it was on hyperreal.org. Articles and info for artists and small labels. Recently I've been posting interesting industry news items and adding some new content about downloads etc.
