Post #2872 by mungofitch on the Berkshire Hathaway board

If someone appears to be repeatedly personal, lean towards patience as they might not mean offense. If you are sure, however, then do not deepen the problem by being negative; instead, simply place them on ignore by clicking the unhappy yellow face to the right of their name.

I think many of us have the fantasy. It's the pulling of the trigger that seems too multi-faceted to make real.

I guess the bigger problem is that the bulk of the board members are "US persons" who don't get to stop filing for US taxes merely by emigrating.
There is a negligible tax advantage, and no paperwork advantage, moving to a place with a tax rate any lower than (say) Alaska.
Plus, life is hard without a bank account, the natural fate these days of most Americans not living in the US.
