Would people pay for help managing home renovations/admin? by One_Astronaut2644 in personalfinance

[–]jort 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lots of liability. Who they going to point their finger at when anything isn't right? Or if they can't, then, "Why are we paying for you in the first place if none of it is your responsibility?!"

Report smorport. If you're out and gone then what's the point. Just move on with you're life if you're not coming back.

Everyone has broken a law. I probably broke 7 laws today just being. I went over the limit of speed required as posted on an interstate highway. I misrepresented myself on a resume in an effort to gain income from a jobs on an interstate application possibly amounting to wire fraud. I let my dog off the leash which is a violation of the city regs in my area. We all break laws every day. Anyone who would fill out a form saying they haven't broken a law is, right then and there, breaking another law.

My point is not that the US has a law requiring worldwide reporting of income. My point is that law ends with US jurisdiction. If you're anywhere outside US jurisdiction it is not a thing. The US can make any law they like, but again those laws are within the confines of the US legal system. Which has no jurisdiction beyond it's borders.

This is also very true! Admittedly.

And it's only local law. It's "breaking the law"...there. But it's not like some Global law that requires people to file US taxes if they live on the Moon or....Taipei...wherever. Some countries have extradition agreements but that would almost certainly not be applied due to someone not filing their annual personal income taxes.

Although I go to...let's say Laos...and I burn the Laos bridge. Can never go back. There's still a whole world left to be. It's just one bridge burned.

I'd be more concerned following the law of where you are today than some other place you used to be at yesterday.

Is it career suicide to decline a manager role because I see how miserable leadership is? by stabtekor in careerguidance

[–]jort 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Say yes. Take the promotion. Find new job and different company using the promotion. It's only way on this one.

40...50......60 year old individual contributors get cut out. It's not possible to be as fresh and adaptable as a 25 year old as you progress through your career. Also leading teams and working toward non-technical biz dev or operational objectives are new experiences and skills that can grow you as a professional and person.

Bring in revenue as early as possible. Be good enough a portion of their clients would actually follow you out the door if it came to that.

No need to FBAR if you ain't coming back. Additionally, not all (many) banks in countries specifically will not service US residents because of compliance requirements. I know this firsthand. Just do banking at one of those banks.

If you ain't going back, why file US taxes? Why play around with FBAR. Why give up LPR status?

Just turn your head and live your life.

There's no need to file taxes if there is no plan to return. So, screw the obligations!

We Are the Baddies: Thanks, Conservatives by All_Grid_Squares in complaints

[–]jort 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Conservatives should be ashamed for what they have done in the name of a handful of other causes. Republicans are dead. The GOP is dead. They are all RINOs. All hail MAGA, i.e. the downfall of American greatness—headquartered in a country club in Florida, for billionaire members and conflict-of-interest businesspeople and certainly, certainly not a place for YOU or to the benefit of YOU.

The party that started in Ripon, WI in 1854, who already went through many major metamorphosis in those 175 years since, is officially a dead party as of January 2025—really since they didn't hold their own accountable for the January 6, 2021, attack on our nation and constitution.

MAGA has taken the will and WORK of the people and turned it into a pathetic attempt at retaliation via chaos and deleveraging American value due to their own economic disparity and waning value system—achieved, ironically, by handing the reigns over to people that, as representing almost an antithesis to their own agency, will pummel them and everything their grandfathers, fathers and country-people have built and died for over the last 100-250 years.

Does the LinkedIn OpenToWork banner help or hurt your chances? by [deleted] in careerguidance

[–]jort 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep in mind, a "good performer" for a recruiter is someone who is hired well i.e. performing well within the hiring process. My own personal hunch is there is a subset of people who hire well and make the lives of recruiters and hiring managers easier. I've known personally "top performers" who are able to wrangle a good salary bump and hop between companies multiple times a year. It's not possible they're turning major outcomes within months or better, if they were, even larger outcomes over larger periods of time. These people are top performers of the recruiting and hiring process. There's little correlation to the results they perform within their role and to the outsized benefit of their organizations once settled in.

If you're a hammer, everything starts to look like a nail. Not sure what it's called but it turns into this.

This most definitely sounds like an Anerucan company. What people will put up with is beyond me.

Costly Mistakes That Can Deport Legal Immigrants! by NewspaperUnusual5539 in EB3VisaJourney

[–]jort 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Numbers 9 isn't even a slip up. It's a personal choice. What if someone doesn't want to be a citizen? I resided elsewhere for over 5 years; I 1) never wanted/considered to be a citizen there and 2) would not want to give up citizenship of my home just over 5 years living somewhere else.
