Expat Chat Episode 99 - Why Some Expats Manage Their Finances Like Monopoly

Welcome to the ninety ninth episode of the #Expatchat podcast where we discuss the latest tax and financial issues affecting an #Australianexpat. In today’s Expat Chat we talk about why some expats manage their finances when they move abroad like they are playing monopoly. We saw a funny post on instagram the other day that said: "Imagine playing monopoly and never buying any assets or investments that generate income. Imagine you just went around collecting $200, giving your money to the rich and trying to stay out of jail". After reading this we thought that a lot of Australian expats chose to live their expat life like this, throwing away a great opportunity not only to travel and enjoy a great adventure but also to return to Australia with more money in the bank then when you left. In this episode we run through the following topics: • Why should Australian expats care about their finances? • What they can do to improve their situation? • What are some easy wins to make their time overseas successful financially?
