An off-grid community full of freedom-minded families and individuals situated in Panama’s highlands just fifteen minutes from the beach? This isn’t just a dream; it’s the reality I unveiled in yesterday’s episode, in which my friend Patrick Hiebert joined me to put Veritas Panama on full display.

Ep 307307: Secure Your Family’s Future: Off-Grid Living In Panama’s Highlands – Part One
Freedom-minded folks like you and I can often feel isolated in a world where so many people are affected by socialist propaganda, the woke mind virus, or whatever you want to call it. Can you really count on your neighbours when they think your views are “nutty” or that your concerns about world events make you a “conspiracy theorist?” In today’s episode, I am excited to present you with a solution to this problem: Veritas Panama, an off-grid community living development in the highlands of Panama. Don’t worry - this isn’t some hippie-dippie place with small log cabins, no internet, and no access to modern amenities… Veritas Panama is a luxury development designed specifically for freedom-oriented individuals who want to guarantee a secure future for themselves and their families without foregoing the modern amenities of the developed world. Enjoy the presentation, and to secure your lot today, don't hesitate to email [email protected]. TODAY’S PRESENTATION ABOUT OFF-GRID LIVING IN PANAMA’S HIGHLANDS Listen in as Patrick Hiebert—one of my dearest friends and my partner in Veritas Panama—guides you through the project's background and how it all came together. If you think “off-grid” means living without modern amenities, think again! Learn how this solar-powered community maintains all the luxuries of first-world living. What about water? Discover how Veritas Panama is able to maintain its own self-sufficient water supply. Does “off-grid” mean losing life’s luxuries? Hear why Veritas Panama is fully equipped to handle a luxury lifestyle for its inhabitants, all while remaining off-grid and self-sufficient.

I founded this company to find real solutions to the problems faced by freedom-seekers around the world, and Veritas Panama is a direct response to the type of concerns I hear all the time. As much of the world’s political elite prepares to usher in a dystopian nightmare flush with draconian “solutions” like CBDCs, Digital IDs and “15-minute cities’, we are forming a strong, self-sufficient community in Panama that will be immune to many of these machinations.

Ep 306306: El Salvador: An Oasis of Decentralization – Dr. Jack Kruse
Is a decentralized revolution occurring in El Salvador? That's exactly what today's guest, Dr. Jack Kruse, who currently lives and practices medicine in El Salvador and has served as an advisor to Nayib Bukele, joins me to discuss. Dr. Jack Kruse, a neurosurgeon, had an awakening in 2007 when he suffered a torn meniscus in his knee at 6’2”, 357 lbs. This led to his further study of physics, light, magnetism, and electricity, ultimately concluding that modern medicine lacked a deep understanding of how humans function in relation to the natural world. He is the CEO of Kruse Longevity Center in the US and El Salvador, a health and wellness company dedicated to helping patients avoid the healthcare burdens they typically encounter as they age. He is also the author of “Epi-Paleo Rx: The Prescription for Disease Reversal and Optimal Health.” TODAY’S CONVERSATION WITH DR. JACK KRUSE Listen in to learn how Dr. Kruse had an epiphany regarding the state of the medical industry after his own traumatic medical incident. Hear the inside story about the TED talk Dr. Kruse was invited to give, which ended up getting banned. Discover how Dr. Kruse got the ear of El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele’s health ministry. Learn about the “oasis of decentralization” that Bukele plans to bring to El Salvador. Uncover a few of the 20 points Dr. Kruse laid out to Nayib Bukele that he needed to decentralize El Salvador. What is the dark secret that connects the CIA’s MK-Ultra program with the ban on incandescent lightbulbs? Dr. Jack has the inside track. Hear me on the edge of my seat as Jack guides me through the dark history connecting the mob, Las Vegas casinos and our modern-day screen addictions. Learn why COVID convinced everybody that Dr. Kruse wasn’t crazy, even though he was saying the same things he had been saying for fifteen years. Was moving to Panama inadvertently the healthiest decision I’ve made for my family? Dr. Kruse explains why its location provides a massive health upgrade to those moving climates further from the equator. WHERE TO FIND DR.

I often discussed how longevity has always been a hobby of mine, and Dr. Kruse certainly gave me a lot to think about. His insights on Nayib Bukele’s plan to decentralize El Salvador definitely piqued my interest. While I’m not ready to recommend clients choose El Salvador for their own Plan-B, it is certainly a country worth keeping an eye on in the coming years.Mentioned in this episode:No Plan-B Without the LanguageIf you’re planning to move overseas—or even just set up your offshore Plan-B—learning the local language isn’t optional.

As many of you know, we have been structuring some amazing real estate deals for short-term rentals lately, including beachfront properties in Brazil, apartments in Paraguay and condos in Panama.

Ep 303303: Javier Milei’s Presidency: The Real Impact On Freedom In Argentina – Skot Sheller
Javier Milei has been the talk of freedom-oriented expat circles since the libertarian firebrand was elected president of Argentina last year. Today, I am joined by Skot Sheller, who has been following Milei’s work for years and is himself pursuing Argentinian citizenship. Enjoy today’s discussion as Skot and I look at what Javier Milei has really accomplished so far, the opposition he faces from within Argentina, and the broader implications for freedom across Latin America and the world. TODAY’S CONVERSATION WITH SKOT SHELLER Discover how Skot first became fascinated not just with Argentina but with its history and politics. How did Argentina wind up with an anarcho-capitalist as President after decades of socialism? Skot lays out how Milei maneuvered his way into the Presidency. Learn how the black market completely managed the exchange of dollars and pesos in Argentina when the government proved unreliable. Uncover the reasons why, despite concerns about de-dollarization, the dollar is still seen as a safe haven compared to many Latin American currencies. Can Javier Milei really go after the Argentinian central bank? Skot breaks down the odds that he can deliver on his intentions to close the central bank entirely. Find out what departments Milei was able to cut immediately - you won’t believe some of the “Ministries” that the Argentine government was funding! Hear Skot break down the challenges Milei faces from within his own government - and why it’s not inconceivable that he could even be impeached. Would I recommend Argentina as a Plan-B location due to Milei’s Presidency? Hear what I’m telling my clients who have been asking me about it. Should people be concerned that Milei has spoken at the World Economic Forum? Skot and I discuss the circumstances and content of his WEF speeches. An Argentinian alliance with NATO? Skot and I look beyond the headlines to decipher what this really means.

While I have reservations about Argentina as a Plan-B recommendation, I can’t deny that the political situation is an interesting one, and it will certainly be a country to keep an eye on as the political situation unfolds.

