Some countries are peaking⊠others are just getting started. In todayâs episode, youâll hear a conversation that I recorded during one of my recent Paraguay Exploration & Investment Tours, where I sat down with Gerold Pankl to talk about what heâs seeing after nearly two decades of living, investing, and building in Paraguay as a foreigner. Gerold first arrived in Paraguay through agricultural investment work almost 20 years ago and never left. Together, Gerold and I dig into why Paraguay has become one of the most strategic Plan-B jurisdictions in the world, how the new infrastructure (bridges, highways, logistics routes, airports, and potential railway) is reshaping opportunity corridors and how people just like you are securing massive upside here by getting in on the growth early. IN TODAYâS EPISODE:* We get Geroldâs 20-year perspective on how Paraguay has matured into what it is today * Hear an expert perspective on why Paraguayâs fundamentals are unusually strong for a âdevelopingâ country * We break down the investment logic behind his current region of focus inside Paraguay, Nueva AsunciĂłn * Learn why Paraguay appeals to expats: straightforward residency, low taxes, and minimal carrying costs that make investing easier

In today's episode, we pick up where we left off with my friend and business partner, Fernando de Cevallos, for a live Q&A session about the transformation happening inside Paraguayâs most important region. This discussion followed the special live presentation we hosted for hundreds of members of the Expat Money Community. We cover everything from expected net returns and capital appreciation expectations to the development timeline⊠and, of course, we discuss the ownership benefits that extend beyond the financial side of things. Enjoy today's episode! IN TODAYâS EPISODE* Why the âMadridâ comparison matters: itâs not about bragging rights, itâs about the finishing that pulls high-quality tenants and strengthens demand * The two exit paths almost every investor ignores (and why the wrong one can trap your capital longer than you planned) * How this region of Paraguay fits into a larger economic story, why itâs a magnet for jobs, services, and growing businesses * The difference between just buying âa unitâ and buying into a micro-market, and why a micro-market is where the REAL money is made⊠* How the benefits thatdonâtshow up on a spreadsheet are the ones that actually drive the long-term value we all seek

In todayâs episode, Iâm joined by Fernando de Cevallos, my friend and business partner, and one of the key people behind a decade-plus development surge in one of the countryâs most strategic regions. Heâs been in the middle of the transformation while everyone else was busy âdiscoveringâ it after the fact⊠and now heâs rolling out a project in Paraguay that doesnât look anything like whatâd youâd expect in the âdeveloping worldâ. If you didnât know where it was, youâd swear you were looking at something built for downtown Madrid, not Paraguay. We dig into the economic thesis: why this location, why this timing, and why this model⊠and we unpack the parallels between overlooked markets that got written off⊠right up until they turned into serious wealth engines and global-tier cities. IN TODAYâS EPISODE* The unsexy fundamentals behind Paraguayâs growth (the kind that actually holds), and what that means if youâre building a Plan-B for your family and looking for asymmetric upside as an investor. * Why the capital isnât being put âeverywhereâ itâs being funnelled into one tiny cluster, and how to spot the exact zones where new roads, utilities, and services force prices and rents upwards. * The demand engine most people miss: trade tailwinds + sustained population growth, bringing in a steady stream of buyers, renters, and businesses that keep this corner of the market liquid. * How the smart money is positioning before the headlines, what theyâre buying, how they structure deals, and how you can get in without needing a million dollars in spare cash to do so. * If you want a clear, boots-on-the-ground playbook for where Paraguay is actually moving, and how to position your family and capital BEFORE the crowds show up, then this conversation gives you the map, the logic, and the real world-signals to follow.

The annual gathering of global elites at the World Economic Forum in Davos is usually an easy skip. It typically features a parade of bureaucrats and technocrats, both elected and unelected, proudly touting their plans for âmanaging the world.â But this year, there were a couple of particularly interesting speeches from two world leaders who stand in stark opposition to one another. In todayâs episode, my co-host Marc Clair and I break down the Davos speeches from U.S. President Donald Trump and Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, and why Carneyâs in particular was quite surprising to hear. IN TODAYâS EPISODE* Listen in as Marc and I break down Mark Carneyâs admission that the so-called ârules-based orderâ has always been a mirage * Tune in to hear how Canadaâs PM stood on a global stage in Davos and echoed ideas weâve been hammering for years: self-sufficiency, independence, and the end of blind trust in global systems * Marc and I look at Trumpâs speech and how his chaos-driven, âArt of the Dealâ seemingly achieved his desired result regarding Greenland * Learn what the âDonroe Doctrineâ and Trumpâs push to reindustrialize the U.S. mean for the future of Latin America

For decades, Venezuela has been ravaged by socialism and the rule of strongmen like Hugo ChĂĄvez and NicolĂĄs Maduro. It is a country that has watched its most capable citizens flee for more than a decade. But after the shocking capture and arrest of NicolĂĄs Maduro, as you can imagine, Iâve been getting questions left and right from the Expat Money community about the situation in Venezuela. In todayâs episode, my co-host Marc Clair and I break down what this arrest means for international law and geopolitical power, what it may mean inside Venezuela, and why this is not a classic âregime changeâ story. We also speculate on the real motives behind the move, who may be pulling strings, and where this could go next. IN TODAYâS EPISODE* Listen in as Marc and I discuss what Maduroâs arrest means for international law and geopolitical power politics * Learn why this is not a traditional regime change and what that means for Venezuela internally * Hear our take on how this fits into Trumpâs renewed focus on Latin America and the Monroe Doctrine * Find out what we think the real motives are, who the key players may be, and what comes next

Longtime listeners of this podcast know that I have been talking about Latin America as the last real bastion of freedom for years. And the recent political shift away from its socialist past is clear evidence of this. In todayâs episode, we take a look back at the highlights from the past yearâs discussions of Latin Americaâs rising trend of freedom-oriented leaders like Javier Milei, Santiago Peña, Nayib Bukele, Jose RaĂșl Mulino, and more. Youâll see the clear evidence of what Iâve been shouting from the rooftops for years now: Latin America is the future. Enjoy!

Over the past decade, Canada has rapidly slid from a respected nation to one that many people now see as a cautionary tale of the logical end of extreme progressivism taking over a political system. Meanwhile, things here in Latin America are moving in the opposite direction, as the region continues to shift towards embracing more pro-freedom and pro-business policies. I sat down for a conversation with my friend Shaun Newman to discuss the current state of Canada and how it contrasts with what Iâve been seeing on the ground here in Latin America. We dive into the various factors contributing to Canadaâs decline, and contrast them with the massive pro-freedom changes currently happening in much of Latin America. Enjoy! IN TODAYâS EPISODE: Listen in as Shaun and I skewer Canadaâs environmental policies and green agenda, from bird-slaughtering wind farms to fines for walking in the woods* * Tune in as we lament on how we both used to feel pride while travelling the world as Canadians⊠but today, weâre embarrassed to admit where weâre from. * Shaun and I unpack how Air Canada strikes and broken infrastructure reveal the deeper rot inside the Canadian system * Hear how birth tourism, multiple passports, and raising a large, values-driven family form the backbone of my offshore Plan-B

Owning precious metals offshore is one of the cornerstones of any fully formed Plan-B. With governments constantly inflating currencies and manipulating markets, owning historyâs most reliable form of currency is a no-brainer.

In todayâs episode, I am joined by Jeremey Varlow, who oversees Business Development & SWP Capital for Strategic Wealth Preservation (SWP) in the Cayman Islands. Jeremy shares the story of how he found himself moving to the Cayman Islands from Vancouver, what life is like in Cayman for residents and investors alike, and what makes Cayman such an ideal offshore jurisdiction. IN TODAYâS EPISODE* Tune in as Jeremy shares the unique set of circumstances that led him from Canada to the Cayman Islands * Listen in to hear about Jeremyâs pathway to achieving Permanent Residency in Cayman, and what the eventual path to citizenship looks like * Learn what makes Cayman the premier offshore jurisdiction in the Caribbean * Find out how you can use offshore gold holdings for your financing by taking loans backed by your own gold. Amazing!

Brazil gets a bad rap. Most people picture crime, chaos, and corruption, but that outdated narrative is costing investors big. The truth? Brazilâs northeast is experiencing a quiet boom, driven by domestic tourism, an emerging middle class, and substantial infrastructure investment. Itâs a region most foreigners ignoreâand thatâs exactly why Iâve been investing serious capital there.

If your retirement money is tied up in an IRA or a 401(k) and exposed to the ups and downs of the U.S. stock market, your retirement savings may be more vulnerable than you think.

For the freedom-minded, thereâs plenty of doom and gloom where we look for itâwars, technocratic control systems, and economic collapse. But while most people stay stuck in fear or outrage, others are taking action. Theyâre securing second residencies, moving capital out of reach, and planting flags in places where freedom still has a fighting chance.In todayâs episode, I joined Hrvoje Moric on his program Geopolitics & Empire to discuss what Iâm seeing on the ground: which countries are best for freedom-minded expats, how I separate fantasy from reality in the offshore space, and why I believe the path to sovereignty lies in pragmatic actionânot black-pilled defeatism. TODAYâS CONVERSATION WITH HRVOJE MORIÄ* Listen in as I walk Hrvoje through my origin storyâfrom being labelled with a learning disability to building a life of international freedom. * Tune in as Hrvoje, and I discuss the repackaged push for a North American Union and why more centralization is the opposite of what the world needs. * Discover why Panama, Paraguay, and Uruguay top my list of countries best set up for expats. * Find out how Iâve helped clients stay grounded and realistic about expat lifeâwithout buying into the fear porn or the sunshine-and-rainbows fantasies. * Hear my response to critics who overgeneralize Latin Americaâand why sweeping narratives miss the real, nuanced opportunities on the ground. * Unpack how bureaucracies in many third-world countries' inefficiency act as a feature, not a bug, when attempting to implement technocratic controls. * Learn why I favour tangible assets, like international real estate and precious metals, over manipulated stock markets. * By the end of this episode, it will be clear why I reject black-pilled defeatism and instead focus on practical, pragmatic strategies to preserve liberty and wealth.

Long-time listeners know I was born in Canada, but itâs been a long time since Iâve considered it âhome.â Todayâs guest is a lifelong Canadian who has been podcasting for the past six years about faith, family, life in Canada and the topics that divide us. Shaun Newman has spent years questioning the systems around him, from the hockey rink to the political arena, offering his unique perspective from inside a rapidly declining Canada.In this episode, Shaun joins the show to explain Canada's horrifying slide toward socialism over the last decade. We discuss Trudeauâs recent âresignationâ and why a country so rich in resources struggles under socialism. Shaun unpacks the devastating impact of Canadaâs socialist policies and explains how these policies have eroded individual freedoms in the Great White North. TODAYâS CONVERSATION WITH SHAUN NEWMAN Tune in to find out how Shaun convinced me to travel to my native Canada for his Cornerstone Forum last yearâit wasnât easy! * Hear Shaunâs take on Trudeauâs âresignationâ and what we can expect from the next Prime Minister. * Learn why Canada should be one of the wealthiest countries in the world - and how its descent into socialism has hampered its potential. * Uncover the truth about Canadaâs insane âcarbon taxâ and all the shocking ways Canadians are being taxed. * Will Trump make Canada the next U.S. state? Shaun and I discuss Trumpâs claims about the future of Canadaâs relationship with the U.S. * Shaun and I explore the success of leaders like Nayib Bukele and Javier Milei and whether Canada can find its own visionary leader to guide them toward freedom. * Listen as Shaun unpacks the UNâs Agenda 2030 and its implications for Canadian sovereignty. * Hear Shaunâs thoughts on an offshore Plan-B and whether heâd consider the expat life if Canada continues in the wrong direction. * Learn about Canadaâs horrifying* âmedically assisted dyingâ (MAID) program and the shocking statistics about how itâs being used. * By the end of this episode, youâll fully understand why so many Canadians are reaching out to craft offshore Plan-Bs or considering leaving Canada altogether.

During my recent trip to the beautiful Balkan nation of Montenegro, I had the chance to sit down with my good friend Ladislas Maurice, who has lived and invested in the country for years. In this conversation, we talk a bit about immigration, taxes, company formation, etc. Enjoy this first-hand account of living in this gorgeous hidden gem in the Balkans. TODAYâS DISCUSSION ABOUT MONTENEGRO WITH LADISLAS MAURICE* Listen in to learn how my friend Ladislas became aware of Montenegro and why he quickly started getting involved in real estate projects in the country. * Discover the rapid changes to the real estate market over the last few years, spurred on by an influx of foreign investment. * Tune in to learn why Montenegro has such a âGeneva vibe,â with expats from various different cultures and political backgrounds all gathering peacefully. * Is it easy to become a resident of Montenegro? Learn about the various pathways available for expats to obtain a residency in this Balkan nation. * Uncover why countries like Montenegro (and much of Latin America) are a lot more âchilled outâ when it comes to rules and regulations than many North Americans are used to - and why thatâs a wonderful thing. * Hear a full breakdown of the tax situation in Montenegro, from corporate to personal to property tax. How does it stack up to its European neighbours? * Learn everything you need to know about property and real estate in Montenegro from a firsthand expert in Ladislas. * For Ladislas, Montenegro is a âPlan A.â But how does it stack up as a Plan-B for expats?

âWhy Panama?â I get this question every day, especially in a world where the word âexpatâ is still often associated with countries like the UAE, Portugal, Singapore, and others. It was not an easy decision, and it was not one my wife and I took lightly. When we decided to leave the UAE several years ago, we spent countless hours debating the pros and cons of several countries before deciding on Panama.Since I get this question so often, I decided that this week, I would share with you a presentation I gave at last yearâs Expat Money Summit, in which I lay out all the reasons we settled on Panama as our home base. This will also help give you an idea of the flavour of some of the presentations youâll hear at this yearâs Summit. And donât worryâI never do the same presentation twice, so youâll get all new content at this yearâs Expat Money Summit. TODAYâS EPISODE ON WHY I CHOSE PANAMA AS MY HOME BASE:* Tune in to hear me first lay out the good, the bad and the ugly of the UAE and why we decided to search for another home country. * Listen in to hear about the most pleasant experience one could ever have losing a wallet when I lost mine in a taxi in the UAE. * Hear me compare the stark differences in both the cost and quality of food between the UAE and Panama. * Learn about Panama's very favourable tax situation, a big factor for many expats looking to protect their hard-earned wealth. * Itâs not all about numbers. Discover all you need to know about the lifestyle in Panama and why it suits our family so well. * What about the visa options? Learn about Panamaâs many residency options and which pathway we chose (an option that is, unfortunately, no longer available.) * Is Panama safe? Find out what itâs like living here, how the country respects the rule of law, and whether you can legally own a gun here. * Lastly, youâll hear what itâs been like living in Panama City and why this Latin American metropolis has become such a hub for expats.

It seems like every day, a Private Client or subscriber to our newsletter asks me about El Salvador. I canât say I necessarily blame them; with everything Bukele has done, from turning around the violent crime situation to legalizing Bitcoin, there are plenty of reasons for expats to take an interest in the direction of this emerging Latin American country. But having not been to El Salvador myself for twenty-some-odd years, I decided to take a long weekend trip down there to meet up with a few business contacts and check out how things had progressed since I had last hitchhiked through it as a much younger man. This episode is my full report from the trip and my thoughts on El Salvadorâs potential for expats. TODAYâS EL SALVADOR TRIP REPORT: Hear about the good (Iâm still thinking about the pupusas!), the bat* (thatâs not a typoâŠ), and the ugly of my hotel and Airbnb stays in El Salvador. * Listen in for the inside scoop on some of the quite frankly terrible things I learned about El Salvador for expats, which mostly centers around the unfavourable tax situation. * What about the visas? Tune in as I discuss all the available options for expats to live legally in El Salvador. * Is Bukele really going to be giving out 5,000 âfree passports,â as he proclaimed in a tweet? Hear what my El Salvadoran insiders had to say. * How does the proposed $1 million âFreedom Visaâ stack up to other regional citizenship-by-investment programs? Hear my thoughts on this pricey offer. * What about company structures? I dissect whether El Salvador could be a viable option for forming offshore companies. * How does El Salvadorâs banking system stack up to its neighbours? Discover what I learned about finance in the nation. * Lastly, hear my final analysis of whether El Salvador could serve as a potential Plan-B destination for expats.

CONCLUSIONMy expat journey was sparked by a passion for exploring the world, experiencing new cultures, and learning how to leverage multiple residences and citizenships to build a true Plan-B and protect your wealth. My interest in entrepreneurship and finance led me to harness that passion and turn it into the company that you heard me fully describe to you in todayâs episode.

Even for those who never intend to leave their home country, there is no excuse not to have a Plan-B in place to protect your hard-earned wealth.

There is a centralized revolution occurring in health care, and now the concept of voluntary health sharing has emerged as a new avenue that freedom-minded expats can use to protect themselves and their families in the event of unexpected injury or illness. That's what today's guest, Andy Schoonover, joins me to discuss. Andy is the CEO and founder of CrowdHealth. The company uses a voluntary crowdfunding model to pay its users' medical bills and can even help them when they are overseas.

Andy digs into the root causes of such poor health trends in the U.S., even while having some of the best doctors in the world. * Uncover why Western medicine often misses the mark by focusing solely on treating symptoms while often neglecting the underlying health issues that cause them. * Hear Andy and me explain why a strong communityâ*like the one we have built here at Expat Moneyâis essential to a functioning healthcare system. * Discover how the CrowdHealth model of voluntary health sharing was inspired by how similar communities, such as those in Kenya as well as the Amish. * What type of people typically join the Crowd Health community? You wonât be surprised to hear a lot of similar qualities * Lastly, find out how Crowd Health can help expats when they experience unexpected medical issues while overseas.

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.

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 6â2â, 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 âEpi-Paleo Rx: The Prescription for Disease Reversal and Optimal Health.â TODAYâS 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 Bukeleâs health ministry. * Learn about the âoasis of decentralizationâ 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 CIAâs 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 wasnât crazy, even though he was saying the same things he had been saying for fifteen years. * Was moving to Panama inadvertently the healthiest decision Iâve made for my family? Dr. Kruse explains why its location provides a massive health upgrade to those moving climates further from the equator.

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 Bukeleâs plan to decentralize El Salvador definitely piqued my interest. While Iâm 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:
Veritas Panama - Offgrid Community
After 17 months of bureaucracy, my partners and I successfully got our permits for Veritas Panama! This is the fully off-grid community we are building in the highlands of Panama. We have already started building the roads, subdividing the lots, installing the septic and water, and even installing solar panels, so everything is independent of the power grid!The site we chose is unbelievable; we are up at a flat plateau about a thousand feet up a mountain with incredible unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean. To go to the beach, it is just 15 minutes down to the water.We have mature fruit trees on site, including these gorgeous 200-year-old mango trees and many other things, such as avocado trees, papayas, and delicious tropical fruits. You can find out more information and contact us at VeritasPanama.comBut please be aware that there are only 100 home sites, and without even talking about this to the general public, a lot of the lots are already soldâŠSo if you dream of living in a completely off-grid community, enjoying the beautiful weather, close to the beach, being food, water, and energy independent, and want to have like-minded and cool neighbours, people who respect personal, medical, and economic freedoms, then I want you to contact us at VeritasPanama.com today

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 Mileiâs work for years and is himself pursuing Argentinian citizenship.

While I have reservations about Argentina as a Plan-B recommendation, I canât 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.

From the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East to the tensions in the Taiwan Strait, itâs 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 todayâs 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. TODAYâS 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 longerâŠ) * 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 itâs to militarize the public towards war or agitate their fear of a pandemic, itâs 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.

Imagine being born and already having a leg up on your expat journey with a second passport. Thatâs exactly what our latest newborn son got to experience, even if heâs 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 todayâs 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. Enjoy! TODAYâS 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 wifeâs delivery performance. Sheâs 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 (sheâs totally fine, by the way). * Hear my impressions of Santiago, Chileâa 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 sonâs Chilean passport and birth certificateâit 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 wonât 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 todayâs episode, and Iâll see you all next Wednesday.
So many people were mad at me for missing the opportunity I presented on Saturday and not getting enough units for our community.

These units will be going to everyone on the waiting list. If you are not on the waiting list yet, then please send an email to expat@PuntaPacificaRealty.com and include your phone number and wait for a callback.

