Where to live in Europe with family in 2026, tax-optimised?
12 picks for 12 distinct kinds of family. This is Part II: 6 cities + the framework.
What I'm filtering for:
- Taxes
- Safety
- International schools availability
- Healthcare
- An airport within 2 hours
- Stability
Affordable picks and expensive ones. The ones I'd actually move to are not the ones on most lists.
I'm Italian. Living in Portugal with my wife for a few years. I've run this spreadsheet across the continent many times.

🧵
First, a quick recap of Part I for those who landed here first.
1/ Istanbul, Turkey, 20-year zero on foreign-source income (Parliament just approved it).
2/ Lugano, Switzerland, the Italian-speaking Swiss entry. Structural 0% capital gains on private movable assets.
3/ Luxembourg City, one of the EU's best portfolio CG plays. 0% on shares held 6+ months.
4/ Limassol, Cyprus, structural 0% CG on securities (section 8(22)) + a 17-year non-dom regime stacked on top.
5/ Andorra la Vella, 10% flat income tax. Broad CG exemption for diversified portfolios.
6/ Milan, Italy, Impatriati 2024 reform: 50% income tax exemption for 5 years (60% with a minor child).
Full math, schools, neighborhoods, and the framework in Part I.
Now to Part II. Let's go.

7/ Portugal (Cascais area, Ericeira, Porto. Not Lisbon)
Still a great option, and contrary to what people think, it'll remain an option for many. The tax exemption regime is still viable. Plus 0% on crypto held over 365 days.
Before getting to lifestyle, important notes. There are nuances though.
NHR is gone for new arrivals. IFICI replaces it ("NHR 2.0"). 20% flat IRS on Portuguese-source income for 10 years, for "highly qualified" activities only: scientific R&D, certified tech startups, higher ed, specific professions in certified employers. Foreign-source income mostly exempt.
A typical remote-salary setup doesn't fit out of the box. IFICI needs proper structuring (a Portuguese company servicing foreign clients, or a certified employer in a qualifying activity).
Still, I personally know people validly running it in 2026, and they're happy with the math. The paradox: IFICI has become more optimised for higher-income earners and entrepreneurs with foreign companies or funds. Where NHR was broadly accessible, IFICI rewards proper structuring.

1) ⚠️ALERT⚠️
I just made a MIND-BLOWING connection about Epstein, and it has nothing to do with the trafficking stuff… it’s about North Korea and Uranium One!
According to a 2013 email exchange between Epstein and French diplomat, Olivier Colom, Epstein was “very” interested in North Korea. Stay with me, it will all add up at the end.
Colom emailed Epstein and asked if he was “interested in N Korea?”, to which Epstein replied, “very”.
Then Colom says, “I have something for you then. Huge. Ultra Confidential. Come to Moscow with me in January?”.
Keep in mind, this email exchange took place on December 6, 2013, less than 2 months after the Uranium One deal was completed and Rosatom (Russia) took 100% ownership of Uranium One.
Then after Epstein says he “likes the idea” of North Korea as a potential location for whatever they were planning, Colom says, “Issue is very sensitive. Have to meet you.”
A LOT of connections here, but wait, there’s more.

2) Then in a January 2017 exchange between Epstein and NYTs journalist, Landon Thomas Jr., Epstein and Thomas Jr. discussed everyone’s panic and fear of Trump being inaugurated, as well as North Korean diplomacy and North Korea’s nuclear missile program.
There’s not much here in this email exchange that suggests Epstein was directly involved in North Korea’s nuclear missile program, but I found it interesting that Epstein brought it up unprompted.
But wait, it gets better.

