    If push comes to shove your passport is only the first step. You would need to actually find a country to take you, and countries don’t hand out citizenship like candy unless you’re rich. Without a second citizenship, you would be very restricted in where you can work.

    Your best bet is if your parents or grandparents came from abroad, some countries have blanket policies to have 1st or 2nd generations come back to their ancestral homeland. It very much varies by country, you would have to do your own research. It might be worth doing as a last resort.

      I may look into the other genealogical direction. My daughter has skills that are globally in demand and she’s probably more upset about America than I ever could be. Maybe there’s a bring your parent along program out there somewhere.

      I’m fifteen years out from viable retirement. If I can hold on that long, there are several places I could go on my own accord.
