When working through an expat process (residency, leasing to citizenship), is it worth pivoting if the situation changes? Or do you stick with the original plan to the end… change can’t be predicted.

Wife and I have recently gone all in on Portugal. But changes to Portuguese laws have been proposed. And it might affect us if ratified into law.

Do you stick to the plan? Or do you pivot to the next best option? It’s sort of a “sunk cost” issue. There’s emotions vs reality. But the concern is reality can change (Portuguese law proposals might result in change…. If we pivot to France, or Spain, or another country, whose to say those laws ALSO won’t change?)