Have you 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 youâll find in this episode that I let loose a bit more than normal as I joined my friend Adam Carswell on his live show âAncap Radioâ on Twitter (or X, which Iâll never get used to sayingâŠ). Iâm not sure what was in the airâperhaps it was the show's âlive radioâ format of the showâbut 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. Thereâs even a special appearance from our mutual friend Doug Casey, who, of course, Expat Money Show listeners are more than familiar with. Enjoy this one - we sure did!

So often, I get asked the same questions over and over, and Adam is just great at keeping things conversational and really bringing out the rants that have been bubbling inside of me. Plus, you can never go wrong talking to Doug Casey. I highly encourage you to check out his live show when you get a chance. See you all next Wednesday. Mentioned in this episode:

Whatâs it really like to work with me? Thatâs 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, youâll see from these testimonials today what itâs 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 todayâs episode, you will get a glimpse into what itâs 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 Iâve 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 todayâs 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.

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? Todayâs 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 canât-miss for my American friends. TODAYâS 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 âbest in the businessâ 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 âtraditional IRAâ and a âRothâ 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 donât 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.
GET STARTED WITH YOUR SELF-DIRECTED IRA TODAYContact our partner Matt by email at m.calhoun@trustetc.com to fill out an application and start taking control of your retirement today. Tell him Mikkel Thorup sent you, and heâll get you started right away.

RELATED EPISODES284: Building Wealth In Paraguay's Real Estate Boom261: Preparing Your Investments for the Coming Recession - Rick Rule242: De-Dollarization and a BRICS Commodity-Backed Reserve Currency CONCLUSIONI am always harping on the fact that the stock market is about the most dangerous place you can have your money right now, so much so that I have nearly divested myself of stocks completely as the world continues to move away from the dollar and the U.S. economy rests on shaky ground. Itâs crucial to act now to protect your wealth with overseas investments. While this episode wonât 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 Iâve 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:

In todayâs episode, Iâm going to provide an update on everything thatâs been going on over the past few weeks, culminating with my birthday party here in Panama that saw over 200 like-minded people coming together for an incredible celebration. 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, itâs been a busy few weeks, but theyâve also been incredibly important. With how fast things are changing in today's world, this is no time to take the foot off the gasâit's time to accelerate, and that's exactly what you'll be seeing my team and I do this year. Today, Iâll share all the details and preview a bit of what the Expat Money team and I have planned for the year ahead. TODAYâS UPDATE EPISODE: Listen in to hear about my trip to Turkey to finalize renovations on the home that we recently purchased in Istanbul. * Learn about the recent investors tour we held in Panama prior to the party, where clients of mine came down to view some of the absolute gems of real estate deals that are brewing down here. * Find out why this will probably be the last of these investors' tours in Panama for a while and what we plan to do next year in its place. Itâs going to be even more exciting! * Hear the details of the upcoming Luxury Expat Exploration and Investment Tour in Paraguay. Many of my clients have become interested in this country lately, and weâre going to spend nine days exploring in style. * Listen to the breakdown of my 41st birthday party - from the food, fireworks, and festivities to the amazing conversations with friends and clients. * Find out why itâs absolutely critical that you act RIGHT NOW to get Panama residency by investment before the minimum investment nearly doubles* this year.

Todayâs guest is Seth for Privacy. Seth is a freedom maximalist and privacy advocate. He is the head of strategy and content for âFoundation Devices,â 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 oneâs 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 âFreedom Money.â * Listen to Seth unveil some of the easiest âleversâ people can enact right away to increase their own privacy. * Learn why Seth is opposed to âprivacy maximalism.â Just as I say, there is no âShangri-Laâ 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 âalways-onâ 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.

In todayâs episode, I'm going to share with you 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 got to meet Fernando when I took a trip to Paraguay last year to explore the country on the ground, and we became not only fast friends but business partners as well. 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 attendees of the webinar as we recorded it live. If you missed last weekâs episode, be sure to go back and listen to that one first so youâre all caught up. Enjoy! TODAYâS PANEL ON BUILDING WEALTH IN PARAGUAYâS 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 âperfect stormâ 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 Fernandoâs 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 - itâs 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 âcherry on top,â 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 Paraguayâs coming real estate boom.

In todayâs episode, I'm going to share with you a recent webinar I hosted about the incredible investment opportunities in Paraguay I discovered on my recent trip to that off-the-radar South American country.I invited my friend Fernando in to break down why Paraguayâs 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! TODAYâS PRESENTATION ON PARAGUAYâS 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 Paraguayâs 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 Paraguayâs 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 Iâm a huge fan of. * Hear Fernando expertly break down the current housing âproblemâ in Paraguay - a problem that is music to the ears of investors looking to capitalize on a real estate market thatâs 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 Paraguayâs 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 wonât be able to get anywhere else!

This is a country that is still off-the-radar enough that you can still get some great deals - especially if you go through Fernando.

In todayâs episode, I'm going to do something a little bit different and share with you guys what has been going on with my health over the last two weeks or so. 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. Youâll hear it in my voice that Iâm 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. EXPAT HEALTH INSURANCEIf one thing should be clear from my story today, it is that it is absolutely essential to plan for the worst-case scenario when you are living abroad or travelling.

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. We can never prepare for every possible scenario, but we can take actionable steps to put ourselves and our families in the best possible position to cope with the unexpected when it inevitably strikes.

In todayâs episode, 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. TODAYâS CONVERSATION WITH DR. RON PAUL * Listen in to Dr. Paulâs 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. Paulâs opinion on where in the world would be a safe place to go if a World War III scenario were to play out. * * * You wonât want to miss Ronâs 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, youâll get Ron Paulâs 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 canât 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. Paulâs perspective as much as I always do. Iâll see you next Wednesday!

Todayâs 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.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 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!* * Whatâs it like living next door to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine?

Todayâs guest is Peter Schiff, an American stockbroker, financial commentator and radio personality. He is the CEO and chief global strategist of Euro Pacific Capital Inc. This is a conversation that I was originally a part of this yearâs 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 Peterâs take on the most recent trends in the price of gold and how itâs affected by inflation and government deficit spending. * Hear Peterâs 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 âmainstreamâ economists. * If you think the headlines showing 20% inflation looks bad, wait until you hear Peterâs breakdown of what sort of inflation weâve 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 Peterâs thoughts on why he didnât 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 Iâm 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. Peterâs 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 itâs getting your money into offshore investments or starting the process of acquiring a second passport, itâs 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.

Believe it or not, Iâve been wanting to get him on since I first started this podcast over five years ago! As you can see Bennyâs approach to learning a new language is vastly different from that of many of the language apps and programs youâll typically find out there. At the end of the day, there is simply nothing that can replace just getting in there and speaking the language, and the sooner you can start doing that regularly, the faster youâll become a fluent communicator. Heck, if you start now, you could be well on your way to mastering a new language by next Wednesday. See you then!

In todayâs episode, I am going to provide a breakdown of my recent trip to Paraguay. 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, youâll 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 âhub and spokeâ 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! * I describe my visit to an exclusive German-speaking* community (you read that right) in the middle of Paraguay! * 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 canât advise anyone to act just yet, there are definitely some projects to keep an eye on.

In todayâs 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 âmasonicâ hotel. * I discuss how I got to meet in person to plan the future of international cities - as discussed in last weekâs 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, youâll 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!

Todayâs guest is Titus Gebel, a German entrepreneur with a Ph.D. in International law. He is the inventor of the âFree Citiesâ 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. Iâve 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 Iâm excited to share todayâs conversation in which we discuss the future of what is now being rebranded as âInternational Cities.âTODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH TITUS GEBEL* * Listen to Titus detail how his ideas about free cities spawned from his frustration with politics. * * * Hear about Titusâs 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 (SEZâs). * * * Titus and I discuss the concept of âgovernment as a serviceâ and how the services weâre used to getting from coercive governments can be delivered through the free cities model. * * * Listen to Titus explain the new branding of âinternational citiesâ to counter the allergy governments have to the words âfreeâ and âprivate.â * * * Titus and I roll our eyes together at the concept of the âsocial contract,â - 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. *

In todayâs episode, 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, Iâll 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 Iâve been to before, with minimal feeling of a culture of itsâ own. * Youâll 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 âMuseum of Propagandaâ 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 Iâve ever had. I canât stop thinking about this! * Hear me break down Armeniaâs 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?

Azerbaijan is a country that doesnât 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, thereâs no âShangri-La,â perfect libertarian country out there. Itâs about finding the right balance thatâs best for your own personal situation, and itâs my sincere hope that in-depth reports like the ones youâve heard over the last month provide insights that youâll never get from a tourist guidebook or a government website.

In todayâs episode, 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, including an update on the citizenship by investment I am working on from there. While it was an incredible trip, it wasnât all roses, as we had some challenges to face along the way. I donât hold back - youâll get the good, the bad and the ugly of my experience in Turkey, one of my favourite countries. Enjoy! TODAYâS 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 motherâs 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.

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, Iâd 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 donât have to. And rest assured, when itâs 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:

Todayâs guest is Alex Voss, a board member and the CFO of TIPOLIS, a company committed to becoming the creator, owner and operator of a global portfolio of international, autonomous cities.

If everything were perfect and predictable, the costs wouldn't be as attractive as there are today. You are paid handsomely for the perceived risk. * Alex and I discuss the interesting case of El Salvador and whether itsâ adoption of Bitcoin could make it a prime location for a free city project itself. * Listen to Alex give an inside look at how and why the doors have rapidly begun to open in the last several years when it comes to finding opportunities with sympathetic governments for potential free city prospects. * We discuss how the economic impact of the COVID years, along with the rise of digital nomadism, have completely changed the landscape for the viability of free cities.

In today's episode, we are going to break from format a bit, as it has been a crazy week in the expat world, with a ton of news breaking that affects a number of popular CBI programs.
Unfortunately, none of it is good news.
I'm not here to sugarcoat things but rather to deliver the truth of what is going on in the world so that you can make the best decisions possible on your expat journey.
Tune into this special breaking news edition of the Expat Money Show, wherein I break down all of the changes that have occurred in the last week and how they will affect those looking to do citizenship-by-investment programs in certain countries.
I also provide some insight into my own experience working through a St. Kitts CBI for myself. Luckily having gotten my paperwork done before these changes, I will most likely be unaffected by this.
Enjoy the episode, and remember that the right time to act on your expat dreams is always 'ASAP.'

The best we can do is stay up to date on what is going on and plan accordingly.
I emphasize to my clients all the time to "act now" because you never know when these programs will change or just end altogether. This week is an unfortunate real-life example of just that.
Todayâs guest is Jim Lennertz, an American-born entrepreneur and adventurer.

If youâve thought about investing in agricultural land, you cannot miss this conversation! * Listen to us discuss why learning the local language as an expat is not just a convenience; itâs a matter of personal responsibility. * Lastly, we cover the subject of the dreaded âgringo pricingâ - how to avoid it and how to deal with it.

Todayâs guest is the news editor over at Antiwar.com and host of the daily podcast Antiwar News with Dave DeCamp. In this episode, we will be discussing the geopolitical situation as we head into a possible World War III scenario.

Is he really a hero, as many libertarians seem to believe, or is he another wolf in sheepâs clothing? * What would a full-scale war involving the U.S., Russia, or China look like? Dave breaks down the frightening possibilities of âwarfare weâve never seen before.â * Has World War III already begun? Dave and I discuss the idea that the war has already begun and how the definition of just what constitutes an act of war has shifted so drastically in recent years. * We discuss Turkey's unique role as a peace broker and a thorn in the side of NATO in many ways, even while being a member state. * What does Vladimir Putin want, and how far is the U.S. willing to continue to escalate its vast funding of the war in Ukraine? Dave and I both ponder these questions. * We also dig into the role some surprising countries have played in escalating tensions, like my former home Canada and even the supposedly neutral Switzerland. * Dave and I cap things off by discussing what the best region of the world would be if a full World War really does break out.

Does Antony think Iâm nuts? Youâll have to listen to find out!

TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH JOHNNY HODL Listen to Johnny describe the evolution of his political views and how adopting Bitcoin in 2016 led him to a more freedom-oriented philosophy. * Johnny explains what was the exodus point that prompted him to permanently leave his home country of the United Kingdom. * Hear Johnny and I discuss the hubris displayed by many in the West supporting lockdowns while many of those in the developing world didnât have the convenience of âjust staying home.â * We examine why the âsoft admissionâ of guilt over the COVID narrative isnât enough of a recanting from those supporting it. * Johnny and I talk about the lack of ethics in the COVID policies implemented and why even if all the data were correct, it would still be a major ethical violation to enforce lockdowns, vaccine mandates, etc. * Listen to Johnny describe how, once you take the âred pillâ regarding the nature of government, itâs hard not to see government at every level as a monopoly on violence. * I drive home the notion that after 23 years of travelling the world and visiting over 100 countries, voting with your feet, i.e. being an expat and utilizing offshore markets, is absolutely hands down the best solution I have ever found. * We discuss how governments around the globe are starting to close their doors in various ways - including the looming threat of CBDCs. * Johnny provides his view of what âsovereigntyâ is and how others can reclaim more of their sovereignty as he has by seeking out more freedom abroad. * Johnny and I both reflect on how, once taking personal responsibility for every single aspect of your life and respect natural law, life simply gets better. * We have an interesting back-and-forth on the correlation between wealth and happiness. Does the ethics by which* the wealth is acquired affect the happiness of those who hold it? Iâd love to hear my listener's thoughts on this!

While my focus is on the actions you can take to achieve more freedom as an expat, the ethics behind those actions are vitally important, and it was great to hear about Johnnyâs evolution on the subject and how he has now come to see individual sovereignty as an ethical ideal. Youâre gonna love this one.

Iâve received such a great response and questions from listeners interested in this opportunity over the last few days, so I figured I would go ahead and share our Q&A section.

In todayâs episode, I am going to share a portion of this past weekendâs workshop on Brazil, in which I gave a presentation about the de-dollarisation that is happening in the world and what we're going to see with either a new reserve currency or a second reserve currency in the world.

Itâs truly mindblowing to think of the potential of their combined power. * I address the biggest question my audience will be asking: so how do we play this?

Since then, he has spent â1 minute or moreâ in 81 countries, with an average time of 58 days per country.

Often I get asked by subscribers and clients, "Hey Mikkel, What Are You Doing?" So I thought it would be helpful to record a quick episode on what I am doing with my own money to protect myself and my family from the financial armageddon that is on the horizon. This episode should give you a bit of insight into the way my brain works and what I think is important for us to defend ourselves. I don't expect my opinions to be popular, but at least I am honest. Enjoy,Mikkel
Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is John Perkins. John is the author of the legendary book âConfessions of an Economic Hitmanâ and first appeared on the show way back in Episode 71. He has now published an updated version of the book titled Confessions of an Economic Hit Man, 3rd Edition â Chinaâs EHM Strategy; Ways to Stop the Global Takeover, featuring 12 new chapters breaking down how China has essentially become the worldâs âeconomic hitman.âLongtime listeners will surely recognize that John and I share some differing world views, and I certainly do not endorse his beliefs on things like white supremacy, climate change, vegetarianism and feminism, to name a few. Nonetheless, his experience and insights are incredibly valuable, and you will certainly learn a ton from this conversation. TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH JOHN PERKINS: Listen in to hear John explain in detail what an âEconomic Hitmanâ - or âEHMâ strategy is from his own personal experience implementing it on behalf of first-world nations and banking elites and how he came to understand the dark side of what he was doing. * John details the predatory nature of the EHM strategy and the devastating effects it has had on third-world nations. You wonât believe the shocking statistics about the average age in Africa. * Hear John reveal the nefarious methods the EHM strategists use to manipulate statistics like GDP to display positive effects on the economy while the underlying reality paints a much bleaker picture for the citizens of the nations targeted by it. * Then we discuss the difference between honest entrepreneurship - the kind that I practice in my business - and âcronyismâ or âpredatory capitalism.â * John explains how China has shifted its own economic hitman strategy under President Xi Jinping over the last ten years and their nefarious motivations for doing so. * We dig into what John describes as the âdeath economyâ - as the EHM competition between the leaders of China and the United States wreaks economic havoc* across the globe. * John and I further discuss current global political issues and the different levels of attention conflicts in Ukraine and Yemen receive from the media and the general public. * John drives home how many individuals have embraced changes in the last three years and the need to change our perception of our current socio-economic and governmental systems. * We discuss the very different perceptions of âsuccessâ in Latin America and how things like spending time with family and friends often take higher priority than the gain of material goods in that region. * Lastly, we discuss Chinaâs increasingly interwoven relationship with Latin America and the impacts, both positive and negative, on the region.

Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is Jonathan Lockwood, a pro voice over talent originally from Detroit and currently living in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico.

I enjoyed getting to know Jonathan and you are going to learn a ton from this conversation.

Youâll be wanting to book your trip to San Miguel after hearing this! * Then we discuss how Jonathan developed a passion for artisanal Mezcal that he sources from âthe Disneyland of Mezcalâ in Oaxaca, Mexico.

Today on the Expat Money Show, I am going to share a conversation I had last year on The Tom Woods Show. This interview has gotten such a great response since it first aired that I wanted to share it here with you to make sure you didn't miss it.Tom didn't let me off easy and really put me on the hot seat, bringing up a ton of objections that many who are first hearing about the expat lifestyle tend to come up with. Answering Common Expat Objections* In this discussion, I respond to some common âblack pilled" takes that Tom has heard about the negative side of expatriation, dispelling the notion that the advantages you can achieve outside your country of birth arenât all that great when you break it down. * There is no Shangri-La - no perfect libertarian country in the world. It does not exist. But that's not to be said that we can't get more freedom in our lives by being overseas or by jurisdiction shopping. * I explain to Tom exactly what FATCA - the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act - is and how it works, and why itâs even caused some Americans to go as far as to renounce their U.S. citizenship! * I address Tomâs concern that whatever problems you have in the U.S., they may very well be worse outside the U.S., as was the case in certain countries when it came to COVID restrictions. * Tom and I talk about how Americans can utilize the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion to greatly reduce their tax burden while living overseas. * I break down the concept of citizenship by investment and how the process typically unfolds for those with substantial funds to invest overseas. * I lay out the many reasons to have a second passport, even if you do not plan to live outside your home country! * I provide some definitive first steps to take for those that have caught the expat bug and are ready to take their expat journey to the next level.

CONCLUSIONI hope you enjoyed today's conversation on The Tom Woods Show. Tom is an excellent interviewer, and I loved how he pressed me on some of the common objections people who are first learning about the expat lifestyle often hold. These are questions that don't often come up here on the Expat Money Show, where I primarily interview those who are already on the expat journey, so it was a great change of pace.This is the perfect episode to share with that friend or family member who has expressed interest in the expat lifestyle but has been hesitant to go further due to many of the objections addressed in this conversation. Enjoy!
In todayâs episode of The Expat Money Show, I am going to recap the last incredible week in Panama, beginning with a hugely informative conference for private clients and culminating in my 40th birthday party.
Really the last week has been truly unbelievable. We had clients fly in from every corner of the world, literally from everywhere.
I am still decompressing from a busy and eventful week, but I wanted to first stop and take the time to record this episode for you and update you all on some other goings on here at Expat Money while everything is fresh on my mind.
PANAMA CONFERENCE AND BIRTHDAY PARTY RECAP* I recap the start of the week with the investor's conference I put on in Panama with private clients from diverse places like Germany, Thailand and New Zealand attending. * I explain the difference between my "private" clients and my "regular" clients and how you can become one! * This week highlights why I like to get to know my prospective clients personally before I take them on - because I spend a LOT of time with them! * The type of information provided at this conference would literally take months or even years of research to acquire on your own - offshore investing and residency is definitely not a 'DIY' type of thing. * Meanwhile, we also formally launched The Expats Guide on Moving to Mexico, which has already launched to #1 in the "libertarianism" category on Amazon! * I also provide a preview of the upcoming trips I am planning in the next year for private clients. If these sounds interesting to you, read this important letter and consider if becoming a private is a good fit for you. * Finally, I reflect on my 40th birthday party that was made so special by the 150 + attendees who travelled from places like Germany, the Netherlands, Ireland, the UK, Brazil, Colombia, Canada, USA, etc. - all culminating in an amazing fireworks display! * Ultimately, these events are about building a community and realizing that we aren't the crazy ones out there. We in the Expat Money community are building a better and brighter future for ourselves while much of the world goes mad.

