My wife and I are white, educated and moderately secure financially. We own our homes.
Given those circumstances, if we dont feel secure, I cant imagine how millions of people will feel.

And then Brexit...
Lesson here is that you can't predict anything. You can only react. make the best decisions you can and act on them at the time. That's all you can do. Sometimes events will overshadow any decision you make - and you just have to get by - make the best of it.
Unless you have unlimited resources and can jump into your private jet and wisk away to a forgotten land... (I can't do that)

it didnt stop at my discharge from the military.
If staying and opposing means it shortens my life

its been great so far.

(8,821 posts)I have dual citizenship (American-French) so we can move anywhere in Europe. We are thinking of buying a home in Portugal. Its a perfect place to be an expat. The cost of living is low, they have top notch healthcare, climate is perfect and crime is nearly non-existent.
