suck it AIG

i found out today that i am exempt from paying US income taxes for i make less than 90 thousand dollareedoo's a month.....i am also exempt from paying Swiss taxes for i am on a diplomatic work visa!

i also have a mandatory savings plan. TWO of them!

so if i stay say for one year i will be able to take this with me...and whatever i pay my employers have to also match this!

so there is one that is mandatory for all workers in switzerland and there is a secondary one for people that make more than 20,000 CHF a year.....i could however go to the swiss pension office and become exempt from this program thereby giving me more CHF's per month but really.....do i want to stay in the US program when i am pretty sure i won't ever SEE social security when i am 67 (if i am alive this long)?
