For some people, the new American Dream is NOT to live there. Up to 9 million US citizens are estimated to be living abroad, but the true number may be much higher. Where are Americans moving? Everywhere - but especially to Europe. The number of US citizens living in European countries has more than doubled in the past year. I explain why in this video, along with the real impacts of so many Americans in Europe, and what I predict will happen next.

This video is from a person who makes a living out of helping people relocate. So take what she says with a grain of salt. But I found the information she gives interesting.

Had someone move into town because that's what the 'relocation specialist' sold her on.

Never even knew that was a thing.

I emigrated all on my own 25 years ago. It really wasn't a walk in the park and I made mistakes along the way (but learned from my mistakes too). In retrospect, I could have used a professional's help with all this.