CONCLUSIONI hope you enjoyed today's episode in which I've provided just a small glimpse into the type of conferences, tours and celebrations I put together for my friends and clients in the Expat Money community.I want to once again thank everyone who joined us in Panama and came out to celebrate my birthday.
And as I said earlier, and it really is worth repeating; this party is not about me...
It's about you.
We are not just some online group or a podcast, no. We are a real-life community of people who understand what is going on in the world and will actually do something about it.
Our plan is to do many more private events this year for clients, so I hope this episode will serve as a great preview of what's to come should you decide to become one. Enjoy!
Today on the Expat Money Show I am going to do a "freedom read", a concept inspired by my friend Kevin Koskella on his Freedom Lovin' Podcast, where he would read sections of prominent freedom books which I thought was such a cool idea. So today I am going to be reading the first few chapters from my recently published book, the Expats Guide on Moving to Mexico.We haven't even done an official launch of this book yet, so we need to help people realize it's out there. In today's reading, you'll learn much of the basics of why so many expats have been moving to the beautiful country of Mexico. The Expats Guide on Moving to Mexico* The Expats Guide on Moving to Mexico is a comprehensive A to Z guide through everything you need to know about Mexico and the processes behind moving there or setting up a Plan B residency in the country. * Getting a residency in Mexico is not that complicated or expensive. So donât fear; in my new book, I go into detail about what the process is like and how you can do it yourself. * I explain my first task as the author of this book - to discuss mindset. Are you ready for a change, and how will you accomplish it? * My goal is to present the full reality of Mexico to the fullest extent of my ability - the good, the bad, and the ugly. * I address some of the biggest fears many have of becoming an expat. Are any of these holding you back? * I outline some of the reasons Mexico can provide an excellent quality of life, including some advantages you might not expect. * I discuss who this book is NOT for. Yes, it won't be for everyone. * I lay out the major differences between living in Mexico vs. living in places like the USA, Canada and Europe.

We want to make this a number-one bestseller. We need lots of reviews out there. So pick up the book and let me know what you think. Hopefully, you get lots of value. Send me a note or put a review on Amazon. I'm going to read everything. Thanks!
Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is Ramiro Romani. He is a technologist, activist, educator, and entrepreneur who dropped his corporate career to work on meaningful social movements. His company, Above Agency, recently released Above Phone â a complete privacy phone solution that combines secure hardware, open-source operating systems, and cutting-edge privacy services.I know the issue of privacy is of utmost importance to Expat Money Show listeners, and today's episode will open your eyes to how your phone tracks you every single day and the actionable steps you can take to stop it. How to Stop Your Phone From Spying on You* If you've long suspected your phone is spying on you, trust us, it is. Today's episode will give you the tools you need to begin to fight back. * Ramiro delves into his background as a software engineer and how he realized the Big Tech companies are a part of the privacy problem. * I discuss with Ramiro how he decided to shift his priorities and help build systems outside of Big Tech's grasp and bring heart back to their technology, quitting his job to become a full-time activist in movements such as the Freedom Cell Network before founding Above Agency in 2021. * Ramiro breaks down how his software team went about creating Above Phone by âDe-Googlingâ their phone and using open-source software to tweak existing open-source platforms * We discuss in detail why having a privacy phone is so important and how Big Tech companies track everything you do because YOU are the product. * Ramiro shares some SHOCKING examples of how innocent lives have been affected by big-tech spying. * I discuss with Ramiro the 3 layers of tracking through the Operating Systems, the apps and the telecom companies. * We look at one of the most common questions Ramiro fields regarding why they use âthe Devilâ aka Google to build a privacy phone instead of using Linux or another system? * Ramiro and I examine why itâs important to accept incremental steps in taking privacy back and not let the lack of the perfect tool prevent you from taking any precautions against Big Tech. * We examine how even âprivacyâ companies track and mine data from their users and make false claims about their products while portraying a privacy face on the surface. * Ramiro gives an on-screen demonstration of how some of the available apps work - this is a great reason to head over and watch the video on the Expat Money YouTube channel! * We even learn how it's possible to use a phone without being exposed to ANY EMF at all by using an ethernet adaptor!

Today on the Expat Money Show, I want to go back to basics and ensure that everybody understands the terms we discussed so that you can make the right decision for yourself and your family if you decide to become an Expat and plan for the future.I realize that not everyone understands the verbiage and lexicon that immigration entails. There are many different types of immigration visas; there is not a one size fits all approach to this. IMMIGRATION BACK TO BASICS Confused about the lexicon or language when it comes to immigration? Many people are. This is the episode that you wonât want to miss. * I start with the most basic language, so youâll 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.
CONCLUSIONI hope today's episode was beneficial to you and works as a real complement to the three-hour workshop I did on Saturday. If you have more questions after watching the presentation and want to go through the CBI programs we discussed and join me on some of these things, there's a special email address just for people who registered and attended that presentation. I also want to say that if you're listening to today's episode and you registered for the workshop but did not get a chance to attend it, and you've received the email with part one and part two, you only have a couple of days left to watch the presentation and then I'm going to be locking it away. It's not a presentation I want floating everywhere on the internet. This is not a YouTube video or something. It's all password protected, and it's going to be secured. So grab yourself a big cup of coffee or a bowl of popcorn, take lots of notes and email me 'I'm In'.
Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is James Baker, a Certified Public Accountant and international tax expert. He helps expats and foreign nationals grow their businesses and protect their wealth with custom tax planning strategies tailored for US expats and foreign nationals alike. TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH JAMES, Listen in to hear James talk about helping non-residents use US companies and bank accounts to save money on taxes. * We dig into the US as an offshore jurisdiction and how the systems function. * We talk about strong asset protection and wealth protection laws in the USA and that most CPAs donât understand that the US is the largest tax haven in the world. * One of the biggest concerns Jimâs clients have is about information sharing. Itâs a big concern, and listen to why that is. * If you are a tax resident of any country outside the US, doing a service business, an e-commerce business, or some kind of coaching business, Jim shares a ton of information for you. * Understanding the tax laws of the country you live in or pay taxes to is highly important. Itâs one of the many aspects of my business that I help people with daily. * Jim lets us in on his favourite states* for setting up structures and what you should look for. * The bottom line is Jim can help you and your business make more money and pay less in taxes.

Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is Jeremy Cordon from Goldbacks. Jeremy has always had an interest in precious metals. On a whim, he quit a high-paying job to become one of the first full-time employees of the UPMA (Utah Precious Metals Association). He was able to help grow the organization from 400 members to over 25,000. In 2019, he created the Gold product known as the Goldback. This exhibited Gold in spendable quantities for the first time. Using a patented production process, he effectively set up a novel product in one of the oldest industries known to man. TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH JEREMY CORDON Jeremy and I discuss in detail how the idea of Goldback began and the difficulties they had to overcome to create this amazing product. * Imagine using real gold,* not a digital reflection of gold, but real gold to buy and sell almost anything you want. How would that work? * Wondering if Goldbacks can be counterfieted? Listen to find out! * What interested me about the Goldbacks was the divisibility. Jeremy explains how it works. * If youâre thinking about how legal the Goldbacks are, Jeremy runs through the laws that have been put into place throughout the United States. I found this super interesting. * Can the Goldbacks be used in other countries besides the USA? * You will be pleasantly surprised if you havenât seen the beautiful art on every Goldback. * Listen to find out where you can purchase your own Goldbacks. * We talk about the commerce aspect and bartering with Goldbacks * How do you find these people or stores when you want to buy something with your Goldback? Is there some way to identify them?

Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is Michael Strong, my partner and co-founder of the Expat International School of Freedom & Entrepreneurship. His experience in the education system is vast and varied. Iâve had the pleasure of working alongside him for about three years now, creating this amazing program for students ages 8-19. In todayâs conversation, we will focus on expat families and the most crucial age for children. Iâm excited to have him back on our show. TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH MICHAEL STRONG Michael explains what our school is all about and why it is so important to reach students, especially middle school-age kids, as early as possible. * What happens when traditional government-run schools become boring and meaningless? * Parents ask Michael all the time. You run an online school. What is the difference in the dynamic when kids are addicted to online games? Are you not part of the problem? * What is the fundamental difference between passive and active education? * Understanding the program's flexibility is vital for families wanting to travel and to ensure their children donât suffer with their education. * Michael explains how our program is only for 4.5 hours a day, but the traditional school might be 7.5 or 8 hours a day. What is the difference, and how can that work efficiently? * If your child is not thriving, take it seriously. Learn why this is vital information. * What is the future for your children? Are they being educated on something that will not be around in 10 or 20 years, as government-run institutions teach? Or is it something that your child will love and be able to adapt for the rest of their life? * The best question asked about âFree Education.â Hereâs Michael Strongâs answer to that if youâre wondering about the program's cost for this level of education. * Homeschooling by professionals* is how Michael Strong explained this type of education to me when I first met him and how I now explain our system.

Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is George Della Pietra, Founder of the SafeBlood Donation. For over 20 years, George has been in the medical field of studies, focusing on naturopathy and many different kinds of natural healing methods. He runs a naturopathic clinic which focuses on viruses, bacteria and vaccination damage, and for the past 10 years, he has run a health resort in Thailand. TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH GEORGE DELLA PIETRAI want to say that this episode is not meant to attack anyone that chose to get the Covid vaccine. This is not about shaming anyone. People were under a lot of pressure to get the vaccine, and many realized later they should not have got the shots. This is new information, and I believe itâs vitally important to get this out to my listeners. We start off talking about blood donations today and how they have changed over the past five years. Youâll be amazed at the countries that DO NOT allow you to choose your blood donor. * And good luck asking for unvaccinated blood, it just wonât happen. We talk about a family in New Zealand and what happened there, it will break your heart. * So you may be wondering, whatâs the big deal? What does it matter if I get vaccinated or unvaccinated blood during an operation? George explains the many complications that can arise. * Imagine hospitals worldwide changing procedures for direct blood donations and saying itâs the law, but George explains what he believes has happened. Are these hospitals lying to the public? * George discusses the countries that are open to direct blood donations so that if you are in need of unvaccinated blood, you can travel there. * mRNA vaccines. What does that actually mean? And how different are they from the childhood vaccines we all got when we were young? * We discuss how SafeBlood Donations work,* and what success they have had worldwide. * We talk in detail about freedom. How to get more and keep what youâve got! Such an important concept! * Check out the article we wrote: How To Find Blood From Unvaccinated Donors and Which Countries Are Leading The Charge.

Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is Thibault Serlet, the Director of Research at the Adrianople Group, a business intelligence firm that focuses on Special Economic Zones and master-planned cities. He is also the architect of Open Zone Map, the worldâs largest SEZ dataset. He advises for Pronomos, a VC fund that invests in new city projects and co-founded the Startup Societies Network, a charter cities think tank. He frequently writes about SEZs, economic history, and the open data movement.
TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH THIBAULT
If you are a business owner looking for more freedom living as an expat, this episode is for you. Thibault shares with us his biggest reasons and strategies for setting up your company in a special economic zone.
Is your company facing regulatory problems? I believe you can find a solution, no matter your industry, so keep listening.
Exactly what is a special economic zone, and why do governments create them?
Where is the very best place to look for the best special economic zone for your company?
Interesting facts about when the first special economic zone was created; no, it wasnât the Shenzhen Zone. Listen to hear the fascinating history behind this concept.
Youâll be amazed at how these special economic zones work, what they can and canât do inside their area, and how many there are throughout the world.Â
The next question is why? Why would you open an SEZ anywhere in the world? After listening to this episode, your next company may be in an SEZ.
If an SEZ sounds like a good idea for you and your company, how do you pick the right one? If there are thousands of them worldwide, which one is right for you? Thibault shares his theory on this!
Wondering what business best suits using an SEZ? I talk to Thibault about this exact thing.

Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is Francisco Litvay, Co-founder of Settee, an internationalization company. At age 17, he moved from Brazil and, at 21, became a digital nomad, having been in more than 20 countries on 4 continents since then. He specializes in Special Economic Zones and Charter Cities and is an ambassador for the Free Private Cities Foundation and Head of Internationalization at the Adrianople Group, a business intelligence firm focused on special jurisdictions.
TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH FRANCISCO
Today I chat with Francisco Litvay about the power of free cities and private cities and how they just work better. If youâre new to this idea, listen to the entire podcast, thereâs so much we unpack.
We discuss the possibility of creating a voluntary system of government and how that can help your business, how you can pay less taxes, and how free zones can help you move to different countries.
And if youâve ever wondered how each of my podcast episodes is connected, week after week, Iâll let you in on the secret during this show. Â
A fascinating conversation on the practicality of libertarianism, what are the big projects in this space really have legs, things that are up and coming and what Francisco is working on right now.
Francisco and I talk about ZEDEs, the concept, and the value they bring to the world. We talk a lot about Honduras and what it will mean to the country, but there are many around the world.Â
We delve into other jurisdictions like Uruguay and the UAE, how their governments have handled special economic zones, and what the incentives are for businesses set up in these zones.
Youâve decided that you love the idea of a free zone, and you want to participate; Francisco discusses the company formation side, the banking side, the living side, and anything you can actually do to increase your own freedom using this vehicle and this varies from country to country, so listen carefully.
Special Economic Zones in Africa? Countries like SĂŁo TomĂ© and PrĂncipe or Nigeria. Maybe these are great alternative countries and islands that we should look at?
If you want to see where all of the special economic zones are across the world, basically every zone on earth, go to Open Zone Map. If it's a charter city, a free zone, a free port, private or public, or if you really want to learn about zones and see where there are opportunities close to you, check out the open zone map; Iâll give you the link below.

Today on the Expat Money Show we're going to republish a webinar presentation that I did a few days ago with my friends Ally and Patrick from EcoVillages. It was an awesome presentation, and we had literally hundreds of people on the line.
I also know that there are thousands of people who listen to the podcast from every corner of planet earth, many from different time zones, who were not able to watch the webinar live, so by republishing it this way, everyone from around the globe can listen to this presentation.
It is worth mentioning that Patrick made a special offer in the presentation which was set to expire a few days ago. I twisted his arm to get him to extend it by a week to Aug 22, 2022. This should give everyone a chance to listen to the presentation and be able to email him if you are interested.
His team can be reached at expat@EcoVillages.life
WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN THIS WEBINARÂ
I'm going to spoil the surprise a little bit, but Patrick made a very, very generous offer on this presentation⊠make sure you listen to find out what it was!
This surprise had a set date of the 15th of this month, which just passed. I had dinner with him the other night, and I got him to agree to move that date just by a few days. Donât miss your chance!
What is âAgroforestryâ anyways? And what is the concept behind agroforestry? Before you can make a good decision, you really have to understand these concepts!

TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH FOSTER GAMBLE
Imagine growing up in the Proctor and Gamble family. What that life looked like and how having such a family can influence you.
What life is like when you realize that everything youâve ever been taught, about money, history, and physics, was all a lie and not actually true?
We talk about humanity, spiritual energy, and interpersonal energy.Â

Great question for Foster, âhow would you simplify the entire world situation into a sentence?â Incredible answer.
We talk about the ânon-aggression principle and if youâre not sure what that is, make sure to listen today. I believe once you understand fully, this will become part of your day-to-day life.

This might be an episode you listen to more than once. Enjoy!
Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is Chuck Smith the co-founder of the Polyglot Gathering, contributor of Duolingoâs Esperanto course and founder of the Esperanto Wikipedia, among other Esperanto and polyglot projects.Â
He had the idea for a GPS device to find fellow Esperanto speakers while travelling through Brazil in 2002 but needed to wait 15 years for the technology to catch up, so he could pursue this dream.Â
Now he looks forward to meeting the challenges ahead to help people everywhere connect to make the world a better place.
TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH CHUCK
What is Esperanto, where did it come from, and why is Esperanto important?
Why do people use Esperanto?Â
Does Esperanto have any politics attached to it? Is it a nation-state type of language?Â

I talk with Chuck about his app âAmikumu,â what it does and how we can all learn about other Esperanto speakers when we travel to new countries or a different city.Â
Chuck and I discuss how someone would really learn the language of Esperanto, what you need to know and do to be fluent and how long that would take.
You would be amazed at the number of hours required to pick up a new language, depending on what your native language is and what you want to learn in a new language. Itâs not as bad as most people think.
Best advice, tips and tricks if you want to learn the language of Esperanto!

Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is Dr. Kolja Spori, Formula 1 Agent and Austrian Economist who has visited all 193 countries of the world. In his quest to seek truth and liberty, he met freedom fighters, guerrillas and warlords, such as the FARC leaders "Black Death" and Tanja Nijmeijer in the Colombian mountains, the Russian Nightwolf "Chirurg" in Crimea, Chechen President Ramzan Kadyrov in Grozny, and Liberia's putschist Prince Johnson in Monrovia. Kolja narrowly missed the bombing of Donbas rebel leader Alexander Sakharchenko in the Separatist CafĂš Donezk, and he won a staredown against US "Defence Secretary" Donald Rumsfeld in an elevator in Batumi.
He is often known by his nickname Dr. Dangerzone and is the Ambassador of Germany to the Worldâs youngest country: Liberland, and he also happens to be a very dear friend of mine, so Iâm really excited to have him on our show!Â
A GLIMPSE INTO MY CONVERSATION WITH KOLJA
What an intense conversation with Kolja on the most dangerous cities and countries you can travel to and what can happen at any moment while you are there.
What life is like when you have visited every UN country in the world, especially war zonesâŠÂ
We talk about THE most dangerous capital in the world and what the government does and doesnât do to protect its citizens.
On the other hand, we talk about Russia and the freedom from government and what itâs like in Siberia. Such dichotomy.
I really wanted to understand what is it about these dangerous countries or the war zone that attracted Kolja to want to visit and see them, and why he continues to visit them again and again.
Listen in as Kolja describes war zones and crisis areas in Belfast, Northern Ireland⊠what it felt like and the process he undertook to be able to process what was happening⊠countries like Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi and the Congo⊠each one more dangerous than the other
How hiring a local taxi driver in these horrific war zone areas who can explain why after so many years these things are still happening, can impact who you are as a person and why itâs so important to understand the truth.
Find out which city and country are Koljaâs most favourite of all the countries he has visited in his lifetime. I bet youâll never guess.
How the information we get on television or in our mainstream media is the direct opposite of the reality on the ground, as we discuss several different countries and what life is actually like living there.
Extreme Traveller Congress⊠from billionaire to backpacker, how 150 participants come together, no matter what theyâve done in the past, and why it just doesnât matter, all for the love of travel and adventure.
We discuss in detail what life is like for Kolja now, living in Monaco, after spending years travelling⊠is this still a passion for him?
I wanted to understand what Kolja has learned from visiting all of these different types of war zone countries and meeting the players that are involved? What have been his insights?
If you have an extra $250,000 sitting around and want to do something so radical that almost no one else on earth has done or even heard about, then listen as Kolja pitches you on his next adventure of 2023.

Zero power bill to run your home or your businessâŠimagineâŠwondering how that works? We talk about creating that for your home.
We talk about the financial benefits of wind power, solar power, recycling, greywaterâŠthings vital for the future.Â
If you get separated from the grid or if thereâs a problem with a hurricane or other type of natural disaster, are you ready? Will you be able to live? Big questions we answer here.
Patrick explains F I R S TâŠyou will want to know and understand the rationale behind this amazing concept of living.
I wanted to know how a community will grow and be able to sustain itself, what the technology will be, the responsibilities, and how these types of things will be built. Patrick goes hog wild on the details!
What happens to the greywater and the black water in this new community? Should we all be buying new eco-friendly soaps⊠an interesting question.
How living in a country that grows fresh vegetables and fruits year-round is so different from countries in the Northern Climates, like Canada or Norway. If you think you can come down to countries like Panama or Nicaragua and use the same systemsâŠthink again!
How vitally important it is to understand the culture, the history, the language, the food, and making friends with the local people and incorporating yourself into the new country you will now call home.

