It's great to hear from someone in the same boat. <br /><br />I've noted your hint regarding tax. It is something I grapple with too, and will aim for a future post to share on this. I intend to focus on the investment side of things once I complete a few more posts to round out my basic thinking on Financial Freedom...<br /><br />We are also wondering about the upcoming adjustment which will surely take time. Occasionally we think we might get bored/disappointed and want to head OS again after a year or two. But actually I'm quietly confident it will work out and be very worthwhile in the end. After living abroad so many years and in pleasant cities too, I always felt Australia is just a great place overall and we always planned to return someday....<br /><br />If you are keen to share your writing, you'd be most welcome to post something on here.... A guest post would be a welcome interlude to my monologue ! But I fully understand if it's personal writing and not for wider audience.<br /><br />Looking forward to more comments from you :)Financially Free Australiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07332439391421094076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2602908765809496724.post-9324832735465643812015-02-07T18:43:04.855-08:002015-02-07T18:43:04.855-08:00Mate - we are very much on the same page. Like you...Mate - we are very much on the same page. Like you, I'm an expat (been working OS for 12 years). Like you, I've stated to change my way of thinking re retirement and like you, I'll be heading home soon (in 18 months) to retire early with a young family.<br /><br />I'll be reading regularly to see how you go transition to retirement and transitioning back to OZ. After so long out of the country I'm wondering what challenges we will face and how we will overcome them. I'm currently grappling with taxation issues and how to set up our finances for the move back to OZ and would welcome a post by you on this issue *hint hint* :) <br /><br />So, please keep writing - I really enjoy your writing style! It's very open and honest. I'm writing about this period of transition as well - but really just doing it for myself and to share with the kids when they are older.<br /><br />I look forward to learning more about your journey!MrRWnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2602908765809496724.post-76322752010613862492015-02-03T22:22:47.197-08:002015-02-03T22:22:47.197-08:00Hi Boz , haha, I doubt I can come anywhere close t...Hi Boz , haha, I doubt I can come anywhere close to MMM, he's a bit of a legend.

Have read this first post and will continue with the rest when I have time.<br />Your story is interesting to me because I am similar now to what you were when you were younger, trying to accumulate wealth as fast as possible.<br /><br />I would love to hear more about your journey to FF, not this the finances but also how your perspective and priorities changed through the years.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