Ep 302302: Social Media In The Age Of Technocracy – Wilfried Ligthart
How can you get your message out in the Age of Technocracy? Today’s guest, Wilfried Ligthart is a renowned Digital Blacksmith with a deep understanding of the evolving digital landscape. He specializes in driving external traffic, developing engaging online communities, and converting digital audiences into profitable customers. As we discuss in today’s episode, Wilfried has many insights into providing value in the digital age while focusing on protecting consumer data against Big Tech companies. TODAY’S CONVERSATION WITH WILFRIED LIGTHART Learn why Wilfried views digital marketing like trying to get past the bouncers at a nightclub. “The best things in life are free,” as they say; discover why this slogan applies to Internet traffic. How can we protect against the proliferation of fake, AI-generated content? Can we prevent the Deep Fakes from crowding out content with real, genuine value? Discover the frightening effects of “algorithmic decision-making” - are the decisions you make online really your own? Wilfried and I discuss how social engineering programs pushing “equality, diversity, inclusion, etc.” have the opposite effect and have increased division in our society. Hear Wilfried’s suggestions for people who want to be honest and true to themselves but at the same time don't want to be de-platformed for spreading their views. Uncover the insidious manner in which European countries incentivize the “voluntary” adoption of digital IDs. Could Joe Biden be a deep fake? We only half-jokingly discuss the possibility of the sitting U.S. President being AI-generated.

Wilfried is not only one of the world’s foremost experts in digital marketing but also, as you can tell from our conversation, certainly shares the values we embody here at Expat Money. Each of us has to find the right balance between utilizing Big Tech's tools for our personal and professional needs and avoiding the insidious traps set by technocrats. As discussed in the episode, this podcast remains very difficult to censor, so we can speak openly here (but for obvious reasons, you won’t find today’s conversation on YouTube).

Ep 300300: Living Internationally: Lessons From 300 Episodes
300 episodes—I truly can’t believe it! In many ways, it feels like yesterday when I recorded the first episode of the Expat Money Show. At the same time, my life and this company have changed drastically since that day. Today, I decided to invite my good friend and colleague Marc Clair—who has known me for nearly as long as I have been doing this show—to flip things around, act as my co-host this week, and interview me about how Expat Money and my own life have evolved over the 300 episodes of this podcast. Enjoy! TODAY’S 300TH EPISODE RETROSPECTIVE: Take a peek behind the scenes and see how Expat Money isn’t just a one-man band with me in an office doing everything - I’ve now got a staff of close to 30, including today’s co-host. Listen to fill in the gap from my often-discussed early childhood & leaving Canada as a teenager to 17 years later when I started Expat Money. Where did the idea for Expat Money come from? Discover why I decided to combine my hobbies and interests and launch the Expat Money Show. Uncover a simple truth about content creation: your content is going to suck flat-out when you start (and why you should embrace that!)

I always get asked this, and there is a story behind it… Find out which of my early podcast guests became a mentor and a crucial part of my own growth - a name many listeners will recognize! Learn why I am anti-Malthusian when it comes to children—I recommend having as many children as possible! Tune in to hear Marc and I discuss how many people worldwide are realizing they have been lied to and that our governmental and educational systems, by and large, do not have our best interests at heart. Is imitation really the best form of flattery? Find out about the string of Expat Money posers and straight-up plagiarizers that have sprung up as Exapt Money has gained greater notoriety.

I had barely been doing the show for more than a year or so when I first met Marc Clair. As one of the longest-running listeners and an accomplished podcaster in his own right, Marc was the perfect person to join me in reflecting on how things have changed in my life and this business over the course of these 300 episodes.

Ep 299299: Expat News: Panama’s New President, Millionaires Fleeing The US, and Malaysia’s Hilarious Visa Flop

Ep 298298: World War Watch: Middle East Conflicts and Tensions In The Taiwan Strait – Kyle Anzalone
From the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East to the tensions in the Taiwan Strait, it’s hard to keep up with all of the unfortunate military conflicts around the globe. With a wife, three children, and a seven-figure business to run, I find it difficult to keep up with the constantly evolving landscape of these global conflicts... Luckily, we have experts like today’s guest, Kyle Anzalone, who has dedicated himself to keeping up with these rapidly evolving situations. Kyle is the Opinion Editor for Antiwar.com, the News Editor at the Libertarian Institute, and co-host of the podcast Conflicts of Interest. He joins the Expat Money Show today to provide an update on the various conflicts currently affecting people around the globe. Enjoy! TODAY’S CONVERSATION WITH KYLE ANZALONE Tune in as Kyle lays out how a certain US Presidential candidate captured his interest in libertarian philosophy and the libertarian movement (while the antiwar part took a little longer…) Learn what eventually led Kyle to conclude that to be antiwar is an essential extension of the libertarian philosophy, causing him to become a passionate antiwar advocate. Hear Kyle and I discuss an interesting theory about the connection between U.S. foreign policy and domestic gun violence. How do psy ops influence our interactions with our fellow man? Whether it’s to militarize the public towards war or agitate their fear of a pandemic, it’s shocking to think about how much of our behaviour is due to outside influences. Listen to Kyle expertly break down the conflicts in the Middle East, centred around Israel and the Gaza Strip, and the various players involved as an extension of the conflicts, including Iran. Learn about the heartbreaking consequences of war to civilians in the region, from famine to the spread of disease. No matter what your politics, the disastrous effects of war cannot be overstated. Hear Kyle provide an update on the Ukraine war, which has dragged on for nearly two years. Is there any end in sight? Uncover the truth about Ukrainian President Zelensky - how did this two-bit comedian end up overseeing a massive war with Russia? Truly some of the best evidence for clown world yet! How will the U.S. election impact foreign policy and the domestic situation within the U.S.? Is there a situation where one alternative is better than the other? Kyle and I look at every angle. Lastly, Kyle provides an overview of the current tensions in the Taiwan Strait and how the China-Taiwan conflict affects the larger global picture.

They truly do stellar work there and deserve your support. I always have mixed feelings when I do these foreign policy episodes. For one, it can be downright depressing to think about all the needless death and destruction that goes on around the world, of all the innocent lives lost. On the other hand, understanding these global conflicts is of huge importance to the expat world. I have subscribers, Private Clients, and friends from literally every corner of the world, and I am always concerned about how the prospects of war might affect someone I care about. Be sure to check out Kyle’s podcast, Conflicts of Interest, and the work of everyone over at AntiWar.com, a truly fantastic organization.Mentioned in this episode:Gold in the Caribbean—No Bank Can Touch ItFiat is failing.