Think youâll be bored living in a community with 300 homes in the middle of the mountains with a view of the ocean? Wondering what youâll do every day? You will not believe what Patrick and his team have built in other countries, it will blow your mind! Â
Patrick explains an NFT and how it pertains to buying real estate. The benefits of using an NFT and how heâs taken a messy concept and made it really really easy. Youâll want to buy homes this way for the rest of your life.Â
Financially sustainable, living tax-free, growing your own food, producing your own energy and spending time with like-minded peopleâŠit doesnât get much better than that.Â

Today on the Expat Money Show I am going to replay an interview I did with my friend Tom Bodrovics from Palisades Gold Radio that went live a couple of weeks ago. I really enjoyed doing this interview and personally, I think I did an awesome job; however, not everyone in Tom's audience thought so. I got comments from people who really don't understand what we're talking about on this program or what we stand for Expat Money. But, I would say the majority of the comments were really good and I ended up getting some fantastic clients out of it and was able to help, what I would think, a lot of people. So I want to replay the interview for you and hopefully help you to secure your own freedoms offshore.
IN TODAYâS EPISODE TOM AND I DISCUSSâŠ
If youâre still unsure of how and where my extensive experience comes from, and why I can do what I do day in and day out, youâll get a ton of value from this interview I did with Tom.Â

Listen as we discuss the freest countries in the world, thenâŠand now.Â

CONCLUSION I enjoyed my conversation with Tom and I think you will too. Even though you have probably listened to many many of my podcast episodes, youâll find that with each episode we talk about something a little different. And with Tom, he asked me questions that you may not have heard in the past.
I know youâll love this episode, take an hour, do what you do when you listen and then let me know what you thought.
Today on the Expat Money Show I am going to replay a really special webinar I did last week with my business partner and friend, Michael Strong, discussing why mainstream education is destroying your children and how you can easily prevent this.Â
This is not a new phenomenon and I donât see it getting any better in the near future. With such a bleak outlook for our education system, itâs time parents took control of the situation to provide the very best education available today.
IN TODAYâS EPISODE WE DISCUSSâŠ
How problems with todayâs brick and mortar schools, like masking, bullying and the woke culture are defeating the true nature of our children and what you can do to eliminate this kind of behaviour.
Listen as Michael explains ideas of entrepreneurship and economic freedom and how your children can become great believers in peace and prosperity.
Why a statement like âcapitalism makes the rich richer and the poor poorerâ is so absurd. Learn what capitalism really is, and why it's so important for our childrenâs future.
Michael and I discuss what teaching real history looks like, not what government-run schools demand their students to learn. Itâs very sad.
How censorship is destroying your child, and if nothing is done to correct this, why they will likely never recover from it.
Is your child learning real skills that will help her to be the best adult she can be? Listen to why this is more important now than ever before.
What Socratic is, why itâs vitally important for your childrenâs education, and most importantly, why our school is based on this premise.
Catastrophic statistics for school-aged adolescents in the United States are off the charts. You will not believe these numbers, they are crazy!Â

CONCLUSION I absolutely love interacting with Michael on what he knows best, and thatâs education. After 30+ years in the education field and a firm background in free-market enterprise, he knows and understands how to help children grow into healthy, happy, productive adults.
If you have school-aged children, know parents that are not happy with their current education system or are grandparents with those same thoughts, please contact me or Michael today. The longer your child is part of government-run schools, the more harm is done.

Moldova, Cyprus, MM2H, Portugal, Montenegro, Vanuatu, Panama, all of these things have changed, and just in the past year. They usually get worse, or more expensive, rarely do we see changes that are for the better.

Today, on the Expat Money Show, Iâm going to be discussing expat life in Aruba. I took a week in early January to visit the country to really understand the immigration process, what taxes were like for individuals and businesses, and what the cost of living and lifestyle could offer an expat interested in living there.

Great tips on the real estate market in Aruba. What the cost of buying a 3 bedroom 2.5 bath villa in a private community looks like and what it could cost you to live in Aruba.
The not-so-simple steps to understanding land tax issues if you chose to live in Aruba. I break it down so that you at least will have an idea of what youâre getting yourself into when making Aruba your permanent home.
What you can expect to pay in income tax if you become a permanent tax resident, and how you can avoid the âotherâ taxes!
Ins and outs of a Timeshare. Is it a good idea or should you steer clear of them? Is Aruba different when it comes to timeshares? Listen in to my experience sitting down for 2 hours with a salesman that at the end we wanted to vomit blood!
Why it's vitally important to understand what the free trade zone is all about and how it can help your business grow exponentially.
Best strategies for living and working in Aruba. If this is your country of choice, you will not want to miss this episode!

Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is Michael Wedaa, who has travelled to more than 100 countries on 6 continents. His love of travel started in his youth when he visited many of the great national parks in the U.S. He then took his first major international trips to Europe, South America, and Asia in 2011. From there, he caught the travel bug and began taking 4 international trips per year. In 2020 he became the host of a travel TV show called The Layover Experience. Â
HERE IS A SNEAK PEEK OF WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODEâŠ
Imagine visiting 100 countries! What does that take to accomplish? Michael shares with us what heâs done in his life over the last 10 years to make this happen in his lifeâŠand how you can too!
What does it take for the love of travel to rule your life! I chat with Michael about how travel changed my life and the important lessons Iâve learned from the people Iâve met along the way.
I bet youâre thinkingâŠitâs so easy to go to London, Paris and RomeâŠbut what about Iran, Egypt or Tanzania? Listen to how Michael visited those countries and his wild experiences.
Michael and I share some great stories about the countries weâve visited that people have been really afraid to travel to.Â
Have you imagined yourself as a writer? Youâve got some amazing plans and yet donât know what the next steps are. Here Michael tells us how he started and finished writing his first book and I think youâll really like this if youâre a budding author.
I loved chatting with Michael about countries we still donât know how to spell, or even pronounce, yet canât wait to visit. Places most people are too scared to go to. Here are some really awesome tips!
Michael shares some hilarious stories of his travels and the trouble you can get into when things happen that are out of your control.Â
Michaels YouTube Show is called âLayover Guruâ. In today's episode, Michael and I talk about how you can utilize your time on a layover of letâs say 6 - 24 hours. Are you like most people and just sit in the airport? Ya, I get that. But listen to thisâŠMichael uses that time to see a new city or a new country that he may never get a chance to visit again. He shares his tips and tricks for everyone to enjoy.
Is Covid still scaring you? Are you waiting for things to go back to normal? Michael talks about all of the travelling heâs done in the past 2 years and how you can make it a reality.

CONCLUSION: Iâve never been the sort of guy that loved sitting in an airport, but I always just did it, no matter how long the wait was. I try to book the least amount of time between flights I can, but if I had much of a wait I would sit in the business class lounge and work.Â
But I gotta say, this conversation with Michael Wedaa has really changed my mind. I think maybe using his tips and tricks for my next flight will add to my experience huge! Â
Make sure you buy his book, there is an absolute ton of information for the novice and the seasoned traveller!
Iâm excited to see what trouble I can get into in a new city or country!
Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is my very good friend Marc Clair, the co-founder, host and producer of the âLions of Libertyâ podcast. Over the last eight years, Lions of Liberty has become a leading platform for libertarian voices in the alternative media.Â
I have had the pleasure of joining him on his podcast multiple times and have even been able to assist him in his own expat journey overseas.
On today's podcast, Marc and I discuss his expat journey leaving Los Angeles where he had lived for more than a decade to now living in Mexico City. We discuss the struggles and craziness of dealing with the Mexican government to get residency and in the USA to get a green card for his wife and stepson.
What a journey Marc has had these past few years, here are some of the things we talk aboutâŠÂ
First off, what is a libertarian? What does it mean to be a libertarian? Do we all think the same, do we have the same ideasâŠdo we wave around a libertarian flag?
How neither Marc nor I became overnight libertarians. It became our ideals, our way of life and what brought us to this point in our lives. I think you will love this conversation.
Expat living is a vehicle towards freedom and liberty. Are you leaning towards leaving your home country? Wondering what all the hype is about. Marc and I discuss the real struggles of leaving your home and all the things you take for granted.Â
We talk about the little things that drive us crazy about living in Panama and Mexico and the old adage of 'mañana'. If youâre American or Canadian, youâll feel our pain.Â
Marc talks about the nightmare of dealing with immigration in the USA and the time it has taken to complete the paperwork.
And in the end, has it been worth it? All these extra steps, and time spentâŠhas it been worth it? Being an expat, leaving your family behind? Going for a green card? Immigration?
I talk a lot about being a libertarian and a lot of my guests are libertarians. If you are interested in the philosophy and really resonate with what we talk about, then this episode will speak to you.

Are you thinking that itâs impossible to learn a new language, that you donât have what it takes? Anthony Metivier was able to learn German fluently in 1 year. Listen to his strategies and tools and how he accomplished this task to be able to do a presentation in German at the University.

Are you thinking that your brain could really use some help? Anthony Metivier discusses the benefits of learning a language on the brain and preventing Alzheimer's.

Are you thinking that children learn languages differently than adults? Well, John Fotheringham and I discuss what methods you can use that work with your children so they can learn quickly and to make sure they have fun!
Can learning a new language bring you joy? I ask Kris Broholm. We talk about the fun we have from learning languages, and how as a polyglot what you take out of the language.
Imagine youâre living in a country where you donât speak the language and youâre a single guyâŠKevin Koskella discusses meeting a woman and not knowing Portuguese, his story is hilarious!
I asked Kris Broholm what the most difficult language for him to learn was? As a polyglot, you wouldnât think he would have any problems, but one, in particular, was really hard for him. I bet you canât guess what language heâs talking about. Â

Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is Nick Donnelly, a web developer working on a Solana NFT crypto startup. He has been a digital nomad for 20 years since a very random trip to China in 2001 and his first backpacking trip to Berlin and Prague shortly after.
He is currently in Bansko, Bulgaria â Europeâs digital nomad hub, and maintains a flat in Prague where he is based much of the year. He has lived in Saigon and London and travels (while working) several months a year and has spent many years slow-travelling, visiting 73 countries so far.
HERE IS A SNEAK PEEK OF WHAT WE DISCUSSED...
Itâs maybe not for everyone, but slow travel compared to fast travel, whatâs best for you? Make sure you truly understand what makes you happy!
3 keys that people just donât understand about having a happy life. Can this possibly be your life?
Have you ever considered âhow do you become a world traveller?â This episode helps to break down some really great aspects that you probably have never thought about.Â
Are you currently living a life trying to keep up with the Joneses? Do you have 2 luxury cars and a big old house? If you looked back on your life, is that what makes you happy? If not, listen in to hear Nick discuss strategies to get yourself out of that rut.Â
Nick & I talk about some awesome countries that really help to develop their digital nomad communities. Wondering where they are? Could you spend several months a year in any of these amazing countries?
And the question that comes up often, the language of the locals. Can you get by with English? Youâll be pleasantly surprised by the answer.
A big discussion on living in a former Communist country, have things changed? What does Communism do to the spirit of the people?
What life is like in some of the countries around the globe, governments being absolutely abusiveâŠmost wonât surprise you.
What the heck is FIRE? And why is it possibly the most important thing to understand for your retirement!
Is FIRE for you? Listen in as Nick talks about how it can work for you!

HOW TO REACH NICK DONNELLY https://digitalnomadonfire.com/ (Digital Nomads On Fire)
CONCLUSION: I learned a lot of things myself in this episode talking with Nick. He made me rethink some of my preconceived notions about what FIRE is and how it can affect your life, not only now but for the rest of your life.Â
No matter where you are in life, whether you are just starting out or have hit the mid-way point in your life, itâs never too late to learn what FIRE is and how to incorporate it into your everyday life.
Todayâs guest on the Expat Money Show is Alex Bales, a freelance digital marketer who made the transition to digital nomad life on January 1, 2020. Well, we all know what happened next. Despite the COVID pandemic and resulting lockdowns, he has lived the greater part of two years out of a suitcase, off the beaten path and traversing the Middle East, Balkans, and the Caucasus, visiting 80+ cities and 16 countries (17 if you count the unrecognized breakaway state of Transnistria).
Here is a sneak peek of what we discussed...
Do you find yourself disillusioned with your home country? Maybe the USA or Canada? Alex talks about his stay in Iran and the eye-opening experience he had there.
Do you think you know and understand the world from your geography and history classes in high school? Ya, me too...except what we were taught way back then is not reality as Mikkel and Alex tell us.
Maybe you havenât been able to travel as of yet, after Covid hit the world, everyone just stopped vacationing. Alex didnât! Listen in as he talks as a new traveller, having little to no experience and where he went and what he saw...you will be amazed!
Imagine as a young adult, going to your family and telling them youâre going to Iran on vacation...can you imagine what your parents are going to say! Listen in to some words of advice!
Mikkel and Alex talk about the forbidden land of Saudi Arabia. What itâs like? Why would you want to go there?, what all the fascination about the country is...and why it is #1 on Mikkelâs bucket list!
Listen in to hear Mikkel talk about which countries are on the top of his bucket list, other than Saudi Arabia. Maybe one of them is on your list too!
Imagine yourself, arriving in Tbilisi, Georgia...just as the pandemic was starting in March 2020. What was life like arriving in a foreign country, where you donât speak the language, with English not widely spoken, jumping into uncertain waters, and the fear of Covid being almost unspeakable!Â
Have you ever wondered how safe using a mask being outside is, or inside for that matter? Alex has this horrible accident that he tells us about, not speaking the language and having to rely on Google translate...one more reason to dislike the use of masks!
If youâve wondered what country had the most locked-down mandates in The Balkans and what countries were the freest, youâll really enjoy this episode.

CONCLUSION: Iâm so happy to hear about Alex and his travels over the past 2 years. He has travelled to a bunch of countries that are on the top of my travel list I want to go to. Saudi, Georgia, Uzbekistan, Pakistan and more. Iâm going to have to start planning for 2022!!
This was a fun episode with Alex, I know youâll really enjoy it too!
Today on the Expat Money Show weâre going to do something a little different. Recently I had the pleasure of travelling to Medellin, Colombia with my family and we met up with my friend Jason and his wife Sophie and recorded a YouTube video about medical tourism, specifically medical tourism in Medellin.
Jason's company is awesome. They really do a fantastic job of helping Americans and Canadians, but also Europeans and really, people from anywhere in the world who come to Colombia to get medical tourism done.
I loved the video so much that I thought we would turn it into a podcast episode because there is just so much information to be heard.
Here is a sneak peek of what we discussed...
Are you wondering what medical tourism is? What does it entail? Sounds interesting but whatâs in it for me?
Jason shares with us the most important issues of not staying in North America and waiting for an important procedure to happen, or not happen!
But Jason, what about the medical facilities? The Doctors? Are they trained properly and are they as trustworthy as the Doctors we have in Canada or the States?
You may be wondering about the cost, donât I have to be rich and famous to have medical procedures done while on vacation?
Donât be caught waiting and waiting for a procedure in Canada when you can hop on a direct flight to Colombia. You will be surprised at how quickly it can be done!
Mikkel and Jason discuss the numerous procedures that are done in Medellin and the response time of the surgeons. It will blow your mind!
Have you heard a lot of people talking about Stem cells? What is this and if I came to Colombia can you do this type of procedure?
Okay, but I donât speak Spanish and Colombia is a Spanish-speaking country...what do I do?
If you are in need of a medical procedure, whether itâs for your health or to fix something youâre not happy with, listen to this episode. You will be amazed and thrilled!

What you feel when you step inside a country like Uganda, how it changes your life and gets in your heart
You canât even imagine what the slums in Uganda are like, the smell, the waste, the garbage yet Jennings has been 13 times to help make a difference for all that live there.
Listen to the story of a grandmother who is raising 6 grandchildren from 2 of her children who have died of AIDS...unfathomable.
Who really benefits from the normal average non-profit? Jennings describes in detail how different their organization is and how the people she helps learn new skills to take out to the world and make a difference.
What happens when you work with a nation that is mostly illiterate? Or that 65% of the population is under 18? What is in store for Ugandans going forward?
Hereâs how you can really truly make a difference in the lives of others that donât have access to clean water, clothes or food every day; imagine only eating every other day?Â

With 10Eighteen you can see where all of the money goes when you donate. There are no big salaries, private jets to Uganda or big marketing budget. All monies and I mean all monies are sent directly to Uganda to buy food, used in the halfway home for teenage moms, for clean water and so much more. I donated and was able to choose my money to go to teaching entrepreneurial skills for life, so the people there can help themselves.Â

China, the start of it all. How are they doing? what did they do differently than the rest of the world How states allowed diseased people into Long Term Care facilities because 'they needed the beds' in hospitals and they saved those beds for new cases of Covid. Why anyone would pursue such terrible policies Schools, concerts, Spring break...should they have been shut down? Our natural immune system Has the population been traumatized? What countries are open for visitors right now? and so much more!

http://www.gscm.co/ (GSCM) maintains a focus but is not limited to, identifying opportunities among ignored and obscure securities which tend to be either undiscovered or misunderstood by the wider market. They focus on this area due to the high barriers to entry and low competition market environment leading to more inefficiently priced securities.

Todayâs guests on The Expat Money Show are Jim & Judy Brown, who own and operate a charter yacht called Dauntless. Whether itâs a week of R&R exploring idyllic locations, or an adventure-filled experience learning the ropes of a liveaboard yacht, they make sure each and every guest will have simply the best vacation ever.Â
He⊠is a Veteran Coast Guard Ocean Rescuer and a licensed U.S. coast guard captain with 8 years of deep ocean experience. She⊠is the first mate and chef aboard Dauntless and the Italian in her loves to create mouth-watering meals for their guests onboard. After 4 years of cruising the Caribbean, they decided that a change of scenery was in order, so they will ship their yacht across the Atlantic Ocean and operate out of Italy and Croatia this summer and next. Together they have sailed over 8000 nautical miles and hosted close to 30 couples and families aboard their yacht.
This episode is the 3rd in a 3 part mini-series for the expat that wants to leave their home country but doesnât want to move to another country, instead sailing around the globe and visiting countries that have beautiful scenery, amazing food and warm sunny days might be your best option.
If you havenât listened to Part 1, itâs with https://expatmoneyshow.com/captivate-podcast/nick-terysa/ (Nick Fabbri & Terysa Vanderloo) from Sailing Ruby Rose, expats from the UK who talk to us about mindset, getting ready to purchase a boat, what to look for, and how much a new boat might cost you.
Part 2 is How To Fund Your Sailing Adventure Around The World with https://expatmoneyshow.com/episodes/brady-trautman/ (Brady Trautman) on SV Delos.
HEREâS WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN DETAIL IN THIS INTERVIEW:
Jim had a great love affair with the water since he was a teenager, so it wasnât a far fetch for them to sell everything and buy a yacht. This is really a great story for those that have planned for retirement and wondering what else is there!
Judy loves to entertain. She learned to cook 20 years ago and day by day just fell in love with the idea of cooking for others. Nowadays, she just waits for the âWOWââŠthatâs what makes her day.
Together, they have a beautiful yacht called âDauntlessâ and they charter couples around the globe. How have they done that so far? What do they enjoy most about sailing the Caribbean and visiting beautiful dive sites, eating local fresh organic foods? Most importantly, what do their guests think?
How has Covid affected their business? have they been able to sail the beautiful blue skies?
Where is their boat today? and where will it be later this year?
Jim and Judy share what they want for their new adventures in the Mediterranean. What countries they have planned for their guests, what sightseeing options are available?
We talk a lot about their yacht Dauntless. What does she look like? How many people can she sleep? How big is she?
We then spent some time on how they pick their routes? do they always stay the same course or is it different every time? and why?
Not surprisingly, different countries have different rules for immigration, really no different than when you come by car or by air. You have to follow the rules and Jim and Judy know what is required at each port.
And so much more!

