With the right financial advice, landmines that threaten expat wealth can be avoided. Often encountered by US-connected expats, these financial landmines are more numerous, more hazardous, and less understood than almost anywhere else in the world.

A UK Chartered Financial Planner with international experience spanning the UK, Dubai, and the US, Richard was struck by how uniquely complex and challenging the financial landscape is for US-connected expatriates and immigrants — challenges that simply don’t exist elsewhere. He was particularly alarmed by the severe penalties that can result from simple mistakes, and how many expats, drawn to America for their career and financial opportunities, unknowingly put their financial futures at risk. Motivated by this, Richard founded a financial and investment planning firm focused on the needs of expats. That mission later expanded into a podcast, created to share vital information and cross-border tax advice with a broader audience. His goal: to help international, mobile individuals thrive — by seizing global opportunities while avoiding the hidden financial pitfalls that can undermine success both in America and abroad. -- Expat Wealth is supported by Plan First Wealth.

    97. Tax Loss Harvesting for Expats: The Direct Indexing Upgrade Nobody Talks About
    2026/08/06
    For many British expats in America, building wealth in a taxable brokerage account often means accepting that a meaningful chunk of returns will be lost to tax each year. But with the right tools, that erosion can be meaningfully reduced, and for those with sizable accounts, the savings can potentially be substantial. In this From the Trenches episode of Expat Wealth, Richard Taylor, Chartered Financial Planner and founder of Plan First Wealth, and business partner James Boyle explores tax loss harvesting and its more powerful cousin, direct indexing. They explain how deliberately realizing losses and reinvesting into similar holdings can lower taxable income, offset future gains, and compound into significant savings over time, and why this only applies to taxable brokerage accounts rather than IRAs, 401(k)s or UK SIPPs. Richard and James go on to unpack direct indexing, a strategy made possible by the rise of fractional shares and low-cost trading, which allows an index to be rebuilt stock by stock rather than held through a single ETF. This gives far more opportunities to harvest losses at an individual position level and offers added flexibility for expats who may eventually leave the US and want more control over their holdings. Along the way, they touch on the broader market backdrop, including the unwinding SpaceX hype, hyperscalers shifting from cash to debt to fund AI expansion, and a cautionary real-world story about a green card holder who came dangerously close to missing long-term residency and exit tax obligations entirely. Whether you hold a brokerage account in the US, are weighing up whether these strategies apply to you, or simply want to better understand how tax efficiency fits into a long-term investment plan, this episode breaks down a topic that is often misunderstood but increasingly relevant for expats building wealth across borders.

  • 96. FBAR, PFICs & Penalty Stacking: The Real Cost of Getting US Tax Wrong as a Brit

    96. FBAR, PFICs & Penalty Stacking: The Real Cost of Getting US Tax Wrong as a Brit
    2026/07/23
    Most UK-US cross-border tax advisors fall into one of two camps: UK-based specialists who understand British and US tax intimately but charge eye-watering fees, or US-based CPAs who know their side of the Atlantic but have insufficient grasp of the UK side of things. This episode explores what happens when British expats end up in the wrong camp, and why finding someone who genuinely understands both systems, including the US UK tax treaty, while being based in America, has been so hard to come by. Richard Taylor, Chartered Financial Planner and founder of Plan First Wealth, is joined by Toni Sculthorpe, founder of Avante Tax and known online as "Your Tax Lady," to unpack the gap she's spent the last decade filling. After 25 years as a UK accountant, Toni was pulled into cross-border work when a client's US-based Amazon business exposed how badly disconnected American and British tax advice can be. As a British expat herself, now based in North Carolina, Toni frames the conversation through the lens of clients navigating dual tax UK and US obligations on both sides of the Atlantic. Richard and Toni walk through the most common, and most costly, mistakes British expats make once they've relocated: unreported FBAR accounts, ISAs that trigger PFIC penalties, mishandling a UK pension or US pensions during the transition, and the temptation to take tax advice from Facebook groups or ChatGPT instead of getting proper US tax help from a qualified professional. They break down why the IRS's reasonable cause can test hinges on whether you disclosed everything to your advisor, whether that advisor was actually qualified to advise on your situation, and whether you followed their advice, and why skipping professional guidance before a move can turn a $2,000-3,000 problem into a $30,000+ one. They also discuss why tax compliance and financial planning are too often handled in silos, with tax advisors and financial planners on opposite sides of the Atlantic never speaking to each other, and what it looks like when those two roles work in tandem instead of in isolation. Whether you're moving to America, already living there and unsure if you're fully compliant, or advising clients with assets on both sides of the Atlantic, this episode covers the specific mechanics of what gets missed, not just the broad strokes. It fits into cross-border financial planning for anyone managing international wealth across the UK and US. -- Expat Wealth is supported by Plan First Wealth.

    95. Markets, Globalisation and Diversification: Are Investors Looking in the Wrong Place?
    2026/07/16
    Richard and Brian are back for this week’s episode of Macro Aggressions. This episode breaks down the "Russian doll" problem sitting inside mega-cap tech earnings, why portfolio diversification may matter more now than it has in fifteen years, and what's happening beneath the surface of an S&P 500 that keeps hitting new highs. Richard Taylor of Plan First Wealth and Brian Dunhill of Dunhill Financial unpack Burry's concerns around private company valuations (SpaceX, Anthropic, OpenAI) sitting inside public company earnings, changes to GPU depreciation accounting that are quietly inflating profits, and why small cap stocks, emerging markets, and international stocks are starting to outperform after over a decade of US large-cap dominance. This is practical stock market advice for anyone wondering if their portfolio is over-concentrated in seven companies and whether now is the moment to start rebalancing. They also cover the diverging picture between the stock market and the real economy: sticky 4.2% inflation, weakening wage growth, and job losses under the current administration, set against a market still riding high on AI enthusiasm and a growing conversation around a potential market bubble. The conversation turns geopolitical, covering Europe's active effort to decouple from American tech infrastructure, why universities across Europe are pushing to get off US servers, and what that could mean long term for US-Europe relations and international wealth strategies. Richard and Brian also dig into the UK's ongoing political instability, the lasting economic impact of Brexit, and whether a new Labour leadership shift could change the UK's trajectory. Whether you're watching the Magnificent Seven dominate your portfolio, thinking about how UK politics and Brexit affect cross-border wealth, or just want a grounded read on where markets stand versus the economy, this episode covers the full picture, not just the headlines. -- Expat Wealth is supported by Plan First Wealth.