Ep 297297: A Chilean Birth Story – Why We Went South For Baby Number Three
Imagine being born and already having a leg up on your expat journey with a second passport. That’s exactly what our latest newborn son got to experience, even if he’s not quite old enough to be aware of it yet, as my wife and I did the birth tourism thing again and travelled to the country of Chile to give birth to our third child. In today’s episode, I will explain our decision to give birth in Chile, the benefits our son will have as a Chilean citizen, the birth experience in Chile itself, and so much more. TODAY’S EPISODE ON MY CHILEAN BIRTH TOURISM EXPERIENCE Listen to the tale of how I hustled to get from our company retreat in Panama to join my wife in Chile, where we awaited the birth of our third child. Find out how our new little one decided to come a few days early - and how impressed the hospital staff were at my wife’s delivery performance. She’s a real champion! Learn about the incredible medical care we received at the hospital in Chile, both with the birth and with a surprise incident involving my daughter later in our stay (she’s totally fine, by the way). Hear my impressions of Santiago, Chile—a city that became my home base for the three weeks or so after the birth of our son. Why did we choose Chile as opposed to Brazil again or another country for birth tourism this time? I break down the myriad of factors that contributed to our decision. Find out why a Chilean passport is actually the best passport in Latin America - a passport our son gets to start his life with from day one. Learn about the shockingly easy process of obtaining our son’s Chilean passport and birth certificate—it is not often that bureaucracy functions this seamlessly. Lastly, hear me discuss the tax situation for expats in Chile. While some tax advantages can be utilized early on in residency, this is by no means a low-tax country.

While the country has a lot of positives going for it, I would not recommend it as a Plan-B destination simply due to the less-than-ideal tax situation and the painstaking amount of time it takes to gain permanent residency and citizenship. Of course, having become a citizen at birth, my son won’t have to deal with that end of the process and will simply get to enjoy the benefits of a Chilean passport. Not a bad way to start off an expat journey if you ask me! I hope you enjoyed today’s episode, and I’ll see you all next Wednesday.Mentioned in this episode:No Plan-B Without the LanguageIf you’re planning to move overseas—or even just set up your offshore Plan-B—learning the local language isn’t optional.

Ep 295295: Offbeat Escapes: Exploring Contrarian Plan-B Locations – Brian Greco
Has your inner contrarian been nagging you to explore some offbeat Plan B expat locations? Today’s episode is just for you, as I welcome my good friend Brian Greco to the show. Brian is a world traveller, market researcher, and internationalization author who specializes in exploring lesser-known destinations and finding unique and compelling lifestyle opportunities across the Middle East, Eurasia, Eastern Europe, and more. TODAY’S CONVERSATION WITH BRIAN GRECO Learn how Brian first discovered that the expat life opens up countless opportunities - and how helping others on the journey became a personal passion of his. Uncover the concept Brian refers to as “medium-term travel” - having multiple bases from which to explore the world, and why this concept is so much more accessible to people than being a pure “digital nomad.” Hear Brian and I agree on the value of “slowing down” while travelling and staying in a certain place long enough to start learning the cultural intricacies. How long does it take to “get to know” a city? Brian’s expert insights will give you an idea of how long it takes for a city to become familiar. Discover the reasons Brian has settled on the Eurasia region—including Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa—as his primary focus. What’s the difference between “hard freedom” and “soft freedom?” Learn how Brian uses these concepts as filters to make judgements about how a particular region might meet one’s particular needs. Unlock Brian’s #1 “word to the wise” about how to stay sane and maintain a semblance of personal space while living in a bustling city that never sleeps. Learn about my superpower—the one key attribute that sets me apart from others when it comes to travelling and living in new places. Hear Brian lay out his view of the BRICS nation as not so much a military alliance or even an economic alliance as a greater move away from American/European hegemony around the world. Lastly, you’ll hear Brian break down which countries in Eurasia he plans to explore and which he is the most excited to return to.

Ep 294294: Mikkel Unfiltered: A Spicy Take On The Expat World
Ever wished I would loosen up a little and tell you what I really think? I say this somewhat in jest, of course - long-time listeners know I am not really one to hold back and always strive to deliver my perspective in the most straightforward way possible. But I think you’ll find in this episode that I let loose a bit more than normal as I joined my friend Adam Carswell on his live show “Ancap Radio” on Twitter (or X, which I’ll never get used to saying…). I’m not sure what was in the air—perhaps it was the show's “live radio” format of the show—but I was in a certain kind of mood and really just let loose. I had such a fun time chatting with Adam and going on a number of rants, so I just had to share this one with you today. There’s even a special appearance from our mutual friend Doug Casey, who, of course, Expat Money Show listeners are more than familiar with.

Ep 293293: What’s It Like To Work With Expat Money?
What’s it really like to work with me? That’s exactly what my colleague Marc Clair asked several of my clients and partners last month during my 41st birthday bash in Panama. This came at the tail end of our Panama Expat Exploration & Investment Tour, where I spent the week helping clients craft their own Plan B, whether it be residencies, citizenships, or simply investing internationally and protecting their wealth. People often ask why I have spent so much time and resources building this company when I could easily retire on the beach somewhere and spend the rest of my days staring off into the sunset. Aside from the fact that I am simply not built that way and would completely lose my mind, you’ll see from these testimonials today what it’s really all about. More people than ever before are awakening to the threats to their freedom and wealth, and I am truly blessed to have the opportunity to help others dramatically improve their situation. In today’s episode, you will get a glimpse into what it’s really like to work with me, craft your own Plan B, and protect yourself and your family from the machinations of corrupt politicians around the globe.

The truth is, I could retire today, but building this company that is actively helping people's lives is a giant puzzle that I’ve been determined to solve. I have built an absolutely incredible team here that makes so much of the content you see possible, and I do it all in to find more people like those you heard from in today’s show. This work never stops because there will never be a lack of people needing to shelter their wealth and protect their liberty from greedy, tyrannical politicians.

Ep 292292: From IRA to International: Investing In Foreign Real Estate With Self-Directed IRAs
Are you an American with an IRA (Individual Retirement Account) loaded with mutual funds, investing in the incredibly shaky foundation of the U.S. stock market? Today’s episode is just for you. This week, I am going to share a recent webinar I held where I invited our new partner, Matt Calhoun from Equity Trust, to discuss how to take control of your retirement with a self-directed IRA and share strategies for using one to invest in foreign real estate. This really is a can’t-miss for my American friends. TODAY’S PRESENTATION ON USING SELF-DIRECTED IRAS FOR INTERNATIONAL REAL ESTATE Tune in to meet Matt, who was referred to me by a trusted real estate partner as the “best in the business” when it comes to understanding American retirement accounts and foreign real estate. Discover how Matt first became interested in the niche area of self-directed IRAs after previously being involved with more conventional mutual funds. Learn how a self-directed IRA is unique from most in that you can direct and manage your own portfolio, including the type of assets you invest in. Uncover the wide variety of assets that you can own using self-directed IRAs, from precious metals to cryptocurrency to international real estate. Do you already have an account that can fund a self-directed IRA without your realizing it? Find out the most common ways to fund self-directed IRAs. Learn the differences between a “traditional IRA” and a “Roth” IRA - and the tax implications of each. This knowledge is absolutely crucial for understanding how to use these types of accounts to your benefit properly. Discover the very few types of assets that retirement accounts are prohibited from managing. Cross these off your list of investment ideas for IRAs. Hear about the most common mistakes people make using self-directed IRAs so that you don’t make them yourself! By the end of this episode, you will know everything you need to know about using your retirement account to purchase international real estate and protecting yourself from a coming stock market crash.