He is an entrepreneur, filmmaker, and the co-founder of the YouTube channel https://bowtie.mailbutler.io/tracking/hit/d900bf82-17a1-47d8-983e-0efb4d1f1f79/942b5b48-57a1-43f8-aec6-ddb136d9d4f5 (SV Delos). Originally from Florida, he studied environmental engineering before making the transition to full time sailing. His skills in marketing, video editing and qualifications as a Divemaster, Dive Instructor and Rescue Diver have played a huge part in keeping Delos in the top echelon of YouTube sailing channels, all the while inspiring others to follow their dreams.Â
This episode is the 2nd in a 3 part mini-series for the expat that wants to leave their home country but doesn't want to move to another country. Sailing around the globe and visiting countries that have beautiful scenery, amazing food and warm sunny days might be your best option.
If you haven't watched Part 1, it's with https://expatmoneyshow.com/captivate-podcast/nick-terysa/ (Nick Fabbri & Terysa Vanderloo from )Sailing Ruby Rose, expats from the UK who talk to us about mindset, getting ready to purchase a boat, what to look for, and how much a new boat might cost you.
Part 3 will be with Jim & Judy Brown from http://www.saildauntless.com (Dauntless) on how to plan a route and where to go. Great places that have easy access to land with plenty to see and do once you drop anchor.
HEREâS WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN DETAIL IN THIS INTERVIEW:
If your family and friends arenât sailors, where does the interest come from? How do you end up sailing around the globe in your early twenties?
Brady Trautman talks to us about his first journey. Where they started and the islands they reached along the way. The beauty of the open water and sunshine day in and day out.
Co-founder of the number two sailing YouTube channel in the world https://bowtie.mailbutler.io/tracking/hit/d900bf82-17a1-47d8-983e-0efb4d1f1f79/942b5b48-57a1-43f8-aec6-ddb136d9d4f5 (SV Delos)Â and how they have documented their sailing experiences around the world.
The question is âhow do you possibly fund a lifestyle where you are months upon months on the open seas? If you had any money to start, how long does it take to go through it?â
Living and working in New Zealand and Australia, and how that happened.
Mikkel & Brady talk a lot about diving...they both have a huge passion for scuba diving and some of the crazy things they have done while on a dive.Â
What one thing, more than anything else, is important if you want to help crew a boat that will be a sea for many months. Itâs probably not what you think?
After living for years in the South Pacific and the Caribbean where it is warm and hot every single day, they head up to Norway with their final destination of 80 degrees North, where it is cold and snowy, every single day.
How they documented and filmed a 4 part mini-series called https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Bsck_nbiXI (80NorthSeries.com) and detailed the expedition of 8 sailors and filmmakers in the Arctic Circle. On this journey, the crew discover the very real effects of climate change and plastic pollution, witness some of the Arctics' rarest wildlife and learn the true power of Mother Nature.Â
They self-published using a pay what's fair model! Brilliant!
And what are Brady and his partner Alex doing now?
They recently created the Cruiser Academy, teaching others how they too can quit the rat race and find their true passion on the ocean. The Cruiser Academy provides those with a thirst for adventure, the opportunity to learn how to sail, film and create a living on the water. With thousands of people turning to digital nomadism, this academy will be the inspiration many need to create a more meaningful life in 2021.

Todayâs guests on the Expat Money Show are Nick Fabbri & Terysa Vanderloo, expats from the UK, who have a truly amazing story that started way back in 2009. They live a life most only dream of. They sail around the world documenting as they go for all to see. In May 2015, they set off on their sailing adventure and in 2016 they created their YouTube channel âhttps://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Sailing+Ruby+Rose (Sailing Ruby Rose)â. Imagine this is your life for a year: Starting in Charleston, South Carolina, sailing down the USA East Coast, across the Gulf Stream to the Bahamas, and then up to Bermuda. Crossing the Atlantic Ocean and making landfall in the Azores, before finally crossing to mainland Portugal, and then making your way into the Mediterranean Sea. Wow, sounds absolutely perfect. This episode is the 1st in a 3 part mini-series for the expat that wants to leave their home country but doesn't want to move to another country. Sailing around the globe and visiting countries that have beautiful scenery, amazing food and warm sunny days might be your best option. Part 2 will be with Brady Trautman from https://www.youtube.com/svdelos (SV Delo)s on How to Fund sailing. You may be thinking what a great idea, sail around the globe, but I still need to work. Part 3 will be with Jim & Judy Brown from http://www.saildauntless.com (Sail Dauntless) on how to plan a route and where to go. Great places that have easy access to land with plenty to see and do once you drop anchor. In today's episode with Nick & Terysa, we talk about mindset, getting ready to purchase a boat, what to look for, and how much a new boat might cost you. Â HEREâS WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN DETAIL IN THIS INTERVIEW:How did Nick and Terysa meet? What brought them together. Who was the sailor, Nick or Terysa? And how did the one convince the other that sailing around the world would be a great idea? If someone was interested in getting into sailing, what would they need to do? If youâve never sailed, Nick and Terysa explain what they believe is best for you. Plus, if youâve never sailed, how big of a boat would you buy? Is the old analogy, 'go big or go home' appropriate? Can you just buy a new boat and start sailing? Or should you start slow and ease into it? How about classes? Nick and Terysa talk about their 6-month adventure from the UK to the Canary Islands. Things that went wrong, and things that were perfect. They also discuss other sailors who were also en route to the Canary Islands and how they did things totally differently. We discuss their first boat purchase, how long they had it and why it was time to upgrade. Similarly, having their 2nd boat for 6 years, and why they chose to sell and buy a brand new Catamaran. The benefits of a Catamaran opposed to other types of boats. The 3 most important items to look for when searching out and buying a new boat. What 4 obstacles must be addressed in order to move forward with buying a new boat. What life looked like through this Coronavirus pandemic and how 2021 will fare for sailors around the globe. We talk about their new Catamaran that they will take possession of by the end of 2021 and whatâs in store for her.

Todayâs guests on the Expat Money Show are Jessica & Will Sueiro. Since 2014 they have been travelling the world - one hometown at a time. Together with their free-spirited children, Avalon and Largo, the family have visited 70 countries in their quest to provide a global education for their children, while building a deeper bond as a family. Over the past six years, these âhttps://www.youtube.com/worldtowning (WorldTowners)' have found themselves hiking 580 miles along the Camino Trail in Spain, motorhoming through every country in Europe, and, most recently, buying a sailboat in France to sail the world's oceans. The Sueiro family are currently located in the Mediterranean and will head west wherever the wind takes them, with the goal of circumnavigating the globe. Upbeat and ready for adventure, Jessica is a voracious dreamer and glass-is-half-full type of gal â even when the glass is shattered into 1,000 pieces and her super glue is dried up. WorldTowning is a company committed to helping individuals broaden their global experiences through concentrated and immersive exposures to the worldâs cultures. Through coaching, group expeditions and the sharing of their travels on the family http://www.youtube.com/worldtowning (YouTube channel), the Sueiroâs have documented their entire journey, to show the magic (and realities) of full-time travel. Their mission is to help others understand that this lifestyle is a possibility, to all who dare to dream, just ask them how!  HEREâS WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN DETAIL IN THIS INTERVIEW:It took them 7 years from the start of the idea of becoming full-time travellers to actually being on the road. We talk a lot about what schools look like in other countries. How the children handled not being able to speak the native language and being on the playground and being able to fit in. Living full time in Costa Rica, Ecuador and in France. What did that look like? Was it easy to make friends? Did you love it or hate it? Avalon asking to be homeschooled and how well she is doing today. As a 16-year-old she has 2 online businesses. Find out what they are and how they came to be. The Sueiros' have been travelling non-stop for 6 years. What are the kids like today? are they empathetic? kind, funny? what does moving from country to country do to a child? Will & Jess talk about how they broke into the community! you won't believe it! Mikkel & Jess talk about doing the 'hard things' in life. Then what did they do?........ They rented a 21 1/2' motor home. Small yes..cozy, for sure. They travelled all through Europe, crazy to hear these stories. What are they doing today? and if you've wanted to travel, leave your home country and see the world, this episode is a must for you. You'll love it! After four months locked down on the dock in France, they finally get to take their sailing lessons. They will set sail for Greece (from France) on March 1st.
Because most countries are still closed for tourism, and in some cases, citizens are unable to leave, as in France, their business, called 'Worldtowning' is launching their new adventures and trips for late 2021 and all of 2022 next month! Coronavirus has been so hard on world travellers, I know, we've not been able to leave Panama either. Their group trips are very different from other companies because every trip is led by their family of four.

This time around Brian asks the questions and I get to answer them. Have you wondered what I do, day to day in my position as Director with https://www.escapeartist.com/ (Escape Artist.com)?

A young 22-year-old comes to him for advice, and they can plan out his/her future to ensure they take all the right steps so when retirement is around the corner, they are prepared. And these pre-high net worth individuals come to him because their parents came to him first. The parents made sure their retirement was in place and they were able to say to their children, see, we listened to the advice given to us by Tariq, we believe you should do the same. Wow, I just love it!

I am super excited about today's conversation! John and I have had some fantastic conversations over the past few months and I can't wait to see what Parler is capable of doing over the next few years. Late last month I had the pleasure of being interviewed on John's podcast, here is the link on https://www.youtube.com/embed/xHy3VIR5Kw4 (YouTube). What a blast that was.
Here's what We Discussed In Detail In This Interview:
Why would you want to take on the giants in social media? what a huge undertaking!
Did you think, "we can do it better than FB and Twitter"?
How much work was involved in building a platform to take on the giants

A paradigm shift for people
What does 'Free Speech' actually mean? and
Why Free Speech and why is it so important
Parler platform is neutral and John is neutral
Parler has Accounts, not Users
Getting verified and how it works
Scammers and Bots
What truly excites me is the future of Parler. What can we expect from John and his team over the next few years?

Today's interview was really fun to record. This is a first for us and weâre learning the ropes for audio and video. Instead of my guest being in another country or city, Luigi came to my office here in downtown Panama and we recorded live video and then made an audio recording for our podcast. You will notice the sound is a little different, but the quality of the guest is outstanding. Luigi is so knowledgeable regarding offshore banking that youâll truly want to listen to the entire episode.

Why donât people use their local bank?
Reasons why offshore banks would help

Offshore banking has different price points than domestic banks
Offshore costs more
International business & Asset protection and diversification
Take your jurisdiction seriously, they are not all the same

FINAL THOUGHTS Great conversation with my good friend Luigi Wewege. As I mentioned at the beginning of the interview, we met almost 3 years ago in Dubai and became fast friends.

Today's guest on the Expat Money Show is Chris Temple, who is in his fifth decade in the financial world and is an âoutlierâ of sorts. He is editor/publisher of the National Investor, a twice-monthly publication that distinguishes the knowledge he provides from the oceans of mere information that people typically have to wade through.
Not sure how you can pack more information into an hour's podcast, but Mikkel Thorup and Chris Temple did their best! For those of you interested in politics, past and present, and wondering what will happen if either the Republicans or Democrats get in, then you will want to listen today. Chris also shares some great stock tips....great, great episode!

FINAL THOUGHTS What a fast packed hour with Chris Temple. We talk about the predictions for the upcoming US elections.

Over the past 3 years of interviewing guests, weâve usually come at it from the ownership side, or at least from a managerial side of a business. We talk about what our guest does for a living or how they left the crazy lifestyle of Corporate America and travelled as an expat and became an entrepreneur.
Today, weâre going to change that up a bit and talk about a business that I think is amazing, Love Home Swap. Not from someone that has ownership in it, but has used it extensively. My guest today on The Expat Money Show did in fact leave the craziness of a 9-5 job, with his wife and family in tow and began travelling the world, homeschooling their children and becoming digital nomads.
He has been travelling the world non-stop for over 3 years and has completed over 60 home swaps in over 16 countries across 4 continents using this system. After chatting with him on the phone a few weeks ago about his travels and reading his book, âChoose Lifeâ, I knew that I wanted you, my listeners, to hear his story too.
TOPICS DISCUSSED IN DETAIL IN THIS INTERVIEW:
Becoming part of a community
4 Hour Work Week by Tim Ferris
Fear Setting Exercise
Love Home Swap and how it works
Measuring Success
Sir Ken Robinson
Selling everything and moving to Thailand
Home sitting/Pet sitting
Digital Nomad
Dual Citizenship

Over the past 35 years, John has figured out what to do and what not to do. If you see real estate in your future, please make sure you set aside an hour and listen to this great episode.
On today's episode of The Expat Money Show, our next guest has been a full-time digital nomad and expat for the past 15 years, travelling throughout more than 60 countries and has helped thousands of people move, retire, or work abroad.
At an early age, her mission was to discover an alternative to the typical âAmerican Dreamâ 9 to 5 way of life. She always struggled with the simple question: âWhat do you want to be when you grow up?â and decided that one day she would invent her own job and that she did. Today, her goal is to help others become location independent and stay that way, for as long as their heart desires.
Today, Kristin Wilson is living full-time in her home state of Florida and absolutely loving it. Costa Rica was home for 8 years and Nicaragua for 1 year. Travelling for long periods of time has become the norm for Kristin and in this interview, she walks us through all of the ups and downs of becoming a digital nomad and why choosing this path can be so empowering.

Mikkel Thorup and Kristin Wilson talk in-depth about their travels, the countries they have been to and lived in.Â
A question on most people's minds is always: how do I make friends? Will I travel forever without sharing my experiences? What is the best way to meet people? Such great questions and all answered in this episode.
Another really big question is: Where is the best hotspot for digital nomads to go and hang out with other digital nomads. Kristin tells us about 6-7 countries and specific cities that really attract like-minded people, so interesting.
Lastly, Kristin Wilson walks us through the Visa process for entering and staying in countries around the world as a digital nomad. Â

FINAL THOUGHTS What a fun episode this was to do with Kristin. I had the privilege of being a guest on her podcast...
Today's guest on the Expat Money Show has long been considered one of America's foremost political operatives. He has worked on numerous major election campaigns, from the congressional to the presidential levels, and he currently serves as a strategic advisor to some of Washington's top political organizations and media groups. With the US Elections only a few months away, obviously, our discussion will revolve around politics.Â
Carter Clews is THE GODFATHER of an organization called Constitutional Rights Pac and has been in the political arena for more than 50 years, serving and working with many many Presidents. His favourite really nice guy? Ronald Regan. The rest...dirty, really dirty. Dirty as the day is long!
When asked, Is politics dirty? He answers...yes, when itâs done right!!
Today's discussion started with politics, the Coronavirus and getting the hell out of Dodge!Â
Did we say Coronavirus? We meant âfakeâ Coronavirus.Â
Mikkel Thorup and Carter Clews talk about the biggest question on everyoneâs mind: Who do you think will become the President of the United States come November 3rd. Obviously, Carter has no idea, but what he does say is that if Trump gets re-elected life wonât be easy, but if Biden gets in the economy WILL crash and the USA will be much worse off. Biden has already said he would raise taxes...and thatâs just the beginning...
(Side note: for anyone who is curious, Mikkel is a libertarian, not a Conservative)
Then the discussion headed south, really south..to Honduras. Carter and Mikkel talk about life in Central America, Honduras to be specific. Carter has a home there and his wife is Honduran, so he really knows what he is talking about when he discusses what itâs like to live your life in a country that you can do good things for. Like, buy a house, go to restaurants, own a car, have a beer in the local pub... those are all good things.
Topics discussed in detail in this interview:
US 2020 Elections
The turning point of leaving the USA
Capitalism NOT Democracy
Free Market Enterprise
Iran, Iraq and North Korea
Taxes in California
3 most dangerous words in the English language: Health and Safety
How To Reach Carter Clews Carter Clews says you are most welcome to email him, whether itâs good or bad and he promises to answer you: carter.clews@yahoo.com

Final Thoughts Carter Clews and I have become really good friends this past year, so I was thrilled when he agreed to be on my podcast. This was a fun and informative hour-long chat about some really important topics: the US election, the Coronavirus and leaving the USA for good. Enjoy the podcast and Iâll see you next week when my guest will be Kristin Wilson talking about life as a digital nomad.
Todayâs guest is dedicated to the relentless pursuit of freedom. He is the CEO of https://crash.co/ (Crash.co,) the career launch platform, and the founder of https://discoverpraxis.com/ (Praxis), a startup apprenticeship program, both of which are shaking up how young people pursue their dream jobs and develop necessary skills.Â
As we all know, the face of education is finally changing, in a good way, and today weâre going to delve into what the future holds for those looking for alternative ways people can learn, enter the workforce and educate their children.
Here's a great line to live by: 'Don't do stuff you hate'.
How often do you hear people say, I went to college for 4 years then got a job in my field and 6 months later I realize I hated it. Then what do you do? Some decide further education in their field is the answer, for others, a change in their major and another 4 years is ahead of them.
But what if you could skip college altogether, the 4-year grind, the $200,000 debt? and do an apprenticeship that almost (96%) guarantees you a job when you complete the 1-year program? And to boot, love what you do!
Isaac Morehouse has created a system that works. Plain and simple. It's called Praxis.
Topics discussed in detail in this interview:
What the biggest problems with the education system today
The history of how the education system began
What is 'deschooling' and why it's necessary
Human Capital
What's relevant in education
And What is Praxis? This episode will open your eyes and your future to a better, happier world for those that are about to enter the workforce. Also, for those that hate what they are doing today and want something more fulfilling and interesting and fun!
Once Praxis was in full swing, Isaac realized that students trying to enter the workforce didn't really know how to make a good CV. He saw hundreds of students sending out cookie-cutter resumes to find that almost no one ever got a callback. There had to be something better, so he created Crash.co. Listen to find out how Crash works and if it's right for you.
How To Reach Isaac Morehouse http://www.isaacmorehouse.com (www.isaacmorehouse.com)
You will find all the information on both Praxis and https://crash.co/ (Crash.co) and a little bit about the man himself!

Todayâs guest is an award-winning writer, speaker, musician, and entrepreneur from Denver, Colorado. His nonfiction book, The Fun Side of The Wall: Baby Boomer Retirement in Mexico, has been a #1 New Release on Amazon, and portions have been quoted in Forbes and PBS. It details the sociological motivations for some of the most educated and affluent baby boomers in the U.S. migrating to Mexico. (the irony, of course, is the heated debate about keeping Mexicans out of the U.S.)
The book is not a âHow to..â guide for moving to Mexico. Rather, it is a sociological study of the state of retirement in the United States and how those challenges are driving some of the most educated and affluent Baby Boomers into Mexico. The book concludes that it is a longing for authentic community and a break from consumerism that keeps Baby Boomers in Mexico - not just cheaper living.
Today Mikkel Thorup and Travis Luther discuss the question: Why are people leaving the USA?
After years of research, Travis has some really great information, and answers. After visiting different areas that expats live in Mexico, he talked with many of them and seems the answers are different than you might think.
Topics discussed in detail in this interview:
Increase in people retiring abroad
What is an authentic community?
Financial possibilities for foreign governments
The 'why' part, can they make a great life for themselves in Mexico?
Where in Mexico are people migrating to?
Are you like many North Americans? Do you believe that most countries in the world are not as evolved as the USA or Canada? That health care is sub-par? that infrastructure is almost non-existent? Well, then you'll be surprised to hear that this is not how the rest of the world actually is. Sure, there are a few countries that fit this bill, but for many countries that just isn't so, and Mexico is one of them.
For those of you interested in the Why, you'll love this episode. And you'll love Travis Luther's book: https://amzn.to/33qPSbP (The Fun Side of The Wall: Baby Boomer Retirement in Mexico).Â
Travis and Mikkel talk about:
What has travel taught them?
Is it different in Mexico?
Do you have to speak Spanish?
Should you buy real estate in Mexico?
and so much more. You really need to listen in if you are contemplating leaving the USA and don't yet have a country in mind. And if Mexico is on your horizon, then this will help you understand more of the why.

Final Thoughts I really had fun with Travis doing this interview. I just love talking about travelling and he's done a ton himself, along with his family. We both agreed, travelling changes you. I've been to Mexico many times, and I just love it there. The weather is perfect, the food is amazing and Spanish is my second language, so that makes it a trifecta!!
Rich Checkan from ASI is our guest today on The Expat Money Show, and I'm really excited for our listeners to get to know him and understand why buying gold is so important. He is a very good friend of mine and I promise, you are in for a real treat.

