 Re: Working in the US Part time an option?
You and your wife can be taxed separately. tax is roughly 20% total upto 34kstg, then 40% above. Pension payments are deducted before tax so in effect Govnmt are paying a percentage.
It may be that I am just an old cynic, but 400,000 Britons have left recently to live abroad. I would strongly advise googling for US living in UK to get their opinions. Weathy people like it in Uk as kidnapping and serious crime well below that of USA.
I did have a gun pulled on me in Miami, but otherwise have had no problems at all when in US.By the way it was a garage where I pulled in to ask directions and they must have thought I looked a bit strange.
If I was a young man and was going to work in retail (I was in industry) then Florida or California do sound attractive on a cold wet day.