It’s crucial to act now to protect your wealth with overseas investments. While this episode won’t necessarily apply to my many listeners from Canada, Australia, Europe and all around the world, stay tuned because we are actively working to put together information about how to utilize retirement accounts from other countries as well. But I’ve had so many American friends and clients asking me about this that I just had to share it, as there are just too many great opportunities out there not to take advantage of if you have the means.Mentioned in this episode:No Plan-B Without the LanguageIf you’re planning to move overseas—or even just set up your offshore Plan-B—learning the local language isn’t optional.

Ep 289289: One Size Doesn't Fit All: Lessons From Homeschooling Five Children - Joshua Sheats
Today’s guest is Joshua Sheats. Joshua is an expert financial planner who teaches normal people how to seamlessly connect the science of financial planning with the joy of goal achievement. He is the host of the Radical Personal Finance podcast and, as you’ll hear in this episode, is also passionate about education and worldschooling with his five children. Since Joshua has discussed finance on over 1,000 episodes of his podcast, today, Joshua and I begin a three-part series in which we discuss everything but finance. In this conversation, we dive into Joshua’s approach to educating his five children while travelling the world. TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH JOSHUA SHEATS Learn about Joshua’s own educational upbringing, which included an eclectic mix of homeschooling, public school, a private Christian school and a traditional university. Hear about the “conspiracy theory” Joshua uncovered about the insidious nature of government school systems. Listen to Joshua describe the “knowledge gap” between the United States and China and what it means for their respective approaches to education. Discover why Joshua has come to believe that education is always religious in nature Hear Joshua explain how raising five children taught him there is no such thing as “one size fits all” parenting advice or educational method. Listen in as Joshua describes how relationships are built on “the currency of time” and why time spent with children early on is so critical to character development. Discover how Joshua learned how to create a controlled, positive environment around technology, which has encouraged his children to use it for positive, educational purposes.

Prior to that, we had a week-long investors tour in Panama, which began just as I was coming back from a trip to Turkey. As you can tell, it’s been a busy few weeks, but they’ve also been incredibly important.

Ep 286286: Untracked: The Role of Freedom Tech In Personal Security – Seth For Privacy
Seth for Privacy is a freedom maximalist and privacy advocate. He is the head of strategy and content for “Foundation Devices,” which builds Bitcoin-centric tools that empower you to reclaim your freedom. He also serves as the editor for Freedom Tech, a global hub championing Bitcoin builders, open-source developers, educators and privacy tech pioneers. Seth and I have a great discussion about the various freedom technologies available to increase your privacy. Enjoy! TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH SETH FOR PRIVACY Listen in to find out how Seth first took an interest in privacy issues while working for a cybersecurity firm when he realized the technology he was working on could be used to oppress humans. Hear how Seth started writing and podcasting about freedom issues in order to right some of the wrongs he had contributed to in his career. Learn why Seth believes that free and open-source privacy tools are vital in protecting one’s privacy from both government and corporate spying. Find out why Seth believes Bitcoin to be a core technology when it comes to privacy and security but why Bitcoin alone is not enough. Hear Seth and I discuss the importance of self-custody when it comes to Bitcoin to fully utilize it as “Freedom Money.” Listen to Seth unveil some of the easiest “levers” people can enact right away to increase their own privacy. Learn why Seth is opposed to “privacy maximalism.” Just as I say, there is no “Shangri-La” perfect country out there; the same holds true for privacy technology. Find out what Seth thinks of the popular privacy-centric messaging apps like Telegram, Signal and Simplex - are some better than others? Hear Seth explain the importance of an “always-on” VPN - a simple tool that, while sometimes creating a minor inconvenience on some websites, presents a huge privacy upgrade. Seth and I discuss our philosophy on how to decide when trade-offs in privacy are worth the gain in productivity or security.

Just as there is no “Shangri-La” perfect libertarian country out there, similarly, there is no perfect technology. Ultimately, the decisions you make in regard to how much privacy you are willing to give up in order to make your life or work more convenient. I have to make these decisions every day in my business, and the answers will look different for everyone. Hopefully, today’s discussion with Seth will continue to broaden your knowledge of the types of technologies available - and the rest is up to you!

Ep 285285: Building Wealth In Paraguay's 2024 Real Estate Boom - Part Two
This is the second part of the presentation I put together with my friend Fernando about the incredible, under-the-radar opportunities for real estate investment in Paraguay. I met Fernando when I travelled to Paraguay last year to explore the country, and we became not only fast friends but also business partners. I was thrilled to have him come on and share everything he has learned living and investing in Paraguay. We also took some questions from webinar attendees as we recorded it live. If you missed last week’s episode, be sure to go back and listen to that one first so you’re all caught up. Enjoy! TODAY’S PANEL ON BUILDING WEALTH IN PARAGUAY’S REAL ESTATE BOOM Learn how the last decade of infrastructure development translates to investors entering an area that is proven, tested, and primed for growth. Find out how the opportunities available in Paraguay represent an economic “perfect storm” with huge potential for both cash returns and capital appreciation. This is exactly what I look for in my investments. Hear the details of how Fernando’s team at Green Parana handles all of the little details so that the whole process is turnkey for my investors. Gain a detailed understanding of the strategies for renting these units - short or long-term, furnished or unfurnished - it’s all up to you! Get the inside scoop on the different types of apartments available and the discounts I was able to secure on these units. You will seriously be floored when you hear these prices! Find out why I am only looking at this opportunity as an investment, not as a launching pad for moving to Paraguay as an expat, which is really a separate conversation. You are not going to believe the “cherry on top,” as we refer to it, that will be included with these rentals for my investors - this is not something you normally get when you invest in a rental property! Finally, Fernando and I take questions from our live attendees and put to rest any remaining doubts you might have about Paraguay’s coming real estate boom. SECURE YOUR PARAGUAY PROPERTY TODAY!

I never recommend investments that I am not making myself, and I’ve got a number of these units in my portfolio already.

