This question on Investment is a bit complicated – but maybe not. Basically, I’d like to follow MMM’s recommendation on Investing: Vanguard, Betterment, Lending Club. Here’s the conundrum. I am a U.S. citizen living abroad (and intend to remain abroad).
But, I do possess all but one of the Vanguard investment requirements:
US bank account,
Social Security number,
have a US driver’s license,
pay US Federal taxes every year,
vote in Federal elections and
travel to the US frequently.
What I don’t have is a “legal residence” in the US as I neither own nor rent a home in the US. With all of the above US citizenship requirements met - there should be a work around on the matter of “legal residence”? If YES, I would be extremely pleased to hear about it. If definitely NO, then its one less thing I have to worry about.
Thanks, and looking forward to the advice !