Rich is one of the most informed people in the world in the precious metals industry and I often consult with him on what is happening in this space.
In today's episode, Rich Checkan and Mikkel Thorup talk in great detail about Gold. When it all began, what happens during a recession, how often in its history has this happened and how did people respond.
They discuss all of the reasons why it's important to have gold in your portfolio and when the best, AND worst time to buy and to sell.
Important Topics Discussed
Price war with China
Election Year
Insurance, using Gold
Did Gold 'Do its job'?
Fabrication of the metal
How DO you buy gold?
As if these topics aren't enough to fill a fast-paced hour, Mikkel and Rich wrap it up with:
Silver being for the growth
Platinum, palladium and other precious metals
Inflation/Deflation and Stagflation

Final Thoughts Wow is all I can say. This is a really great episode with my friend Rich Checkan. If you don't know a ton about gold, where to buy and when to buy, this is a must-listen-to episode. We talk a lot about gold here on The Expat Money Show and I'm sure we will continue as this is such an important topic, especially with the uncertainty of Covid-19 and the FED debasing currencies around the world at such an alarming rate.
My guest today on the Expat Money Show is Ladislas Maurice from The Wandering Investor. After obtaining his Bachelor of Business Administration from https://www.ubishops.ca/ (Bishopâs University) in Canada and his Masters of International Business & Law from the https://www.sydney.edu.au/ (University of Sydney) in Australia, he spent 7 years in the corporate world. At age 30, after a fantastic experience, great learnings and profitable side investments, he cashed out & wandered off, wanting to deepen his investing skills. He has travelled to almost 100 countries and lived in a dozen countries across Europe, North America, the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and Oceania. He speaks English, French, Russian and German.
If investing outside your home country, preferably somewhere with higher growth potential or yields is what youâre looking for then youâll love this podcast episode.
In this episode, we do something a little different. Instead of compiling a bunch of questions for Ladislas, Mikkel decided to have a friendly chat to talk about Investment opportunities around the world, cool places they have visited and just opened the floor for some really great conversation.
Both Ladislas and Mikkel have visited roughly 100 countries give or take in their lifetime and they wanted to talk about how different countries offer different benefits for investing. And those that both would agree were not wise investments.
Ladislas grew up with expat parents, which obviously swayed his decision to become an expat after working in the corporate world. The really neat thing about Ladislas travels is that he has wandered through countries that most would never even think of going. Some were for business, others purely pleasure.
Listen in while Mikkel and Ladislas talk about:
Uzbekistan
Ivory Coast
Liberia
Ghana
Oman
Georgia
Corruption in Africa
Investing in Africa (no brainer!)
and the theft from the Federal Reserve
What Makes The Wandering Investor So Unique Ladislas then talks about his philosophy for investing and what makes his approach so appealing and down to earth and why he has become so successful at what he does.
Lastly, they discuss Bitcoin. Why Ladislas loves it and the history with Bitcoin for both Mikkel and Ladislas.

Final Thoughts What a great episode for me to record. It was fun, easy-going and lots of great actionable steps for anyone that is thinking about investing outside of their home country. The hour flew by so fast, I wished we had more time. With that being said, I'm pretty sure I'll have Ladislas back on the show before long, as they say, birds of a feather flock together. Enjoy this episode!
Today's guest on the Expat Money Show is Chad Elwartowski, the COO of Ocean Builders. You may not have heard of https://ocean.builders/ (Ocean Builders), but you most likely have heard of SeaSteading and SeaPods.Â
As a first seasteader he brings along his expertise of knowing how life on the open ocean can be and what will be necessary for future customers to feel comfortable in their floating homes.Â
Ocean Builders is located at Linton Bay Marina on the Caribbean Sea in Panama. They are the first company to build a floating home in the open ocean with plans to build many more.
Mikkel and Chad met back in January at a convention and they struck up a conversation regarding SeaSteading and LandSteading. Mikkel's interest was piqued and he really wanted his audience to understand what happened in Thailand and what great things are happening here in Panama.
It's a fascinating story, and we're pretty sure you'll love listening to Chad tell it.
If you're not sure what SeaSteading is, go check out Chad's company https://ocean.builders/ (Ocean.Builders)
One of the really great things about Panama is that the government here is totally behind Ocean Builders concept and are supporting Chad and his company to build these pods both in shallow water and in deep water. Listen in as Chad also explains about LandSteading and what will be happening in Panama inland.
Here are some points discussed:
What will these pods look like
What is the energy source
What about garbage disposal
Internet
How are these units built
Will these units affect the coral in the water
Can you really 3D Print a home
and so much more
If you are interested in owning a pod whether it be on the shores of the Caribbean, out in International waters or in the interior of Panama, then please check out this podcast and reach out to Chad via his Facebook group

Final Thoughts This was a really interesting episode to record with Chad. When we met back in February and we said we would stay in touch, as we both live in Panama. With this lockdown due to the Coronavirus, the topic of Sovereignty kept coming up and SeaSteading is a great way to become Sovereign. As soon as the lockdown has been lifted, I'm going to take my family out to Linton Bay, and spend a few days relaxing on the beach, swimming in the sea and making new friends!
Today's guest on the Expat Money Show is Gill Phelan. Gill has truly led a most interesting life. He grew up in the cold north of the USA, moved to Florida after his divorce and now lives full time in Costa Rica, making Gill a true expat.
He says his book â The Caribbean of Costa Ricaâ Live and Invests on the Last Frontierâ was written to help expats buy international Real Estate, specifically in Costa Rica.
In 2005, with a partner, they started Grand View Estates Costa Rica on the Caribbean Sea which they lovingly call âThe Last Frontier in Costa Ricaâ. They sold out their first three phases and are finishing up the project in Phase 4.
Today we're going to really delve into WHY Costa Rica and WHY the Caribbean Side. What makes this country so amazing, and what you can expect to get when you buy one of Gill's homes.
Gill came to call Costa Rica home on his first visit 20 years ago. He fell in love with the people, the economy and the natural beauty.
Listen in to this amazing conversation Mikkel Thorup and Gill Phelan have. This is what they discuss:
Eco-Friendliness
Scuba Diving
Do Dreams come true
How do you know if you're cut out to live in Costa Rica
Grand View Estates Costa Rica
Is this a good investment if you're a senior
The Monetary Stuff
And so much more...
I know you won't believe it, but Gill tells us that the land, which is anywhere from 1.25 - 1.50 of an acre costs $75,000 USD...no, that can't be true you're probably saying...
And, you can have him build you a custom; a true blue custom; home, for $56/sq. meter...I said you wouldn't believe it. So listen to this podcast to actually hear Gill tell you himself.
You're probably doing the math...1000 sq meters = 3281 sq ft (huge house) for $56,000...plus $75,000 for the land for a total of $131,000 USD. Sounds incredible...this is the real deal folks.
Pictures and More Pictures Open up Facebook and go and look at Gill Phelan's community, called https://www.facebook.com/GrandviewestatesCR/ (Grand View Estates Costa Rica) you won't be disappointed. The best way to contact Gill is through his FB page or if you have specific questions, Gill says you can email him @ info@gillphelan.com. He's happy to answer any questions you might have.

Final Thoughts Over the past several months I've really gotten to know and like Gill Phelan. He is the real deal, as I've already mentioned. When we bring on new partners to work with, itâs my responsibility to do my due diligence to make sure they are who they say they are.
Vincenzo Villamena is the founder and CEO of Online Taxman, a U.S. tax accounting firm that provides hassle-free U.S. tax preparation services online to expats and international entrepreneurs. He also founded Global Expat Advisors, a sister company that specializes in global structuring and offshoring solutions.Â
Prior to starting his own firms, he served as a partner at 4 Corners Inc., where he advised high net worth individuals in private equity investing and tax matters. He also worked in audit, tax and valuation at PricewaterhouseCoopers, involved in Fortune 100 audit engagements and M&A transactions and has a Masters of Accounting and Bachelors of Business Administration.
This episode with Vincenzo is a must listen to, especially if you are an American Expat. All other country expats, you need to listen too.
What's Covered In This Episode You will never look at doing your taxes by yourself again. Vincenzo and Mikkel discuss things like:
Expats living overseas - what they need to do
Why it's important to choose a specialist
Myths that people believe about who needs to file their taxes and how much money they make before filing (you're going to LOVE this one)
Who has to file
Can you skimp on your tax accountant?
What's the downside of not filing properly
Cryptocurrency
Capital gains
and so much more!!
NOTICE TO ALL ENTREPRENEURS!! Do you spend most of your day concentrating on the offence? How can I market more? How can I get more customers? More revenue?
Vincenzo suggests concentrating on the defence.
The discussion then turned to Puerto Rico and the decision was made to do another podcast episode just on Puerto Rico and Act 20/22. We are also going to write some articles about Act 20/22 for American Citizens.

Final Thoughts This was such an amazing interview with Vincenzo. I learned a ton, so much so that as promised above, we're going to get him back on the podcast to just talk about Puerto Rico and Act 20/22. There is so much great information for all expats, regardless of where your country of birth is.

Paul Rosenberg has been deeply engaged with cryptography and cryptography-based projects since the first cypherpunk era. He wrote the first protocols for law in cyberspace, co-authored a foundational paper on private digital economies, and co-founded the Cryptohippie Anonymous VPN. He wrote the highly influential book A https://amzn.to/39fHJ9I (Lodging of Wayfaring Men), as well as https://amzn.to/39g6IcM (Production Versus Plunder).
He has been featured on or at:

And many many more!Â
Paul Rosenberg is known for seeing things decades before others, as an example of this, in his book, A Lodging For Wayfaring Men, he talks about a fictional community of people using a digital currency based on cryptography for commerce.
This was written in the 90s, a long time before the advent of Bitcoin, and because Paul was so involved in the cypherpunk space a lot of people believe Satoshi Nakamoto was actually inspired to create Bitcoin after reading this cult-classic book.
In this episode we dig into a lot, including what is happening in the world right now and what Paul believe will happen next, these are insights from a true thought leader.
Paul Rosenberg originally started his career in the construction, electrical, and business industry. He wrote books, taught courses, namely for Iowa State University, then, the Cryptography movement started.
When Mikkel Thorup and Paul Rosenberg first met back in February of this year at a conference in Mexico, Mikkel knew that the discussion on Cryptography and Cryptocurrency would be an amazing talk and that you, his listeners, would find great value in his ideas and his awareness.
But first, letâs talk about âWhat is Cryptographyâ. All of you use it, daily, but probably donât really understand it. Hereâs Wikipediaâs definition: What Is Cryptography? Cryptography is the practice and study of techniques for secure communication in the presence of third parties called adversaries. More generally, cryptography is about constructing and analyzing protocols that prevent third parties or the public from reading private messages, various aspects iin information security such as data confidentiality, data integrity, authentication, and non-repudiation are central to modern cryptography.
Modern cryptography exists at the intersection of the disciplines of mathematics, computer science, electrical engineering, communication science, and physics. Applications of cryptography include electronic commerce, chip-based payment cards, digital currencies, computer passwords, and military communications.
The Beginning of Cryptography So one may ask, âitâs 1993, how the heck did Paul Rosenberg run into cryptographyâ? In this episode, Paul explains how he did in fact fall into cryptography. How it all began and where it is now.  And interestingly enough, did he actually inspire the creation of cryptocurrency way back then.
Find out who his mentors were, where his ideas came from.
Today, cryptography is used for everything. Mikkel and Paul Rosenberg talk about hash symbols and what they are? Where they started and how important they are.
Today, itâs March 24th, 2020. We are in the thick of the Coronavirus. China has pulled itself out of the pandemic; however, Italy and the USA are right at the early stages. This interview was done last week, and itâs interesting to hear Paul talk about his thoughts one week ago and where we are today with the virus.Â
Mikkel and Paul also discuss:
Hong Kong uprising
Brexit
Coronavirus
Trade War
Election Year
And what do those things all have in common? This is truly an episode that you canât miss and you wonât want to turn off and listen to until later. Â
Libertarian Everyone knows Mikkel Thorup is a true blue Libertarian. Paul and Mikkel discuss why more and more...
Ott Vatter is the Managing Director of the first âgovernmental start-upâ, e-Residency. He took up the mantle of MD in 2019, having previously held the position of Deputy Director. He was responsible for the scale-up of the e-Residency project through strategic partnerships and product development from 2015 to the present day.
He has spoken at several high-profile events like the World Knowledge Forum in South Korea where he spoke alongside the President of Estonia, Kersti Kaljulaid, about how digital initiatives like e-Residency will pave the way for stronger economic and societal relations worldwide.
Back in 2014, Ott Vatter was hired by the Estonian Government to work on a special project, to figure out how to distribute national documents to non-citizens globally using Estonia's e-government platform. He realized quickly that he needed more time and took on an additional 18 months. Today, 5 years later, he is still employed by the Estonian Government and is the Managing Director for the e-Residency program.
Letâs start out with the not so obvious. Most of you may be thinking, ooh, e-residency in Estonia, I can go and live there and reap all the benefits of residency. Well, itâs not exactly how it works. You canât actually live in Estonia; however, the program is really forward-thinking and as a matter of fact, has attracted 70,000 e-residents and 11,000 businesses in the 5 years since it started.
Listen to this really interesting podcast to learn what the real benefits of an Estonian e-residency.
Mikkel Thorup and Ott Vatter discuss how, why and where you can apply for an e-residency.
What Can You Expect When You Apply For An Estonian e-Residence
How long can you expect to take before the process is complete
Who gets accepted
Who doesnât get accepted
What is the cost to apply
Do I have to come to Estonia? Or can I do it all online
What documents do I need to provide
Is This Program For You? Ott and Mikkel also talk in length about who this program is for. Do you think you qualify? Do you want to qualify?
What About Taxation? You are a US citizen travelling around the world as a digital nomad. Is getting an Estonian e-residency for you? Every country taxes their citizens differently, how different is Estonia? And of course, itâs not just income tax, what about VAT? Estonia is part of the EU, so do they fall into the same category with VAT? Are you required to pay it? Or can you sidestep the process?
These are all really great questions that Ott Vatter and Mikkel Thorup discuss in this episode of The Expat Money Show.
A ton of research goes into each and every episode here on The Expat Money Show, especially for something like this e-residency program. What I found that was so fascinating was their sense of community. Who would have thought that Digital Nomads would want to reach out to other Digital Nomads inside or outside of Estonia and connect?  Find out how and when they do exactly this and most importantly, why they do this.
What Are The Next Steps? Itâs been 5 years since this all began. The Estonian Government is now really good at what you do, considering 70,000 people have registered for this e-residency. They clearly have the citizen's best interest at heart. Whatâs next?
The Future for Digital Nomads is ever-changing. The Estonian Government wants to be in the forefront of technology. Listen in to find out what they have in mind to launch next, you will be blown away. If fact, it was so interesting that Mikkel asked if Ott maybe had some âinside informationâ lol.
How to Contact Ott Vatter Ott Vatter can be reached at https://e-resident.gov.ee/ (https://e-resident.gov.ee/)
And you can find him on Twitter and Instagram.
Final Thoughts From Mikkel I was really intrigued by this interview I did with Ott Vatter. I had never heard of a country doing e-residency's like this and I just...
It's great to be back! It's been a few months since I've have had the opportunity to sit down at my desk, put my headphones on and interview some of the most brilliant minds in the expat space. I'm happy to announce that today, I had an amazing conversation with Mr. Warren Black, from https://www.wealthsafe.com.au/ (WealthSafe).
Warren is a specialist in Australian and international taxation. His expertise is in offshore tax planning and higher-level tax structuring for investors and business owners. His credentials include over 30 years of experience in tax and wealth protection, 10 years at the Australian Taxation Office, he has qualifications as an accountant, lawyer and investment advisor. He is passionate about sovereignty and freeing business owners and investors from the oppression of unjust taxes and government asset thefts - 100% legally.
Warren Black started out of university as an accountant. Law & finance interested him so he decided to obtain a law degree. He worked for the government and absolutely hated it, so quit and opened his own tax business. A few years later he got certified as an investment Councillor and now runs a completely sovereign business helping individuals and businesses legally reduce their tax bill. In Warrenâs own words, his mission is to "help his clients slash their tax 100% legally.
Mikkel Thorup and Warren Black have a candid conversation about governments and what they each despise most about government control. The corruption, the bureaucracy, and if countries are not on the ball, we'll be seeing more go the way of Venezuela, Chile and Bolivia. For instance:
ABU DHABI, UAE Countries like the UAE, where Mikkel Thorup and his family lived for over 8 years, originally had zero income tax. In fact, there was no tax of any sort. Then 2 years ago, they decided to implement a 5% VAT for the entire population. Nothing was exemt, if you could buy it, it was taxed.
Well, the government racked in several million dollars in revenue, and as predicted, has gotten greedy and wants more. We could see that one coming. Once a government tastes this extra 'free' revenue, they always want more. Here it comes: as announced in https://www.khaleejtimes.com/ (KhaleejTimes), within the next 18 months, these taxes will be implemented.
December 2019 100% tax on tobacco
50% on soft drinks
Corporate Tax
Property Tax
Income Tax
The government just doesn't realize that people have moved to the UAE due to the fact that they can make more money than at home and they don't have to pay any taxes. Do you think they've actually thought this one through? or are they just greedy parasites wanting what their citizens have and more? Predictions are that the population of the UAE will decrease quickly over the next several years.
Companies that don't pay their employees a great salary today will have to double their wages so that they will stay in the country and work; and because of that, costs of goods will double, and all of a sudden the UAE isn't a great place to live and work any longer.
Here are a few of my most favourite episodes so far (I have so many, it was really hard to choose)
FINAL THOUGHTS I had a ton of fun with this interview with Warren Black from https://www.wealthsafe.com.au/ (Wealth Safe). He is a die-hard libertarian, like me, so we had a lot to chat about. I know you'll love this interview as much as I do. Make sure to sign up for my newsletter, I know you'll get a ton of value from it.

Mark Nestmann has a Masters of Law in international tax law. His work has been featured in well-known media outlets including The Washington Post, ABC News, The New York Times, Bloomberg News, Business Week and Forbes. Fans of his work include former US Congressman Ron Paul and Bob Bauman, as well as famed analysts Gary North and Dr Mark Skousen. He has been able to help more than 15,000 customers and clients protect their assets, protect themselves and live more free lives. In this interview with Mark Nestmann, they really dive deep on why the Americans have negative views towards offshore investing.
Negative View Towards Offshore Investing Mikkel Thorup starts off this interview with Mark Nestmann talking about why US citizens have such a negative attitude about Americans living and doing business overseas. Is this a justified concerned?
The US has the worldâs largest economy. With 300 Million people, only 60% have travelled outside of the country. That leaves 40% that have not. Many have only travelled to the bordering countries, Canada and Mexico. So itâs hard for most Americans to understand why someone would want to move or live overseas. Mark Nestmann explains why Americans have this belief system and sets the record straight.
Here are a few of the topics discussed about these negative views regarding offshore investing:
The mainstream media equates investments outside the US with Tax evasion
There are 9 million Americans that live overseas that require a bank account, why is this any different than Americans living inside the USA
All nationalities must have a bank account if they live overseas
Tax Havens, yes or no The next question Mikkel Thorup & Mark Nestmann discuss is that the USA is the largest tax haven in the world. Due to FACTA, they have no information exchange. This information is invaluable and is quite interesting to learn from Mark.
Mikkel asks Mark Nestmann:Â What have you seen, do most Americans who live outside the US live in tax havens? Is it hard for Americans to get bank accounts when they live overseas?
The majority of US citizens living overseas actually have to pay higher taxes than if they lived in the USA. Canada is the #1 destination for US citizens to live overseas because it is right next door, they speak English and they have a similar culture. However, taxes are higher. 1 Million Americans live in Canada. 1 Million Americans also live in Mexico. The other 8 Million are spread throughout the rest of the world.
Mikkelâs next question to Mark Nestmann was, why would an American wish to consider living outside the US? Iâm sure many of you may be wondering about that. The US currency is really strong, there are lots of opportunities available for Americans, and if they have to pay higher taxes, what is the draw? Listen in to hear Mark discuss this in detail.
Overseas Bank Accounts The discussion then turns to what unique entrepreneurial opportunities exist outside the US that isnât available domestically.
Apart from the need to readjust to a new culture when moving outside the US, what unique challenges do Americans face when they relocate to another country?
Most will find this extremely interesting. There are more than nine million Americans living overseas, but only about 500,000 file tax returns with the IRS. Does that mean the other 8.5 million are evading tax?
What options does an American living abroad have if he/she hasnât been filing tax returns, FBARs, etc.? This is fully explained in this interview with Mark Nestmann. Make sure you have a pen and paper to take notes.
To set the record straight, when do you have to file a tax return as an American?