Ep 284284: Building Wealth In Paraguay’s 2024 Real Estate Boom - Part One
This is a replay of a webinar I hosted about the incredible investment opportunities in Paraguay I uncovered on my recent trip to that off-the-radar South American country. I invited my friend Fernando to explain why Paraguay’s real estate market is such an exciting prospect in 2024 and how you can capitalize on those opportunities now before the rest of the world catches up. Enjoy! TODAY’S PRESENTATION ON PARAGUAY’S REAL ESTATE BOOM Tune in to meet Fernando; he and I became fast friends when we met up in Paraguay and are now working together to educate expats about Paraguay’s burgeoning real estate market. Hear Fernando describe Paraguay as a conservative culture with liberal economic policies - the sort that many of my clients are looking for as expats. Fernando breaks down the recent change in Paraguay’s government and why the current president shows a lot of promise in regard to staying out of the economy. Learn why Paraguay has such a positive and mutually beneficial relationship with its largest neighbour, Brazil, another country I’m a huge fan of. Hear Fernando expertly break down the current housing “problem” in Paraguay - a problem that is music to the ears of investors looking to capitalize on a real estate market that’s ready to explode. Water, water, everywhere! If you love water, Paraguay is the place for you, as there are luscious rivers and waterfalls nearly everywhere you look. Marvel at Paraguay’s incredible energy sector - one that has seen no rise in energy prices in over eight years! Be sure to stay tuned in to the end, where Fernando will unveil the great discount I was able to negotiate for my subscribers on his units, along with all the details you need to know. This is a discount you won’t be able to get anywhere else! SECURE YOUR PARAGUAY PROPERTY TODAY!

Ep 283283: Panama Healthcare: Personal Case Study Report
It has not been a great couple of weeks here for myself and my family, but I want to share this story with you because I think there is an excellent opportunity to impart some lessons, not only about the excellent healthcare system here in Panama but also about living overseas overall. You’ll hear it in my voice that I’m still not entirely back to 100%, but I wanted to get this one out while everything was fresh on my mind. I hope you find value in my experience and can use it to better prepare for your own expat future.

Even as I write this, I am still not back to 100%, but I really wanted to share this with you to drive home how important it is to have access to affordable health care, no matter where you are in the world. Aside from that, my experience really demonstrates the value of a support network. I am so grateful to have been surrounded by family, hired help, and friends in the community who I could count on while I was out of commission.

Ep 282282: Are We Heading Towards World War III? – Ron Paul
I am thrilled to welcome back Dr. Ron Paul. Dr. Paul is a former U.S. Congressman, ran for President three times, and is an accomplished author and speaker. Dr. Paul always has valuable insights to share from his perspective, both as an Austrian economist and a former U.S. politician and with everything going on in the world, I wanted to invite him back to get his perspective on the trends going into 2024, including the march toward a possible World War 3. TODAY’S CONVERSATION WITH DR. RON PAUL Listen in to Dr. Paul’s perspective on why Austrian economics can predict trends but not specifics. This is an important distinction! Does Dr. Paul believe we will see a new world reserve currency? Dr. Paul breaks down why the end of the dollar is inevitable but not necessarily imminent Find out how Dr. Paul views the current escalations in tensions with China. Will this lead to a hot war in Asia? Could there be a reinstatement of the draft in the United States? Dr. Paul and I discuss the possibility that many U.S. clients of mine have expressed concerns about. Hear Dr. Paul’s opinion on where in the world would be a safe place to go if a World War III scenario were to play out. You won’t want to miss Ron’s epic rant about why the real isolationists are the governments and politicians causing wars and interfering in the economy. Dr. Paul really got fired up here! Finally, you’ll get Ron Paul’s predictions for 2024. How does he see the U.S. election playing out? What will unfold in regard to the march towards World War 3? And where does he find hope?

But what I also love about him is his ability to see beyond the theoretical and apply the ideas of Austrian economics and human action to the current real-world scenarios we see playing out. While we can’t predict the specifics, the trends are clear, and the doors to many countries will likely be closing, especially if a world war scenario plays out. This is why I always encourage everyone to act now when it comes to crafting your Plan B scenario. I hope you enjoyed hearing Dr. Paul’s perspective as much as I always do.

Ep 281281: Plan-B Insights: Evaluating Hungary’s Residency Potential – Laszlo Kiss
I invited Laszlo back to the show to discuss the various new immigration programs that have recently come out of his home country of Hungary. Who better than a Hungarian to help break it all down? Today’s guest is Laszlo Kiss, who is making his return to the Expat Money Show after first appearing way back on episode 99. He has more than 30 years of experience in the offshore space since his first citizenship sale in 1997. Laszlo is a personal friend of mine and has been a mentor to me for a number of years. TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH LASZLO KISS Listen to hear why, despite conducting his business in the expat world, Laszlo has decided to remain in his home country of Hungary. Find out how the interesting influx into Hungary of students from both Iran and Israel are getting along together. Hear why Hungary has had to become more strict in recent years when it comes to its immigration policies. Learn the details of the different investment options available to pursue Hungarian residency. Listen to Laszlo and I break down the important distinction between having a residency in Europe vs. citizenship in regards to which countries you can actually live in. Hear the fascinating story about the Hungarian man who acquired five different citizenships - without even leaving his village! What’s it like living next door to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine? Laszlo delivers his account from the ground. Listen to Laszlo’s first-hand breakdown of everything you need to know about life in Hungary, from safety to health care to cost of living and, of course, the food (always important to me!)

Hungary is a country many don’t often think about when it comes to an expat Plan B, but it certainly has a number of interesting advantages worth exploring. As always, I try to provide as complete a picture as possible when breaking down a country, and there is quite literally no better expert in the world when it comes to gaining residency and citizenship in Hungary than Laszlo Kiss.

Ciudad Morazán and the prospects of future cities like it present a huge potential opportunity for expats to begin a new life under a totally different model of private governance. This is a huge reason why I am a Free Cities ambassador along with Alex. I hope you enjoyed this conversation as much as I did.

Ep 275275: Gold, Inflation and the Banking Crisis: The Outlook for 2024 – Peter Schiff
Peter Schiff is the CEO and chief global strategist of Euro Pacific Capital Inc. This is a conversation that I was originally a part of this year’s Expat Money Summit, and I wanted to share it with you today to give you a taste of the sort of exclusive content I bring to the Summit every year. Peter Schiff is someone who I have followed for years, and I think he brought tremendous value to the Summit with this conversation. Enjoy! TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH PETER SCHIFF Listen to Peter’s take on the most recent trends in the price of gold and how it’s affected by inflation and government deficit spending. Hear Peter’s early 2024 election predictions and what it will mean for the U.S. and global economy. Find out why Peter fears what I have been saying all along - that when the crisis hits, the government will make it very difficult for Americans to escape. This is why I always emphasize acting now! Listen to Peter detail why failing prices, aka deflation, can lead to companies making more money, contrary to the popular opinion of many ‘mainstream’ economists. If you think the headlines showing 20% inflation looks bad, wait until you hear Peter’s breakdown of what sort of inflation we’ve really experienced in the last few years. Find out why Peter believes the banks are currently in worse shape than they were during the 2008 crisis. Will the Federal Reserve continue to attempt to fight inflation or just let the banks fail? Hear Peter break down this no-win situation. Hear Peter’s thoughts on why he didn’t get any mention in the film The Big Short for predicting the 2008 crisis. I had never heard him talk about this before! Find out Peter's thoughts on some important topics like CBDCs, and a potential gold-backed BRICS currency. Lastly, you won't want to miss Peter's predictions on what's to come in 2024 - and how you can best prepare.

