speaking as someone married to an American who migrated to my country.. the cost of renouncing your citizenship is far cheaper than the backward arse tax system that applies to US citizens regardless where they live, and the need to pay someone to do your taxes for you even if you owe nothing.
Once you get citizenship elsewhere (if you can) I'd recommend renounce US on sheer economic grounds alone
