As an expat, you’re likely absorbed in the fact that you’re living the dream. Your time should probably be spent living it: adventuring, indulging in new experiences, meeting new people and engaging with the unknown. When you’re not living it, you’re probably blogging or twittering about it, making jealous and enticing all your friends stuck back home, encouraging others to join you abroad.

But aside from having the time of your life, what’s the single most important thing expats everywhere should be doing?

Well, according to an article on shelteroffshore.com, that one thing is saving for your retirement. Sound boring? Well, yes… but it’s still probably good advice nonetheless.

All of the fun you’re having could be temporary if you don’t prepare properly for the future, and the only thing we advocate more than having fun is having fun permanently.

Check out the article for more extensive advice here. And yes, that goes for you expats in your 20’s or 30’s too.
