I thought this WSJ article was interesting for any who plan to live overseas as US citizens:
Fatca Relief Coming for U.S. Expats Via ‘Same Country Exception’? – Opinion - Expat - WSJ
In short it discusses efforts to pass a "same country exception" to FATCA: you would not have to comply with FATCA rules if you are a resident of the other country. The idea being that FATCA would target overseas accounts (to stop US citizens hidng money offshore) but not hinder those who wish to base themselves long-term overseas in a single country.
Sounds like a good fix. Let's hope it goes forward!