I have been following his work for years, and I’m so glad I was able to share this important discussion with everyone who attended the Summit and now with you all here today if you missed it then. Peter’s message echoes what I have been saying for years - the time to act to protect your wealth from the financial crisis that is unfolding is yesterday. Whether it’s getting your money into offshore investments or starting the process of acquiring a second passport, it’s essential to stop waiting around and take action. Those who do so will certainly be in a better position in the years ahead than those who sit around doom-scrolling all day.

Ep 273273: Paraguay Tour Breakdown
Paraguay is a new country for me and is the latest stop on my quest to try to tick off all of the countries in Central and South America. I saw all of Central America over 20 years ago, but there are still some South American countries that are on my bucket list. Today, you’ll not only learn about my time in Paraguay and my overall perspective on the country but also get a sense of the kind of things I look for when I am touring a new country for the first time, always with my listeners and clients in mind. TODAY'S EPISODE ABOUT PARAGUAY Learn about my “hub and spoke” model for touring a country for the first time. Hear about a little mishap with our room upon arriving in Villa Rica and how I turned that into an excuse to have an incredible meal. Listen to me describe our tour of a timber plantation, which included seeing a Guinness World Record-holding marvel!

Hear another of my tales of travel mishaps - this one involving my attempts to pay a Paraguayan cabbie. Learn how Paraguay has leveraged its hydroelectric power, not just to provide electricity for its own people but also by selling power to neighbouring Brazil. Brilliant! I explain how the cheap electricity available in Paraguay has led to a boom in Bitcoin mining in the country - a unique potential area of investment to keep an eye on. Listen to me break down several of the exciting real estate investment opportunities I got to check out there. While I can’t advise anyone to act just yet, there are definitely some projects to keep an eye on.

Ep 271271: My Adventures Going To And From The Liberty In Our Lifetime Conference
In today’s episode, I am going to detail the recent trip that I made to Prague via Costa Rica, via Germany, and then on the way back through Turkey, Cuba, and then back to Panama. It was quite an adventure. And hopefully, there will be some suitable lessons in this one for you on what to do and what not to do when travelling abroad. Enjoy! TODAY'S EPISODE ON MY ADVENTURES TO AND FROM THE LIBERTY IN OUR LIFETIME CONFERENCE Listen to me let off some steam about my air travel woes, starting with the longest walk in airport history in Germany! Hear why some fellow conference attendees were a little weirded about by our supposedly “masonic” hotel. I discuss how I got to meet in person to plan the future of international cities - as discussed in last week’s episode - in my new advisory role on the board of Tipolis. Long-time listeners will get a real trip down memory lane with all the past podcast guests I got to meet while in Prague. It was really an all-star Expat Money lineup! Hear about the presentations I gave, including the speech I gave on the often-overlooked emotional aspect of moving abroad. If you thought my travel woes ended with my transfer through Germany, you’ll be blown away when you hear about the real drama that began as I departed via Turkey. Listen to how I wrapped up a loose end on my quest for a Turkish passport in what I hope will finally seal the deal. Be sure to check out my episode on Turkey for the backstory! Did you really think the travel woes ended there? You will not believe what I dealt with on the last leg of my journey through Cuba. Seriously, this was just unreal! RELATED EPISODES 270: The Future Of International Cities 263; How To Get.A Turkish Passport 192: Building Free Private Cities Around The World - Peter Young CONCLUSION I hope you enjoyed my little recap of my travels to and from Prague for this amazing Liberty in Our Lifetime conference. I never try to glorify things when I relay my experiences, and as you can tell, international travel isn’t always a walk in the park. This trip certainly had its low points, but in the end, it’s all a part of the adventure, and I’m certain you can take a few tips from my experiences. See you all next week!Mentioned in this episode:Gold in the Caribbean—No Bank Can Touch ItFiat is failing. Banks are cracking. And smart investors are moving their gold offshore—outside the system.

Ep 270270: The Future Of International Cities - Titus Gebel
Today’s guest is Titus Gebel, a German entrepreneur with a Ph.D. in International law. He is the inventor of the “Free Cities” concept and the founder of the Free Cities Foundation. He is also the CEO of Tipolis, where he is focused on creating and developing autonomous cities by partnering commercially with governments and special economic zones around the world. I’ve had the pleasure of getting to know Titus over the years as I have served as both an Ambassador for the Free Cities Foundation and a member of the Advisory Council for Tipolis, and I’m excited to share today’s conversation in which we discuss the future of what is now being rebranded as “International Cities.” TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH TITUS GEBEL Listen to Titus detail how his ideas about free cities spawned from his frustration with politics. Hear about Titus’s unique background in politics, law and entrepreneurship that made him the ideal person to craft the vision of the free cities concept. Learn about the many success stories that have emerged from the free cities model, including the widespread increase of special economic zones (SEZ’s). Titus and I discuss the concept of “government as a service” and how the services we’re used to getting from coercive governments can be delivered through the free cities model. Listen to Titus explain the new branding of “international cities” to counter the allergy governments have to the words “free” and “private.” Titus and I roll our eyes together at the concept of the “social contract,” - the terms of which seem to change based on the whims of whoever is enforcing it. Hear Titus lay out the reasons why contractual governments are much better protectors of rights than the current coercive model. Titus hints at the regions where we may see some of these International Cities popping up in the coming years.

As you can tell from the episode, Titus and I are both incredibly optimistic about the future of what is now being dubbed “International Cities.” Even as the clouds of world war and economic calamity prospects loom, I always do my best to focus on the actions we can take towards achieving greater liberty, and the International Cities concept is one of the most exciting prospects ahead.

Ep 269269: There’s Going To Be A Financial Reckoning – Addison Wiggin
Today’s guest is Addison Wiggin, an American writer, publisher, and filmmaker. He currently hosts The Wiggin Sessions, a YouTube show covering the financial markets, the economy and politics. He writes the financial daily, The Daily Missive, and is the host and editor of The Essential Investor, a fundamental resource for individuals managing their money. Addison joins me today to discuss his perspective on the inevitable financial reckoning that he has been predicting for years. TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH ADDISON WIGGIN Hear Addison detail how his background in philosophy led him on an unexpected path that found him publishing books and a newsletter on finance. Listen to Addison explain how the Federal Reserve’s money supply manipulations have led to recent bubbles in cryptocurrency, marijuana and AI-related equities. Learn how Addison was “early, but not wrong,” about the current economic situation and why timing is the most challenging part of financial forecasting. Get Addison’s take on why we haven’t yet seen the great big global economic meltdown. Just what is holding things back from a collapse? Addison and I discuss how world wars have historically been tied to massive financial crises and the parallels with today's global predicament. Does the Federal Reserve still have the confiscated gold from the 1930’s? Addison and I ponder this question. Hear Addison lay out the trends in place for decades that have enabled the unprecedented totalitarian responses by governments in the last few years. Lastly, Addison gives his thoughts on CBDCs and whether central banks can successfully implement them in the coming years.