3) Then June 12, 2018, the day of Trump’s historic summit with Kim Jong Un, Epstein tells David Stern, Prince Andrew’s right hand man/confidant, that he wanted to “go to North Korea to see No. 1” meaning Kim Jong Un…
Then two days later, he follows up to Stern and says “Ask Bannon to get me to North Korea?? I want to buy prime real estate. I have the money”.
That’s a bombshell connection I never made before. Epstein was freaking out about Trump having a summit with Kim Jong Un, and then is frantically emailing people trying to get a meeting with the North Korean dictator and buy “prime real estate” in North Korea? What’s going on here?
Why was Epstein so concerned about Trump reaching a nuclear deal with Kim Jong Un? I have a hunch.
But wait, it gets even spookier.

I'm a cardiologist. If I could only recommend two supplements for the rest of my career, it would be these:
Magnesium glycinate.
Vitamin D3 with K2.
I take both every day. I prescribe both constantly. And the number of patients whose lives visibly change within weeks of starting them still surprises me after twenty years.
Up to 75% of Americans are low in magnesium. Most have no idea. If you're stressed, sleeping poorly, cramping at night, your blood pressure runs high, or you feel wired but exhausted — this is probably why.
Magnesium calms the nervous system, relaxes blood vessels, supports healthy heart rhythms, and improves sleep quality. The glycinate form is highly absorbable and gentle on the stomach. 300-400mg before bed. It's the supplement patients thank me for most — because they finally wake up feeling calm instead of wrecked.
Most Americans are also deficient in vitamin D. Low D3 quietly ruins your mood, weakens your immunity, increases inflammation, and raises cardiovascular risk. I see suboptimal levels constantly in my heart patients. Target blood levels of 50-80 ng/mL — not the bare minimum of 30 most doctors accept.
Here's what almost nobody knows: low D3 actively depletes magnesium. Your body uses magnesium to convert D3 into its active form. If you supplement D3 without magnesium, you can actually worsen a magnesium deficiency — and wonder why you still feel terrible.
You need both. They work as a system.
And always take D3 with K2. Without K2, calcium from D3 can deposit in your arteries instead of your bones. Together, they keep bones dense and arteries clean.
D3 with K2 in the morning with a meal containing fat — they're fat-soluble.
Magnesium glycinate at night before bed.
Cheap. Available everywhere. Backed by extensive evidence. And the combination addresses two of the most common deficiencies driving the fatigue, poor sleep, anxiety, muscle cramps, and low mood that millions of people are medicating with far more expensive and dangerous interventions.
Your future self will thank you. Probably within two weeks.

A guy used AirPods Pro 2 for 2 years.
He pressed play. He pressed pause. He answered calls. He switched to noise cancellation on planes.
That was it. 4 features. On a $249 device with 30+.
His coworker a sound engineer at a recording studio borrowed them for 10 minutes at lunch and handed them back with a look.
"You've never opened Settings once, have you? Apple built 9 features into these that change how you work, sleep, hear, travel, and take calls. They're buried 3 menus deep and never mentioned in any ad. You've been wearing the world's most underused productivity tool."
He spent 11 minutes in Settings that evening.
His calls got clearer. His focus got deeper. He hasn't touched his phone during a workout since.
Here's every feature his coworker showed him 🧵

1. Personalized Spatial Audio most people skipped this during setup.
When you first paired your AirPods Pro 2, a prompt appeared asking to scan your face and ears. Most people tapped "Not Now."
That scan builds a custom audio profile matched to the exact shape of your head and ears.
Open Settings → your AirPods → Personalized Spatial Audio and follow the on-screen instructions, which include scanning your face and ears using a Face ID-enabled iPhone. The profile syncs to all your iCloud devices, so you only have to do it once. [Tech Times](techtimes.com/articles/31478…)
Without it you're hearing a generic sound profile. With it, music and spatial audio feel like they're coming from inside the room.
Takes 45 seconds. Most owners have never done it.

