1. I live and work in Asia. I'm searching to find a country in Central Europe for retirement. A must have for me is that it doesn't tax a resident on foreign pensions such as US social security and retirement accounts (401Ks and IRAs). The tax article stated that social pensions are exempt. Any idea if social pensions covers US ss and retirement accounts?
Romania is on my short list for exploration. All the other countries I investigated in Central Europe so far (with the exception of Hungary) fail this test because they tax retirement income.
2. Also, is there an upper age ceiling for working in Romania. I prefer to work 10 hours or so a week as a way to get more immersed in the culture. I was a VP of marketing in tech in the US and management consultant. Since moving out of the country I've taught entrepreneurship in Mexico, trained people on business English and presentations in China and am now coaching execs 1:1 on a variety of issues in Taiwan. Most places have no interest in older workers. Taiwan and some of Latin American countries are big exceptions.
How are things in Romania for older workers interested in something like part-time training?
Thanks.
