Hi,

Re: Credit Score

If you bank with HSBC UK, you can request for credit history transfer when you open an account with HSBC US. Not too sure how this will help boost your US' credit score. I haven't tried this myself,...

Re: Switching to right hand drive

Really? For some reason I thought the US drivers test had to be done with a manual car. Thanks for correcting me! The driving test doesn't sound so bad now.

Re: Switching to right hand drive

Yeah, I'll definitely get an automatic. Too bad they don't have automatic only drivers license, unlike in Aus.

Switching to right hand drive

I rarely drive in the UK, and I'm bad with sticks, but I think this would be a necessity when I move to US. I'm kinda freaked out by the thought of having to switch from left hand drive to right hand...

Re: H1B Visa - Wanting to move to USA and work in the IT industry

How did this influx happen given the limited work visas?

Why are interest saving rates so low in US?

Why are interest saving rates so so low in the US, compared to UK? E.g. Citibank offering 0.4% annual saving rate? Where do they save their money?? Doesn't this turn people off from moving to the US?