Ep 268268: Azerbaijan Trip Report
Today I bring you the final part of my four-part series discussing my experience travelling in each of the four countries I visited on my recent trip. In previous episodes, I discussed Turkey, Georgia and Armenia. Be sure to check those out if you missed them. This week, I’ll talk a bit about my time spent on the last leg of my trip in Azerbaijan. How did it compare to my experiences in Georgia, Turkey and Armenia? Which, in the end, has the most potential for expats? TODAY'S AZERBAIJAN TRIP REPORT Tune in to hear how our initial impression of Azerbaijan of feeling like we were back in our old home of the UAE was quickly turned on its head once we arrived in Baku. Listen to me break down how Azerbaijan is like a weird mix of several countries I’ve been to before, with minimal feeling of a culture of its’ own. You’ll be shocked to hear how much of life in Azerbaijan is controlled by the government, and you can imagine how I felt about that. I describe the F1 race track that runs through the city streets of Baku, which has quite literally shaped the city. Listen to my absolute indignation at our visit to what I called the “Museum of Propaganda” in Baku. Hear me describe the stark contrast between the feeling in the countryside vs the big city once we got out of Baku. I explain how - much like in Armenia - the people of this country are deeply scarred by the conflicts with its neighbour. Listen to the story of our simply unbelievable cab driver, quite possibly the most incredible driver I’ve ever had. I can’t stop thinking about this! Hear me break down Armenia’s truly horrendous response during the COVID hysteria. This is about as anti-liberty as it gets. Tune in for my final assessment of Azerbaijan and the three other nations I visited on this trip. Which has the best overall potential for expats?

RELATED EPISODES 267: Armenia Trip Report 266: Is Georgia A Good Plan B Location For Expats? 263: How To Get.A Turkish Passport CONCLUSION That’s it for my report on Azerbaijan, and that wraps my four-part series breaking down my trip, which included Turkey, Georgia and Armenia. Azerbaijan is a country that doesn’t get a ton of attention from expats - and for understandable reasons. But I always make a point to do my due diligence on the ground so I can speak real-world experience when informing my audience and client about their options for seeking more freedom in the world. Remember, there’s no “Shangri-La,” perfect libertarian country out there. It’s about finding the right balance that’s best for your own personal situation, and it’s my sincere hope that in-depth reports like the ones you’ve heard over the last month provide insights that you’ll never get from a tourist guidebook or a government website.

Ep 267267: Armenia Trip Report
Today I am bringing you part three of my series, breaking down my experience in each of the four countries I visited on my recent trip. I already discussed Turkey and Georgia in recent episodes - be sure to go back and check those reports out as well. This week, I’ll discuss my time spent in the interesting country of Armenia. Does this country have the potential for expats? You’ll get all my thoughts in today’s episode. TODAY'S ARMENIA TRIP REPORT Tune in to hear how my initial first impression after taking the train into Armenia was quickly flipped around after I ventured downtown Yerevan. Hear about the HUGE difference I noticed right away that put Armenia a notch above Georgia. As with the Georgia episode, you’ll once again have to hear me rave about the incredible food. Which country’s food did I rank higher in the end? Learn how I found Armenia to be more business-oriented and entrepreneurial than neighbouring Azerbaijan - which I’ll elaborate on in next week’s episode. Listen for an inside look at my visit to a building site. How did the conditions hold up compared to the first world? I give my take from the ground on how the geopolitics involving the war in Ukraine have affected the situation in Armenia. Find out how friendly I found the people in Armenia to be towards visitors compared with Georgia. Learn how the Armenian genocide and the on-again, off-again war with Azerbaijan affect the country's people to this day. Hear my final verdict on all aspects of Armenia for expats, from banking to the cost of living to the political situation.

It’s a lovely place and one certainly worth visiting at a minimum. But it does bring a lot of baggage as far as a Plan-B location for expats goes, many of which concern the geopolitical situation and the constant problem with its’ neighbour, Azerbaijan.

Ep 266266: Is Georgia A Good Plan B Location For Expats?
Today, I will deliver an in-depth report on my time spent in Georgia. This is part two of my series breaking down my experience in each of the four countries I visited on my recent trip. I started in episode 263 with my report on Turkey, and I will soon deliver two more reports on my trips to Armenia and Azerbaijan. TODAY'S GEORGIA TRIP REPORT Listen in for the full story about our experience with a baseball bat-wielding cab driver (no, really!) Hear my take on where Georgia ranks in terms of “friendliness” out of the four nations I visited on my trip. You’ll salivate as I describe the mind-blowing food we ate in Georgia - it was nothing like I expected! Tune in to hear my biggest disappointment about dining in Georgia. This one was a big letdown. Learn about how the influx of Russians and Ukrainians into Georgia has affected the economic situation on the ground. Listen in to hear my dismay at the remarks a Georgian banker made about CBDCs - this made my blood boil!

As I’ve said many times, there is no “Shangri La” perfectly free country that exists, and that’s why I always set my feet on the ground in a country and go through residency processes myself so that I can relay the reality to my clients, and I take the same approach with this podcast when discussing these countries. As with any other country, Georgia has a mix of good and bad qualities, and only you can be the final judge on which countries strike the right chord with you.

Ep 264264: How To Get A Backup Citizenship Or Residency
Since it's Summit week, and you really should be checking out the over 40 free presentations going on there, I am going to republish an episode today that I did earlier this year about how to go about getting a backup citizenship or residency. But first, really, stop what you're doing and grab your spot over at the Expat Money Summit and catch these incredible presentations live. You can come back to this later! HOW TO GET A BACKUP CITIZENSHIP OR RESIDENCY Confused about the lexicon or language when it comes to immigration? Many people are. This is the episode that you won’t want to miss. I start with the most basic language, so you’ll fully comprehend and understand it. I discuss the difference between temporary and permanent residencies and why they are so important to understand. The next step up is citizenship. What does this mean? What must you do or complete to become a citizen in a new country? Are you thinking about starting a family or having additional children? Listen as I talk about birth tourism and what it can mean for you and your family. One of my main focuses is on Residency by Investment. What does that look like, and how can you obtain one? What is a Golden Visa? You may have heard this phrase. The next piece of information I cover is Citizenship by Investment. The countries that offer it, and why I believe it is so important. I run through the countries that currently have citizenship by investment and the costs involved. CONCLUSION I hope today's episode was beneficial to you and works as a real complement to the three-hour workshop I did on Saturday. I also want to say that if you're listening to today's episode and you still haven't hopped over to the Summit, it's the perfect next step on your expat journey. You can still catch the remaining presentations for free or upgrade to a VIP ticket for lifetime access. Mentioned in this episode:Join Me In Panama For Our Next TourI have great news. After many meetings and explanations, the Panamanian government has agreed to keep the Investors Visa at a $300k Real Estate investment instead of nearly doubling the amount required, as they said they would.