In this brilliant interview with Olly Richards from https://learn.iwillteachyoualanguage.com/uncovered-select-language?affiliate_id=1764132 (I Will Teach You A Language) we find out that he has travelled the world and taught himself eight foreign languages. He says he can teach you the secrets to learning a foreign language quickly using an innovative story-based method that puts the fun back into learning. His philosophy involves making your language learning fit around your lifestyle, tolerating mistakes, and enjoying the journey as much as the destination.  You may be asking yourself these questions: Can I learn a foreign language? Is Spanish easy to learn? and how can I learn a second language? Listen in to this amazing interview with Olly Richards, he is going to answer all of these questions and more!
What Are The Eight Languages Olly Richards speaks?
English
French
Italian
Spanish
Portuguese
Japanese
Cantonese
Arabic
A Smattering of German and Thai (so these two Olly does not count in his eight languages)
Where Did The Love of Language Come From The reasons for learning a second language are different for everyone, for Olly Richards, he wanted to converse with people from different nationalities.
Growing up monolingual, learning French was Ollyâs first foreign language. He worked extremely hard and lived in Paris. His next two languages were Spanish & Portuguese. He states that these three languages were fairly easy to learn as a native English speaker. Why? Because they are very similar in nature, due to their Latin roots.
Next came Japanese. Well, this is certainly different! Nothing prepared him for learning his 5th language. Listen to this interview with Olly Richards to hear how he managed to learn Japanese and Cantonese that have characters and have nothing to do with the rules of English. So fascinating!
What is at the root of being able to learn a second language Or 8 languages as it is for Olly Richards. Mikkel Thorup and Olly Richards talk about their experiences as they have decided and followed through to learn a second language. What was it for them? What is it for you? Are you thinking of learning a foreign language? Are you relocating to another country and feel forced to learn a second language?
During this interview with Olly Richards, he takes all the questions you may have and the doubts that you have instilled in yourself, your limiting belief pattern, and squashes every idea youâve ever thought to be true.
WANT $100 OFF OLLYS FRENCH COURSE? http://expatmoneyshow.com/french (CLICK HERE)
Limiting beliefs like:
Itâs impossible to learn a second language at my age
No one can learn Mandarin if you are not Chinese
I donât encourage my child to learn more than 1 language at a time because it will confuse them
I have a bad memory; therefore, I can never learn a second language
Hereâs the truth:
Anyone can learn a second language
Everyone with the right motivation and condition can learn Mandarin
Children can learn 5 or 6 languages at the same time and it will NEVER confuse them
A bad memory is a self-fulfilling prophecy. If you believe you have a bad memory, then you do
How To Learn A Second Language So the question is: How can I learn a foreign language? and Is Spanish easy to learn? or whatever language you want to learn.
Olly Richards started his online teaching course called https://learn.iwillteachyoualanguage.com/uncovered-select-language?affiliate_id=1764132 (I Will Teach You A Language) because he loved being around people and really wanted to communicate with all different nationalities. He realized quickly that learning through traditional books, cue cards, and teachers for 1 hour per week was just an inefficient way to learn a foreign language. No matter what language it was.
What worked for Olly...
Shlomo Freund is a serial entrepreneur. His latest company is called Free Financial Self, where he helps expats eliminate money as a source of stress and gain confidence in their future finances. He has travelled to 32 countries so far and he lived in China for 3 years as an expat. There he built a company that is still operating called App In China, where he helps foreign companies distribute their app on the Chinese market. In this episode of The Expat Money Show, we are going to discuss financial freedom for expats.
As promised, from Free Financial Self:Â Â http://www.freefinancialself.com/ems (Click Here For Free Net Worth Calculator)
Mikkel Thorup and Shlomo Freund discuss how and why expats need help becoming financially free. Iâm sure you wonât be surprised! Tips to avoid falling into several traps that steal your hard-earned money; however, may be surprising. Todayâs episode is all about a system of preparation and follows through to achieve financial freedom for you, the expat.
When we talk about financial freedom for expats, weâre not talking about making enough money to live off. Weâre discussing how to take the money you do make, and make it work for you.
If youâve wondered how entrepreneurs make and keep their money, this is how they do it.
During this interview with Shlomo, he explains that you MUST start at the beginning. Point A
What do you want to happen in 5 years, 10 years, 30 years
where do you want to go
have you calculated your net worth? if not, this needs to be done
This is Point A
So what is Point B? There is so much to know about Point B and Shlomo tells us all how this is done.
Here are some of the concepts Shlomo Freund from Free Financial Self talks about in this episode. Crowd Investing Crowd investing is the term given when a large group of people, the crowd, co-invest in people or businesses online. CI encompasses both equity and debt forms of investing as well as hybrid forms of the two. Those investing together donât necessarily know each other before they decide to invest
Equity crowdfunding This is perhaps the type of crowd investing that investors are most familiar with. Equity crowdfunding allows businesses to sell shares in their company to âthe crowdâ.
Peer-to-Peer Lending https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peer-to-peer_lending (Peer-to-peer lending), also abbreviated as P2P lending, is the practice of lending money to individuals or businesses through online services that match lenders with borrowers.
Mikkel asks, âhow different is this from being a Digital Nomad? Shlomo explains in full detail. During this interview, Mikkel asks some really great questions for Shlomo to walk you all through what it would be like for you if you can see what it is you desire for your life.
What is most important to you?
Do you want to get married in 5 years?
Start having a family in 8 years?
What about retirement?
Letâs say you are 25 right now, what do you do? Where do you start? Before you know it, 20 years has flown by, youâre 45 years old and you havenât saved a penny. You did get married but didnât have the wedding you really wanted or havenât been able to give your children what they want or deserve.
Why?
Because you didnât have a plan to get where you wanted to go. At Free Financial Self, this is what Shlomo helps entrepreneurs at any stage of their life get. Financial freedom for expats is doable and if this is important to you, then I urge you strongly to listen to this episode. It really is fascinating!

Joel Nagel, from Nagel & Associates Law in Pittsburgh, PA is our guest today to talk about Citizenship by Investment and Residency by Investment programs and the options that are available to the globally-minded individual. In EP 63 of the Expat Money Show, Joel talked in depth about Asset Protection. Today we have him and really go deep on Citizenship by Investment and specifically about Cyprus Residency Program and obtaining a second passport. What a huge topic, and I know youâre going to love it. Go someplace quiet with a pen and notepad because youâre going to want to take notes! Joel Nagel is arguably one of the most famous and well-respected lawyers in this space on the planet and has helped hundreds of clients from all over the globe to get a second residency and second passport abroad.
What is Citizenship by Investment or CBI? Letâs start with what is Citizenship by Investment? or CBI? We will shorten it to CBI if thatâs okay with you
There are multiple ways to get second citizenship in countries other than where you were born. Itâs an old concept, one that is quoted in the bible some 2000 years ago. Things have obviously changed since then, but the concept remains the same. You were born into one country. And that country, along with its political ties and socio-economic platforms, have a passport that has rules attached. Some passports are exceptional like Singapore and others are crap, like Iraq.
The modern concept of Citizenship by Investment is only about 25 years old. Each year more and more countries get on board as they see their neighbouring countries being infused with new cash and a more stable economy.
The idea of CBI is that you can either trade cash or buy real estate to obtain residency or citizenship into a new country.
Each country has different rules because they all have different needs. Countries like the US and Canada were built on immigrants coming from European countries. They were told that life would be better in Canada and the immigration laws were very easy to get residency. Today, the laws are considerably stricter and to become a Canadian citizen can take 5 years or more. Likewise for the US and obtaining their Green Card.
What is Residency by Investment Residency by Investment can be obtained much quicker than CBI. You apply for permanent residency in a country and from there it can still take 5 years. Often you only have to be in the country 1 day every year or 1 week. Not everyone needs a passport, they just want to live somewhere if something happens to their country.
How Much Does it Cost Mikkel and Joel Nagel talk about the cost of obtaining both residency by investments and citizenship by investment in different countries. When you are ready to sit down and discuss where you want to live, there are questions that the lawyers will ask you. For instance:
What is your budget
How quickly do you want it
When do you want to go
Where do you want to live
Mikkel asks, Is that investment in the Passport? OR is there an investment and you get the passport as a by-product. Listen as Joel Nagel explains this concept in detail.
Cyprus Citizenship by Investment Cyrpus has an amazing program for those that want to invest in property to become citizens of Cyprus. 2 Million Euros and in 6 months you have permanent residency. The funds stay in escrow but you own the property when it is complete and when you want to move or sell the property and leave the country, you can and you reap the benefits of a good real estate market.
Cyrpus only opens up 700 applications for this program every year. But if you do the math, 700 x 2 million euros, thatâs 1,4B Euros infused into the economy. Every year. There are some additional fees like 5% VAT.
Bulgaria Citizenship by Investment Bulgaria is similar to Malta. You are buying government bonds. The lower end of the investment grade. You will not get any...
Dr. Sean Mcfate is a strategic maverick. He is an author, novelist, and expert in foreign policy and national security strategy and is a professor of strategy at the National Defense University and Georgetown Universityâs School of Foreign Service. He began his career as a paratrooper and officer in the U.S. Armyâs storied 82nd Airborne Division. Among his many experiences, he dealt with warlords, raised small armies, worked with armed groups in the Sahara, transacted arms deals in Eastern Europe, and helped prevent an impending genocide in the Rwanda region. Looking forward as the new face of war and the new rules of war.
After reading his newest book, The New Rules of War: Victory in the Age of Durable Disorder, you will agree, it is fantastic. And I have heard, it is generating a lot of discussion inside the Pentagon.
How Do You Become a Mercenary? Dr. Sean McFate shares his early years in the 1990s where it all began. From his life as a paratrooper to working for a private military company in Africa in the 2000s.
His story is one we only hear about in action movies and spy game novels. But this, however, was Dr. McFateâs life, and the lives of many many people. We try to think that maybe things like this donât happen to real people, that it is a concept for the movies, but let me tell you, these people are real and they have been in existence for thousands of years. He was a private military contractor which is a euphemism for a mercenary.
In this interview with Dr. Sean McFate, Mikkel asks the hard questions. Make sure you listen to this compelling interview.
Before we go too much further, letâs get some definitions out of the way. Itâs important you understand what weâre talking about in this interview.
Definitions Mercenary https://www.definitions.net/definition/mercenary (Mercenary): noun 1. a professional soldier hired to serve in a foreign army.

Mikkel Thorup, host of the Expat Money Show interviews himself. Truly it is nice to hear whatâs been going on in the life of an expat living in the Middle East. The changes over the past 6 months, and whatâs ahead for the next 6 months. The fact that he has written an email for https://ExpatMoneyShow.com/protection (EMS Pulse Daily Newsletter) every day for more than 300 days is pretty darn impressive!
Imagine 79 Weeks straight of broadcasting the Expat Money Show. Every. Single. Friday! Mikkel shares what itâs like to have a weekly podcast, the work involved and how much growth has taken place since he ventured into this space.
The great thing about podcasting is that itâs very personal. He researches his guests, talks with them, books them on the show and then really gets to know them on a personal level during the one-hour conversation. After the episode airs he sends the recording to his guest so that they can send out to their audience, and he, of course, sends to his via his website, the Expat Money Show. It becomes like a cross-pollination of genres and fans. Itâs a win/win for sure.
Past Guests Weâve always believed in co-operation, not competition. Thatâs why youâll hear from guests that are in our field in the offshore market. Guests like https://expatmoneyshow.com/doug-casey-anarcho-capitalist-speculator-autobiography/ (Doug Casey) in episode 60 from https://internationalman.com/ (International Man). Or https://expatmoneyshow.com/richard-maybury-how-will-the-trade-war-with-china-affect-you-and-your-investments/ (Richard Maybury) from The Early Warning Report in episode 6. And https://expatmoneyshow.com/john-perkins-confessions-of-an-economic-hitman-yesterday-and-today/ (John Perkins) from episode 71 â Confessions of an Economic Hitman. These old boys really know how to knock it out of the park! The lessons of life learned from these 3 veterans are like gold.
If you havenât listened to these 3 podcasts specifically, go and take some time so that you can understand where we were and where we should be going, today!!
Past guests become friends in most cases. Everyone works together to help build each other up so thatâs what makes podcasting so worthwhile. For Mikkel, this is what makes the business so much fun.

Mikkel has been writing the EMS Pulse Daily Newsletter for 300 days straight. Imagine. Not missing one day. He tells us that it would have been so easy to skip a day because he wasnât feeling well. Or just didnât feel like it. But thatâs not who he is. Rule #1 in life: Do all you say you are going to do. Simple. Easy. Just do it! He committed to writing to you every day. Keeping you abreast of what was going on in his daily life and that of the Expat Money Show. And that he has done!

Next came Malaysia

Brandon Pearce is the creator of Family Adventure Academy, an annual live event for families interested in long-term travel, location independence, alternative education, entrepreneurship, community, deepening family relationships, and more. With his wife and 3 children, they have been travelling the world for the past 10 years, visiting over 40 countries and world schooling their children along the way.
âTwenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didnât do than by the things you did.â ~ Mark Twain
Whatâs the difference between world schooling, homeschooling, and unschooling.
World Schooling World Schooling is an opportunity to let your children grow at their own pace. To develop the confidence to turn strangers into friends knowing that you are there close-by while they need you.
With world schooling, children learn from real-life experiences. They can learn naturally about the places they go, the people they meet and the experiences they have. Imagine learning about the pyramids by travelling down the Nile River in Egypt; volcanos at the top of Mount Vesuvius; the Amazon rain forest on a riverboat cruise down the Amazon River, about Buddhism in Thailand.
Homeschooling https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homeschooling (Homeschooling), also known as home education is the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Education (education) of children at home or a variety of other places. Home education is usually conducted by a parent or tutor or online teacher. Many families use less formal ways of educating. âHomeschoolingâ is the term commonly used in North America, whereas âhome educationâ is commonly used in the United Kingdom, Europe, and in many Commonwealth countries.
Unschooling https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unschooling (Unschooling) is an educational method and philosophy that advocates learner-chosen activities as a primary means for learning. Students learn through their natural life experiences including play, household responsibilities, personal interests and curiosity, internships and work experience, travel, books, elective classes, family, mentors, and social interaction.
Unschooling encourages exploration of activities initiated by the children themselves, believing that the more personal learning is the more meaningful, well-understood and therefore useful it is to the child. While courses may occasionally be taken, unschooling questions the usefulness of standard https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curricula (curricula), conventional grading methods, and other features of traditional schooling in the education of each unique child.
World schooling and homeschooling is always a hot topic here on the Expat Money Show. Weâve had several guests that decided that living the life of an Expat Entrepreneur was the way to go. https://expatmoneyshow.com/sam-mcroberts-how-to-internationalize-your-life-so-you-can-protect-your-wealth-and-protect-your-family/ (Sam McRoberts) from the USA is one of them. Running his SEO Company, Vudu Marketing from the road, along with his wife and son, they are travelling the world while world schooling. This episode was fantastic, and even if youâve listened to it once, itâs worth listening to again.
If youâre still not satisfied that Unschooling is whatâs best for your children, hereâs an article that Mikkel Thorup wrote last year. It will open your eyes to whatâs going on with traditional education.

Real Estate in Belize We chat with Rachel about all the technical stuff behind buying international real estate in a foreign country. What do you need to know before you buy real estate in Belize? I bet you have dozens of questions about the safety, the viability, is it a sound investment and much more. Rachel explains in layman terms how you can minimize the risks when you are buying international real estate. If you are seriously considering buying real estate in Belize, then this is the interview for you.

They have properties on the Ocean, on the Gulf in the Caribbean, inland, on an island and now in a vineyard. So many of their clients have wanted to buy property in Napa Valley, California but just donât have the $3 Million that it takes to own a property there.
At Gran Vineyard Estates you can own your own piece of heaven for a fraction of the cost. Rachel paints a beautiful picture of what the land will look like when the homes and resorts are finished and ready to move in to.
Imagine living at the foothills of the Andes, surrounded by a vineyard in your little piece of heaven.
Mikkel Thorup interviewed top Real Estate Investor â https://expatmoneyshow.com/grant-cardone-how-millionaires-think-developing-millionaires-mindset/ (Grant Cardone) a few weeks ago. It was an amazing interview where Grant tells us how he spent his first 3 years leading up to his first real estate purchase. If you havenât had a chance to listen to his episode, here it is: https://expatmoneyshow.com/grant-cardone-how-millionaires-think-developing-millionaires-mindset/ (Grant Cardone Interview with Mikkel Thorup.)

Marek Zmyslowski is a Polish-born entrepreneur and executive, focused on online businesses in Frontier and Emerging Markets. He co-founded HotelOnline.co â a Hospitality Technology Company, and Jumia Travel â Africaâs Biggest Hotel Booking Portal, with backing from Rocket Internet and Goldman Sachs. In 2014, he was chosen as one of the Ten Most Important People in Tech by IT News Africa Magazine. He is a Lead Mentor at Googleâs Launchpad and World Bankâs XL Africa Program.
Starting a Business in Lagos, Nigeria Lagos, Nigeriaâs largest city, sprawls inland from the Gulf of Guinea across Lagos Lagoon. Victoria Island, the financial center of the metropolis, is known for its beach resorts, boutiques, and nightlife. To the north, Lagos Island is home to the National Museum Lagos, displaying cultural artifacts and craftworks. Nearby is Freedom Park, once a colonial-era prison and now a major venue for concerts and public events. With a population of 21,000,000, Lagos is one of the fastest growing cities in the world.
Imagine leaving your home country of Poland to start a business in one of the largest cities in the world population wise. Thatâs what Marek Zmyslowski did in 2013. His story is incredible!
Corruption is rampant! The police, the government, the people. How do you create something new and profitable? Will the people accept you? Listen in to this episode with Marek Zmyslowski to hear his stories. These stories led him to write âChasing Black Unicornsâ.
Chasing Black Unicorns Wolf of Wall Street meets Indiana Jones. âChasing Black Unicornsâ is a memoir of one of the most recognized Polish internet entrepreneurs, Marek ZmysĆowski. Witty and humorous, although it describes real, often dangerous events. Before moving to Nigeria to build the Amazon of Africa, ZmysĆowski was an early employee of one of the biggest Polish financial services company and the founder of many online ventures in Eastern Europe.
While building the first nationwide network of funeral services, he had to face the Polish mafia. His businesses in Nigeria made him some powerful enemies, who corrupted the police and government officials against him. Overnight Marek Zmyslowski became an international fugitive on the run and was put on the most wanted list by Interpol, an organization with a history of abuse by corrupt regimes. Marek ZmysĆowski describes this and many other events and puts them in the context of African history and cultures, a continent he fell in love with.
Marek Zmyslowskiâs book, Chasing Black Unicorns has been published in his home country of Poland. The book is being translated into English and will be available in September 2019. If you go to his website you can pre-order a copy of the book, which I encourage all of you to do. It sounds like itâs going to be filled with some pretty amazing stories!
100% of his income from the book sales will go to giving laptops and coding lessons to the smartest pupils from the poorest families in Nigeria.
Intrigue and adventure. If you love listening to others talk about a life that sounds like it came out of a spy novel or movie, then our guest https://expatmoneyshow.com/john-perkins-confessions-of-an-economic-hitman-yesterday-and-today/ (John Perkins) will delight you!
How to Reach Marek Zmyslowski http://www.marekzmyslowski.com/ (www.marekzmyslowski.com)
FINAL THOUGHTS What a life Marek Zmyslowski has led at such a young age. What he has been able to accomplish and still does even against all of the corruption in Nigeria.  I canât wait to read his book, Chasing Black Unicorns coming out in English in September 2019.

Millionaires Mindset Grant Cardone starts in the beginning. What life was like for his mom after his dad passed away and what her fears were and how they affected Grant from the age of 10 to probably into his 40âs. Creating a Millionaires Mindset was hard for Grant to overcome.

Renting a Home Instead of Buying Grant Cardone and Mikkel Thorup spend a lot of time discussing the lies weâve all been told about real estate. I can bet your parents told you over and over again, never rent your home, buy it, always buy your home. The biggest lie is because that just makes your landlord rich! Am I right! But listening to Grant Cardone, he tells you the opposite.
In this 60 minute interview with Grant Cardone from Cardone Capital, he lays it out so that you can live the life you want, not coming from fear, especially your parents fear.
Grant Cardones Gulf Stream 550 Have you dreamed of owning your own jet! Grant Cardone breaks down for us why when you have a Millionaireâs mindset, owning your own jet can make you rich, really really rich.  And why it was the best investment he has ever made. He tells the story of flying into the UK and people noticed that he just arrived in his new Gulf Stream 550. If the Prince didnât want to talk to him before, he certainly does now!