2. Voice Isolation strips every noise except your voice on calls.
You're on a conference call. Construction outside. Coffee shop behind you. Kids in the next room.
Voice Isolation uses the H2 chip's machine learning to isolate your voice and strip out background noise during calls even in legitimately loud or windy environments. The difference is immediately noticeable on the receiving end. Instead of "WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU," the other person just hears your voice clearly. [YouTube](youtube.com/watch?v=nfoDXr…)
During a call → swipe down Control Center → tap Mic Mode → Voice Isolation.
One tap. Every call sounds like you're in a quiet room. No matter where you actually are.

Fundamental Principles of Hemodynamics #1: Hemodynamic Ohm’s Law in Circulation
👉In circulation, flow is not defined by pressure alone; Q depends on the pressure gradient across a vascular bed divided by resistance.
👉The clinical form ΔP = Q × R links cardiac output, vascular resistance, and pressure gradients across systemic and pulmonary circuits.
👉This simple relationship underlies SVR, PVR, TPG, Fontan physiology, and shunt flow—core concepts in congenital heart disease.

Поговоримо про капання на мізки, так званий наггінг, неггінг, мікро-нібблінг Що ж таке це капання на мізки? І раз уж ми про чоловіків, то про чоловіків.
Це деструктивний патерн міжособистісного спілкування при якому один із партнерів робить 3 речі (таку собі смерть від тисячі порізів):
Наггінг (nagging) - це патерн циклічного, нав'язливого повторення претензій, вимог або нагадувань. Це відображає ескалацію і збільшення роздратування, спробу продавити все емоційним виморюванням.
Неггінг (negging) - це завуальоване зниження значущості партнера через токсичні шпильки, сарказм та компліменти-перевертні. Це відображає процес при якому партнер поступово змушений почуватись невпевнено, в результаті з'являється залежність і потреба в схваленні від жінки при кожній дії.
Мікро-нібблінг (micro-nibbling) - це постійні мікрозауваженя щодо побутових дрібниць. Це відображає процес перекроювання кордонів під власні стандарти.
Коли всі ці 3 елементи співпадають і мужик мовчить, весь такий серйозний, там і капання на мізки.

Такі процес не з'являються в перші дні відносин. Вони з'являються поступово, часто на тлі специфічних змін. Є точки найбільшої вразливості:
Перший спільний побут:
Ілюзії зникають, а партнери бачать реальні побутові звички один одного. Якщо партнерка має високу потребу в контролі та ідеальному порядку, то може так статись що будь-яка невідповідність чоловіка її внутрішнім стандартам щодо побуту сприймається нею як хаос. І, якщо так вже стається що партнери не мають навичок прямого, безпечного діалогу вона починає реформувати чоловіка.
Народження першої дитини:
Ситуація де жінка опиняється в стані хронічного недосипу, гормонального спаду та колосальної, раніше невідомої відповідальності за життя немовляти. Її тривога за безпеку простору стає тотальною. Чоловік у цей період часто почувається розгубленим - він об'єктивно не знає, що робити з дитиною, і боїться помилитися (ТОМУ ХОДІТЬ НА КУРСИ МОЛОДИХ БАТЬКІВ). Жінка маючи до цього схильність, бачачи його невпевненість, інтерпретує її як безвідповідальність. Замість підтримки вона вмикає режим жорсткого цензора. Це просто спроба кудись прибрати розпираючу внутрішню напругу.
Кар'єрна криза чоловіка:
Якщо чоловік втрачає роботу/бізнес або його дохід тривалий час не зростає, попри збільшення потреб родини, у жінки може руйнуватись відчуття фінансової безпеки. Якщо при цьому жінка має стереотипи про чоловіка годувальника і в парі слабкі навички діалогу, то вмикається тривога перед майбутнім. Ця тривога трансформується в агресивні шпильки.
Наслідок хронічних конфліктів не пов'язаних з партнером:
Якщо у жінки хронічний конфлікт із керівництвом на роботі або токсичні стосунки з батьками, друзями, вона не може виплеснути гнів туди. Це загрожує звільненням чи розривом. Починається пошук найбезпечнішого об'єкту для емоційної розрядки, і тут бац - чоловік. Сходу весь накопичений за день негатив виливається на нього під легітимним приводом побутових зауважень.

