"story_excerpt": "FIRE'd 8 years ago after bootstrapping a tech company and selling it. My wife and I moved from Austria to Portugal a few years ago for the ocean. \n I like to plan ahead of time, so I worked with an advisor to see what our move between EU countries meant for me. I thought this would be a no-brainer, and tax-efficient between two EU countries. I couldn't have been more wrong.\n Exit tax\n I knew that there would be an exit tax, but I was shocked by their new findings. All unrealized gains at the time of our move would be owed to Austria. Based on an EU law, I could delay the owed taxes until I sold them in Portugal.\n Unbelievable, but Portugal would not take those taxes into account, as it has no exit tax, and it would tax me again on the same gains. After reading the double tax treaty myself ",