Ep 263263: How You Can Get A Turkish Passport
Today, I bring to you a personal report of a portion of my month-long trip that I just returned from. As we focus on my time in Turkey, I will include an update on the citizenship by investment I am working on from there. While it was an incredible trip, it wasn’t all roses, as we had some challenges to face along the way. I don’t hold back - you’ll get the good, the bad and the ugly of my experience in Turkey, one of my favourite countries. Enjoy! TODAY’S EPISODE ABOUT MY TURKEY TRIP Find out what it was like travelling with my entire family - my wife, the kids, my mom, and even the nanny - through four different countries. Learn about some of the difficulties I encountered while pursuing my citizenship by investment program for Turkey. Hear about all the incredible (and not-so-incredible) properties that I saw and the endless hurdles we faced along the way while shopping for real estate. Find out how we ran into a major complication with our CBI due to our marriage taking place outside of both of our native countries. Listen in to hear about our run-in with a pickpocketer that snatched my mother’s purse - a stark reminder to never let your guard down while travelling. Learn all about my experience at the awe-inspiring Galata Towers - this is one place you absolutely cannot miss when in Istanbul. Come to understand why - despite some of its issues - Istanbul remains one of my favourite cities in the world. RELATED EPISODES 255: CBI Sh!tstorm News 206: From Canada to Turkey (Via Texas) An Expat Story - Mike & Ivy 180: Residency and Citizenship Updates - Mikkel Thorup CONCLUSION Well, that’s it for my trip to Turkey. While I went into this episode with the plan to discuss my entire trip, the conversation about Turkey and the efforts I am making to achieve my citizenship by investment was plenty enough to fill its own episode. In a perfect world, I’d only have positive things to report about the process, but one of the reasons I do these programs is to find the roadblocks so that my clients don’t have to. And rest assured, when it’s all said and done, I will be the owner of a Turkish passport. If you enjoyed this behind-the-scenes glimpse into my experience in Turkey, leave a comment and let me know. I may very well follow this up with reports on my experiences in Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan, so stay tuned!Mentioned in this episode:No Plan-B Without the LanguageIf you’re planning to move overseas—or even just set up your offshore Plan-B—learning the local language isn’t optional.

Ep 262262: Three Things I Had To Overcome To Find Success
Across several episodes, I have been trying to organize my thoughts regarding what I've been able to do over the last couple of decades to set myself up for success. I have spent a lot of time trying to figure these things out, and a number of major struggles were holding me back along the way. Tune in to hear me break down how I overcame three major obstacles to pave the way for success in my personal and professional lives. RELATED EPISODES 178: Ninety-Four Things I Do To Set Myself Up For Success 224: How I Plan Out My Life And Guarantee Success – Part 1 225: How I Plan Out My Life And Guarantee Success – Part 2 CONCLUSION There you have it, the 3 massive things I had to overcome in my life before I really was able to become successful. As you can tell from this episode, nothing has come easy for me in life, but I don’t talk about how I’ve overcome these struggles in order to brag. Rather, I hope that you’ll be able to learn from my experiences and perhaps skip a few of the mistakes I made along the way in identifying exactly what was holding me back.

Ep 260260: Zen and the Art of Individual Sovereignty - Laurence Easeman
Today’s guest is Laurence Easeman, a filmmaker and host of the “Eyes Wide Open” podcast. His mission is to empower others to know their rights, break free from the system, and recognize the importance of personal autonomy and agency. He spends his time between the UK and Portugal, where he is pursuing residency. TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH LAURENCE EASEMAN Listen as Laurence recounts his fateful trip up a mountain that changed his life and led to him pivoting away from filmmaking into becoming a full-time advocate for personal sovereignty. Hear how the onset of the COVID regime shut down Laurence’s business in the UK and triggered him back into full-time activism and his current efforts on the “Eyes Wide Open” podcast. We discuss the concept of activism - how it can make you a “moving target” like Laurence and why I do not consider myself an activist. Find out why Laurence has embarked on his own expat journey and is currently pursuing residency in Portugal. Listen in to hear how Portugal got put on the “red list” by the UK, banning its citizens from travelling there for not initially fully going along with the COVID narrative. Hear Laurence break down how the powers that be utilize their illusion of authority to manufacture consent for tyrannical measures. Laurence and I talk about the dark side of technology and why we both find value in places that are somewhat “backward in time” with their technological systems. We discuss the absolute flood of Canadians fleeing during the last few years of the Trudeau regime, reflected in the fact that Canadians are now taking up the majority of my private clients. Lastly, Laurence and I share in our passion for using homeschooling as a strategy to shield our children from psyops while depriving the state of its essential workers.

It’s no wonder he is climbing so quickly in the podcast world, as his insights and understanding of the systems of control in place - and, more importantly, how to deal with them - are second to none.

Ep 258258: How To Underthrow The Government - Max Borders
Today’s guest is Max Borders, author of the book Underthrow: How Jefferson's Dangerous Idea Will Spark a New Revolution. Max has been an outspoken supporter of decentralized systems and individual freedom and has authored four books deeply exploring humanity's movement toward societies of decentralized governance. Today, Max joins the show to explain his radical idea to “underthrow” the government through what he calls “subversive innovation.” TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH MAX BORDERS Listen to Max describe how he followed his yearning to use creativity and entrepreneurship to affect societal change to write about the topic of decentralization. Hear Max explain how he hopes to inspire people to underthrow the government, using what he refers to as “subversive innovation” Max and I discuss how many libertarians often find themselves stuck thinking about policy while neglecting to make the needed changes in their own lives Tune in to hear Max’s breakdown of the 3 options for affecting change in society and which he feels is superior Listen to Max describe how governments have evolved from sovereign entities into an “extended politburo” run by government and corporate interests. Learn about Max’s “Constitution of Consent” contest and how he aims for it to inspire real-life experiments in decentralized self-governance. Hear Max lay out his ideas of just how we can navigate this era of unreason and untruth by implementing the ideas he discusses.

As I often discuss, far too many great, freedom-loving libertarians that I run into wind up stuck in the realms of philosophy and policy. This program and my work as an expat consultant are all about taking actionable steps to achieve more liberty for yourself and your family, and I’m glad that Max’s ideas fall right in line with that. I hope all enjoyed this conversation as much as I did!Mentioned in this episode:Gold in the Caribbean—No Bank Can Touch ItFiat is failing. Banks are cracking.