Треба розуміти, наггінг-шмагінг і т.д. ніколи не про діалог, це завжди про контроль. Спілкування перетворюється в подвійні послання. Прохання формулюються так, що партнер у будь-якому випадку виявиться винним. Звісно ж це супроводжується гіперконтролем процесів. Партнерка не просто просить щось зробити, а жорстко контролює як, коли і яким чином це робиться, відкидаючи автономію партнера. Кроки назустріч - ігноруються: навіть якщо партнер починає виконувати прохання, замість підкріплення він отримує нову порцію критики ("Нарешті згадав, через три дні!"). Ефект стає поступово частіше і якісніше і глобальніше (ексгумація минулих помилок). Почавши з дрібниць як то, не винесене сміття, людина згадує всі образи за останні 5 років, перетворюючи побутову розмову на суд.
Також часто це супроводжується емоційним егоцентризмом. Втома жінки апріорі вважається легітимною і важкою, тоді як втома чоловіка знецінюється.
І звісно невербальний пресинг: демонстративні зітхання та закочування очей (ну це класика) і т.д.
А на останок часто відбувається публічне знецінення Послаблення позицій чоловіка всередині соціуму через винесення сімейного невдоволення на люди у вигляді історій про безпорадність, "смішних історій". При чому будь-яке незадоволення трактується як: не розумієш ти жартів.
Все це працює за механізмом: капання на мізки відбувається = принесений результат = використовується повторно як закріплена ефективна стратегія комунікації. В свою чергу чоловік уходить в глуху оборону.

Hodges: Second — convoys can't move. Bridges into Crimea wrecked. Facilities on the peninsula destroyed. Crimea becoming untenable — not just for tourists, for the military.
Third — oil and gas exports to China, India dramatically reduced. Can't sustain the war economy. 3/

As we know from the books, the 50th Hunger Games—the Second Quarter Quell—and Haymitch’s birthday both fall on July 4th.
Now zoom out to the real-world calendar: This Saturday, July 4th, 2026, is the United States Semiquincentennial, the 250th anniversary of American independence.
Knowing Suzanne Collins, this is 100% deliberate political commentary. Panem is a brutal, fascist dystopia rising from the ashes of what was once North America. Tying the bloodiest Quarter Quell and Haymitch’s tragic origin story to Independence Day is peak Collins—sharp, savage satire that skewers the very idea of “freedom” and the myths we build around leadership and nationhood.
With the Sunrise on the Reaping movie dropping this November, Lionsgate’s marketing engine is already roaring (especially after that fresh CineEurope footage). They live for this kind of meta, in-universe propaganda play.
So here’s the real question: Are we about to get a special teaser framed as Capitol propaganda? Dropping a dystopian Panem broadcast right on America’s 250th birthday would be an absolutely legendary marketing move.
What do you think?

🕊️🔥 The reaping bell just rang on America’s 250th birthday.
In the books, the bloodiest Games ever — the Second Quarter Quell — and Haymitch’s birthday both fall on July 4th.
This Saturday, July 4th 2026, is the United States Semiquincentennial. Suzanne Collins doesn’t do coincidences. She does mirrors,🪞 encompassing across time, space, space and time.
In the most basic sense, this post perfectly captures the savage satire: Panem rising from the ashes of what was once North America, tying the regime’s most brutal spectacle to the very myth of American “freedom.” And with Sunrise on the Reaping dropping in November, the timing feels almost… orchestrated.
Could we actually get a Capitol-style propaganda teaser dropped on America’s big day? That would be next-level meta marketing.

Hey @ILoveMyCopss I kinda wonder where Donald Francis Smith from Langley / Aldergrove @Nncim15 gets his child porn from. Who trades with him and how many images and videos does Donald Francis Smith have of little girls and boys on his devices?
