Zug (again) - Questions

[RossMac]

Have the opportunity to up sticks from the UK and move family to Switzerland (Zug) for a job and would like to hear from others who have done the same recently.

I have spoken with their HR consultant about general relocation things but would like an independent opinion/comment on generalaties e.g. general cost of living (fuel, food, lap dancers and all other essentials), local and federal taxation, healthcare (private coverage needed?), schooling (what are international schools like?), cost of rental and where to rent (would prefer house not apartment), tax benefits of buying (?), any bizarre laws on noise limits for a Chimaera with baffles removed .

The schooling is quite important. Kids are 7, 4 and 2. Would prefer to avoid an international school but the elder would struggle until German up to scratch nein?

cheers

thanks everyone. Some good links to occupy myself with this weekend

Thanks for the great response Greg (and others above) - really appreciate it. I owe you all a beer when I'm there.

All this and a few purchases on Amazon should keep me occupied.

Time to put the exhaust baffles back in the TVR

I'm staying in Riedmatt for a few months until sorted out with the family. Hopefully the TVR will be over in a few weeks. Anyone go to the International Mens club on Thursdays?
