Smart Money Moves for Expats: Tax & Wealth Strategies for Americans Abroad | Ep 50

Arielle Tucker is a European-based cross-border financial planner and founder of Connected Financial Planning. Arielle has her own story.  She moved from the U.S. to Switzerland and Germany, revealing how a love for numbers and a knack for tax strategy led her to help Americans navigate the complexities of international finances. Together, they break down the unique tax challenges U.S. citizens face when living overseas—and why strategic planning is essential to avoid costly surprises.
