Thinking about leaving the UK for a better tax deal or a simpler life? We unpack the real calculations behind that decision—from inheritance tax worries and wage inflation to VAT shocks and the tightening margins that push many principals to the brink. Dan Klein, owner of Hive Accountancy in Cornwall, joins us to share what he’s seeing across hundreds of dental clients: frustration is real, but so are the misconceptions about relocation and tax.

We dive into why the “move and save” story is often oversold. There’s no overnight fix; meaningful tax advantages tend to require multi‑year planning, residency commitment, and a clear picture of where you’ll live, when you’ll sell, and how you’ll invest. We explore why some dentists commute from Dubai, where that model makes sense, and where it falls apart. If you’re eyeing a big exit, timing and structure matter more than hearsay—and the best results come when your personal life actually fits the place you plan to call home.

Not everyone needs to move. We talk candidly about dentistry’s “middle age,” where easy growth has faded and operating discipline wins. For some, the smarter play is to stay, run a tight practice, or even step back to a high‑performing associate role while maximising pensions, ISAs, and diversified investing. We compare active vs passive approaches, how to avoid silver‑bullet thinking, and the mindset required to hold through market dips without panicking. Whether you stay or go, the path to a calmer, wealthier future comes from clarity, patience, and a plan you’ll actually follow.
