I will move out of Germany at the end of year. The country has insanely high taxes for singles. Also a court may ask you to pay life long support, paying 3/7 of the difference of your incomes, to your ex wife even if you don't have any children. Bureaucracy is one of the highest in the entire world and every process takes a lot of time. Many authorities will not even accept anything but paper letters for communication. May be some day I will write about all the drawbacks of living in Germany, but that book will be bigger than the entire Encyclopaedia Britannica.
