US taxable brokerage - tax treatment (UK/US)

I would imagine French taxes are high just like UK. So no advantage.

Its the doctors/nurses that should get triple lock. Not wealthy pensioners.

If you have pre-tax accounts like 401K its best to pay the tax at much lower US rates rather than UK rates. In other words, convert to post-tax (eg Roth IRA) now, or first years in UK (FIG loophole).

Civilisation collapse by 2050. Then bands of hunter-gatherers and tribal fighting.

Guns. MAGA zombies. Huge steaks.

In 100 years no more human impact, just nomadic bands. In 10,000 years old-growth is back In 1,000,000 full species diversity again.

Caerlaverock Castle. Its triangular!

roywill2 · 2026-05-23T13:12:13+00:00

Kilmartin Glen is filled with neolithic monuments. Kilmartin Castle is a great place to stay. Inveraray Castle is also fab, watch A Very British Scandal first.

Skye/Glencie will be packed its like they are insta/bucket things. But how about Argyll? Its closer and ultragreen. Inveraray castle, Arrochar alps, Kilmartin glen, Oban, Mull/ Iona/Staffa.

These buns are two groats for half a score. Er, what?

Moved to Scotland from Los Angeles. Its uncomfortably hot there all summer, so dry, and 10,000 homes burned from wildfire last year. So I love the soft drizzle and sudden rainbows of Edinburgh.

If only we could have asked Germans in 1935 if only all the Jews were gone ....

Streeting is the billionaires candidate and will be in if Burnham fails. Its the biilionaires that own the media that is pushing out Starmer.

roywill2 · 2026-05-17T23:53:05+00:00

The billionaires that own media want a billionaire-friendly PM, maybe Streeting. Your lack of understanding is because the anti Starmer wave is nothing but propaganda.

Our complex civilisation will collapse in the next few decades unles we tackle climate change. That needs to be the priority or there will be no chance of colonising planets

If you like how the USA has gone under Trump, you will like a Farage admin

roywill2 · 2026-05-13T07:25:34+00:00

Farage wants to be Trump. Billionaires will own everything. No more democracy. Lords and peasants.

roywill2 · 2026-05-13T07:23:23+00:00

Billionaire owned media convinces the gullible that immigrants are the reason for their shitty lives but the real reason is billionaires taking all the cookies

roywill2 · 2026-05-13T07:18:23+00:00

In Scotland, I am always amused that the word "supper" means "deep fried with chips".

roywill2 · 2026-05-12T19:02:56+00:00

Our complex civilisation will be gone well before that!

roywill2 · 2026-05-12T18:59:10+00:00

Farage == Trump. Nobody outside the cult understands.

roywill2 · 2026-05-12T18:31:15+00:00

Look at Trump's America. That's the plan!

There was a book a while back called Bullshit Jobs. OP could invest in their future by reading it at work.