What happened to Grant Cardones first jet
Why did Grant Cardone buy a new jet
How much does Grant Cardoneâs jet cost
What type of jet does Grant Cardone have
Did Grant Cardone buy his jet in cash
Cardone Capital The question is, have you always wanted to start investing in real estate but donât know how? maybe you canât get a bank loan? maybe you think that real estate has hit its peak price? For whatever reason, listen in to this episode and Grant Cardone will explain how CardoneCapital.com works. Who is getting in and how you can too.

She did this not only by finding ways to earn money, but also discovering creative techniques to live inexpensively.

Another great episode is with...
Dr. Jack Wheeler has been described by The Wall Street Journal as âThe Real Indiana Jonesâ. His lifelong accomplishments are so impressive that itâs hard to pick just a few.  Many would say that he is one of the greatest explorers of our time and the most interesting man of modern times.
Dr. Jack Wheeler ~ The Real Indiana Jones At age 12 he was the youngest Eagle Scout in American history and travelled to the White House to meet President Eisenhower. At 14 he was the youngest person to summit the Matterhorn in the Swiss Alps. In 1979 he led an expedition retracing, for the first time in history, Hannibalâs route over the Alps with Elephants. In 1981, he set the world record for the Most Northerly Parachute Jump: at 90°North, free-falling right onto the North Pole. And in 1996 he defeated both Vladimir Putin and his KGB bodyguard in arm wrestling in Kelly's Irish Times bar on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.
After receiving his Ph.D. in Aristotelian ethics from the University of Southern California in 1976, Dr. Jack Wheeler wrote his first book, The Adventurerâs Guide, the first how-to handbook to becoming an adventurer oneself.
In the same year, 1976, Dr. Jack Wheeler founded Wheeler Adventures, later to become Wheeler Expeditions, with the goal of leading anyone with an intrepid spirit and a positive attitude on thrilling journeys all around the world. He has designed and led unique, first-class adventures to exotic locations all around the world.
Mikkel Thorup and Dr. Wheeler talk about his Ph.D. in Aristotelian Ethics and discuss this statement:
A life of Eudaimonia is a life of striving. Itâs a life of pushing yourself to your limits and finding success. A Eudaimonistic life will be full of the happiness that comes from achieving something really difficult, rather than just having it handed to you.
Having a Ph.D. in Aristotelian Ethics led Dr. Jack Wheeler to explore the world in a unique and thought-provoking way. He asked questions of others that were compelling. This episode is so interesting in so many ways.
If you're like me, you wonder how people like Jack Wheeler and my previous guests can live a life filled with intrigue, espionage, and wonderment. In this episode, we talk about all of that and more! Please don't miss this amazing chat with The Real-Life Indiana Jones!
I absolutely love learning from my guests who have lived their lives to the fullest and have so many amazing and insightful stories. Stories that only they can tell, stories that don't happen to a countless number of people, only to them.

John Perkins was an Economic Hitman. After finishing Business School, he wanted to join the Peace Corp. Around the same time, he had a job interview with the NSA. Their assessment of him was that he would make the perfect Economic Hitman and they encouraged him to join the Peace Corp. There he was thrown into the jungles of the Amazon River. He learned how to survive, to speak another language and understand how developing nations worked.  After the Peace Corps, John was the Chief Economist at a major international consulting firm. He advised the World Bank, United Nations, IMF, U.S. Treasury Department, Fortune 500 corporations, and leaders of countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East.  You may ask, what is an Economic Hitman? and how did John Perkins come to write a book called "Confessions of an Economic Hitman?"  John Perkins life and the life of all Economic Hitman from around the globe are what action thriller movies are made of. Intrigue and espionage. Government coup and presidential assassination.  John tells us stories of working with Prime Ministers, Presidents, and Heads of States of several Countries around the Globe during the 1970s. John Perkins was told he was doing good work, that the only way to help developing countries was to get them huge loans to build schools, infrastructure and more. However, the reality was that the money wasn't going to the countries involved, it was going to large corporations inside the USA who would build the roads and the schools and the countries would be left with a huge debt that they couldn't possibly pay off.  Mikkel Thorup and John Perkins talk in-depth about:The story behind the story Iran Regime Change - the origin Jamie Raldos - Ecuador president assassinated Omar Torrijos - Panama president assassinated Iraq - Saddam Hussein 3 stages - economic hitman - jackals - military Corporatocracy
Confessions Of An Economic HitmanConfessions Of An Economic Hitman took 14 years to write. It provides Perkins' account of his career with engineering consulting firm Chas. T. Main in Boston. Ultimately, Confessions spent 73 weeks on the New York Times nonfiction bestseller list, has been published in at least 32 languages and is used in many college and university programs.  Life After the NSA and Chas. T. MainLet's Talk About 'What is a Capitalist'?A capitalist is a person who uses their wealth to invest in trade and industry for profit in accordance with the principles of capitalism. Likewise, Capitalism is an economic and political system in which a country's trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state.  What Is CorporatocracyCorporatocracy is a term used to refer to an economic and political system controlled by corporations or corporate interests. It is most often used as a term to describe the economic situation in a particular country. This is different from corporatism, which is the organization of society into groups with common interests. Corporatocracy as a term is often used by observers across the political spectrum.  How Can we Change our PerceptionsTo be successful we need to change our perceptions. And how can we change our perceptions? We need to create a lifestyle, to create companies, to create a business' that look to the long term benefits not just the short term benefits for all.  We need to protect the only planet we have right now, be conscientious and do the right thing for future generations, and we need to work together to make huge changes.  He is an author & activist committed to transforming the world into a sustainable, just, and peaceful place where all beings thrive.  How to Reach John PerkinsJohn Perkins is a founder and board member of Dream Change and The...
Maurice Glazer is the CEO and founder of Glazer Financial Network who started out as a bookkeeper at the age of 17. He has preceded to work in financial services for more than 6 decades (let that sink in for a moment). Together with his son and grandson, they have grown Glazer Financial Network to over 4,000 clients around the world. They have included a branch of their company âExpat Tax Expertsâ, which helps Expatriates to figure out their financial situation and stay tax compliant. He travels extensively as a keynote speaker giving presentations in places like Belize, Mexico, Ecuador, Panama and all over the United States.
Maurice Glazer Maurice Glazer has been in the tax game since he was 7 years old. His extended family were entrepreneurs who convinced him that everyone needs a bookkeeper for their business so they understand where their money is going. Today, those rules haven't changed a bit. Tax laws have become more complex, and that is why having a tax expert to keep you tax compliant is so important.
From early on, Maurice Glazer understood the rule: Plan to Plan. For the past 6 decades this is how he and his company, Glazer Financial Network, have grown their company successfully. More than once Maurice used this phrase. He has several stories about helping companies and individuals become tax compliant and to work on offshore voluntary disclosure. Planning to Plan is what has made him such an exceptional tax accountant.
Listen in to hear funny stories in the life of Maurice Glazer about tax case for Jimmy Hoffa, Richard Pryor and many others that built his success!
Offshore Voluntary Disclosure The Offshore Voluntary Disclosure Program (OVDP) is a voluntary disclosure program specifically designed for taxpayers with exposure to potential criminal liability and/or substantial civil penalties due to a willful failure to report foreign financial assets and pay all tax due in respect of those assets. OVDP is designed to provide to taxpayers with such exposure
Protection from criminal liability and
Terms for resolving their civil tax and penalty obligations.
Ex: If your grandmother left you a sum of money that was sitting in Switzerland, you have to understand what needs to be done to stay tax compliant. Most accountants don't know how to file properly, it's why it is so important to have a great tax accountant.
Expat Tax Experts As an American Expat, Maurice Glazer and his team at Glazer Financial Network created Expat Tax Experts for you. Here are just a few of the advantages of working with Expat Tax Expert:
Over 50 Years of Experience
Income Tax Preparation
Personalized Service
FBAR and FATCA Filing
Are you an American Citizen living overseas? Do you know if your Tax Compliant? If you aren't sure or do know that you are NOT tax complaint, then you MUST listen to this episode.

FINAL THOUGHTS Such an informative episode with Maurice Glazer. I tell my audience on an ongoing basis how important being tax complaint is and what can happen when you do not follow the rules. I've always led my personal and business life being compliant and doing things the right way. When I have important documents I trust my lawyer to look over the paperwork to make sure I am not signing something I shouldn't. And when it comes to tax laws and preparation, I call on my ever so important tax accountant.  They always save me money, so why in the world would I ever try to go it alone.

Mikkel believes that he is carrying the torch to show his generation that there is something more than just the left and right governments and how important it is in this day and age to seek this information out.
Natural Law Natural Law can be summed up in 17 words - Do All You Have Agreed to Do and do not encroach on other persons or their property.
Humans cannot progress unless they are obeying these 17 words. Every legal system going back 6,000 years has followed this. Want to test Natural Law? Break Natural Law every day at every chance you get, and at the end of a week ask yourself "Has my life gotten better OR worse"?

Gunnar Garfors is a Norwegian media professional, traveller, and author who has circumnavigated the globe, visiting every country in the world. Not once, but twice! Author of Nowhere, his newest book walks us through the 20 least visited countries in the world.
The first time for Gunnar Garfors was on May 8th, 2013. He entered the 198th and last country, Cape Verde, as a 37 years-and-344-days-old, which made him the youngest person to visit all the countries of the world while working full-time, or as a hobby traveller.
Recently, he became the first person to have visited every country in the world TWICE. Consequently, while accomplishing this amazing feat, he has set several Guinness World Records.
Guinness World Record ~Â 5 Countries on 5 Continents in just one day
~Â 19 Countries in 24 hours
~Â 22 US states in 24 hours
Travel Changes You Gunnar Garfors says he's a Globetrotter and seeing the world has opened his eyes in so many ways that he would like to inspire others to do the same, or at least travel more.  We hear that a lot from our guests that are avid travellers. They all agree, Travel Changes You! And almost always for the best!
Travel Makes People Unite We've had some pretty awesome guests on our show. With Mikkel being such an avid traveller himself, he loves to hear stories about exotic and unknown countries. In https://expatmoneyshow.com/doug-casey-anarcho-capitalist-speculator-autobiography/ (Ep 60: Doug Casey) or https://expatmoneyshow.com/frank-bures-world-renowned-freelance-writer/https://expatmoneyshow.com/frank-bures-world-renowned-freelance-writer/ (Ep: Frank Bures) - we talk about dangerous adventures in Africa, really a fascinating episode. If you haven't listened in yet, definitely go back and enjoy!
Nowhere - The 20 Least Visited Countries in the World Gunnar Garfors newest book, Nowhere - The 20 Least Visited Countries is due in Norway bookstores this April. The rest of the world will have to wait until later this year! The concept behind his new book Nowhere is to showcase the 20 least visited countries in the world.
Mikkel does his very best to figure out which 20 countries out of 198 are the least visited! It's quite funny really as Mikkel manages to figure out about 1/2 of them. Gunnar Garfors talks about a few in this wonderful interview. He recounts stories of how he got into some of these war-torn countries and lived to tell the tale. Countries like Comoros, Africa getting 28,000 visitors a year. Why don't more visit this tiny island nation? What's there to attract tourism? What can be done to bring more tourists?
If countries like Comoros, or any other island nation interests you, you must go back and listen to https://expatmoneyshow.com/james-ellsmoor-renewable-energy/ (Ep 031: James Ellsmoor) as he talks about small island nations and the problems that they deal with today.
We talk about the South Pacific. Countries you may not have heard of, and why most don't go for a visit. It's usually not that they are not beautiful in their own right, it's usually infrastructure, government policies, etc.
Have you always wondered what countries like Iran and North Korea would be like to visit? Mikkel and Gunnar have both been...fascinating how they both felt the same about these two beautiful countries.
How about South Sudan, Yemen or Somalia? What does it take to enter into these countries? Are you somewhat interested? Have the wars destroyed the natural beauty of the landscape? Gunnar has been twice, to all of these countries and has found in some cases, drastic changes from the first visit to the last visit.

Lobo Tiggre is the founder, CEO, and principal analyst and editor at Louis James, LLC and The Independent Speculator. He has dedicated his work to the causes for free markets and individual liberty and is currently a member of the board of directors of Liberty International. He is a writer and publisher with many books to his name, along with co-authoring two of https://expatmoneyshow.com/doug-casey-anarcho-capitalist-speculator-autobiography/?preview_id=4002&preview_nonce=d8c828a47e&_thumbnail_id=4015&preview=true (Doug Casey) books from https://internationalman.com/ (International Man); whom he worked alongside with for 16 years writing under the pen name âLouis Jamesâ.
Speculator "a person who invests in stocks, property, or other ventures in the hope of making a profit"
I know many of you want to know if it's safe? are there risks involved? how much money can I make? or lose? Do I need a University degree to be a Speculator?
What Does It Take to be a Top Notched Speculator? Lobo Tiggre explains what makes a great speculator. Is it different than a gambler? What are the important distinctions between the two?
When you hear the word 'Speculator' what comes to mind? Mikkel Thorup and Lobo Tiggre discuss this as a profession or how becoming a Speculator could be an additional source of income.
We talk about how Gold is mined? where is it mined? What does gold mining look like in the beginning, with the Geologists and coming in contact with illegal miners. Lobo Tiggre tells a story about how creative locals can be when they believe there is something of value in the land they own. In Africa, many countries have a rule for artisan miners. If you can dig out of the ground by hand on your ancestral grounds with hand tools than that's free for you.

Additional Streams of Income After 67 episodes of The Expat Money Show, we have a few recurring themes with our guests and that is how to create additional streams of income. As an Expat we feel that it's important to have at least one additional stream of income and there are so many to choose from.  https://expatmoneyshow.com/pete-sisco-how-to-start-an-online-business-safely-leave-the-rat-race/ (In Episode 058: Pete Sisco), we talk about how to start an online business so you can safely leave the rat race. In episode https://expatmoneyshow.com/ian-bond-e-commerce-drop-shipping-as-an-expat/ (044: Ian Bond), we talk about E-Commerce and Drop Shipping.
This episode with Lobo Tiggre is another way to add additional streams of income. Becoming a Speculator. I believe you will really get a ton of value from this episode, so make sure to listen to all of the stories that Lobo shares with us, they are really incredible.
Even in https://expatmoneyshow.com/jim-rogers-shares-his-opinions-on-north-korea-china-mandarin-and-the-current-state-of-education/ (episode 036: with Jim Rogers), he explains why these types of professions are so important!
Who is Louis James? "Louis Jamesâ was legendary speculator https://expatmoneyshow.com/doug-casey-anarcho-capitalist-speculator-autobiography/?preview_id=4002&preview_nonce=d8c828a47e&_thumbnail_id=4015&preview=true (Doug Caseyâs) protĂ©gĂ© at Casey Research for almost 14 years, until early 2018. By 2007, he was writing and making investment recommendations in Caseyâs flagship newsletter, the International Speculator. Now he brings his experience, his connections, and his deal flow directly to you, without the barrage of marketing hype used by larger publishers with his newsletter, Independent Speculator.
We have had the privilege to interview several members of https://internationalman.com/ (International Man). One of our most recent was...
In this interview with Christoph Heuermann, we talk in detail about Libertarian concepts like his association with the Free Private City Project in Honduras; plus, alternative investments in Walnut farms overseas.
Christoph Heuermann has been to 140 countries as of this interview. That's pretty impressive for sure, and along the way, he does his best to understand the culture and the way of life that each country offers. When an alternative investment presents itself he has a better understanding of how the idea can play out.
Libertarian Concepts So the theme for today's interview with Christoph Heuermann was to look at alternative ways to make investments. Most would consider these Libertarian concepts. Things we were not taught in school, and not taught in University economic classes. So where do you learn about these Libertarian concepts?  Great question for our listeners!
Alternative Investments "Alternative Investments are investments or funds that invest in asset classes other than stocks, bonds, and cash. The term is a relatively loose one and includes tangible assets such as precious metals, arts, wine, antiques, coins, or stamps and some financial assets such as real estate"
Christoph Heuermann walks us through how he defines Alternative Investments and the risks involved. Risks can be anything from the local government buying back the land you've purchased, or bad weather for agriculture. Listen in to hear more!
Investing in Walnut Farms Alternative Investments like investing in walnut farms may seem like an unusual concept, but as we listen to Christoph Heuermann talk in depth about how it all begins and how each year plays out, we can get a feel for why so many leave the traditional investments and look elsewhere for healthy returns.
https://christoph.today/georgia-walnuts/ (Walnut Farm)
Free Private City Project After listening to this podcast regarding Free Private City Project in Honduras, you may be asking for more. If we could go back in time, even 50 years ago, and invest some money in Singapore or Hong Kong, would you do it? Of course, you would! Free Private City Project could be just that; the twist will be the Libertarian concepts applied. Take notes from this episode, lots to learn!
How to Reach Christoph Heuermann https://tax-free.today/ (www.tax-free.today)
https://christoph.today/ (christoph.today)Â personal blog
FINAL THOUGHTS Fascinating interview with Christoph Heuermann from Tax-Free.today. I'm certainly intrigued about the Libertarian concept of the Free Private City Project in Honduras. I truly believe that this interview will help many of our subscribers see a brighter future.

Joel Bowman, the Editorial Director for https://internationalman.com/ (International Man), talks to us today about real-world economic examples. He works alongside https://expatmoneyshow.com/doug-casey-anarcho-capitalist-speculator-autobiography/ (Doug Casey) and Dr. John Hunt helping individuals around the world to understand how internationalizing your life can free you from the State.
During Joel Bowman's professional career, he has written from more than 85 countries, a dozen of which he called temporary home. His columns have appeared in well know libertarian outlets, such as Mises.org, https://fee.org/ (FEE.org), https://www.lewrockwell.com/ (lewrockwell.com) and The Daily Reckoning, which he managed for 5 years with Bill Bonner and Addison Wiggin. He speaks regularly at conferences around the world on topics including philosophical anarchism, internationalizing your life and the decentralization revolution.
Real World Economic Examples Listen in to this amazing episode to hear Joel Bowman and Mikkel Thorup discuss real-world economic examples. We've never done an episode like this, so if you want to understand world economics past, present, and future, then you'll love this interview. Also, we delve into how our life can look when these lessons are implemented; therefore, creating a more interesting and peaceful life.
Internationalizing Your Life Have you ever wondered what this means? 'Internationalizing Your Life' Today we chat about why and how this can be done, from the beginning of deciding this life is for you, to implementing all of the steps for yourself. Here are a few of the ideas you can look at to see if internationalizing your life is for you:
Cost of Living in your current home city
Monthly outlay, examples: mortgage, credit card repayment, car insurance
Health Insurance Cost
Also, never think you can't afford it, you can afford it!
Travel is Fatal to Prejudice, Bigotry and Narrow Mindedness, and Many of Our People Need It Sorely on These Accounts ~ Mark Twain 1869 Â
Once you start travelling and seeing the world, the way others live, you start to question how you were brought up, what the governments have been telling you; most importantly, our schooling. Besides that, we have thousands of different ways to see culture, and there is no right way or wrong way.

In this interview with Joel Nagel, we discuss what asset protection is, how to protect your assets, the offshore markets, estate planning and how to make sure no-one would ever dare to sue you. Grab our brand new infographic report called https://expatmoneyshow.com/protection/ (â15 Global Strategies to Protect Your Wealthâ) for free that Joel and I created.
Interview with Joel Nagel Joel Nagel is an internationally-recognized lawyer, visionary, and strategic thinker. He has been featured in countless business publications across the world and quoted in U.S. News & World Report as well as in Forbes Magazine. He is the founder and managing partner of Nagel & Associates, LLC, which specializes in international law, estate planning, global commercial transactions, and asset protection.  And has been the Ambassador to Austria and other countries in Europe.
What are the Offshore Markets? We start the episode off with two important definitions: What is Asset Protection? and What are the Offshore Markets?
Investopediaâs Definition of Offshore âWhat is Offshore? â âOffshoreâ refers to a location outside of oneâs national boundaries, whether or not that location is land- or water-based. The term âoffshoreâ may be used to describe foreign banks, corporations, investments and deposits. A company may legitimately move offshore for the purpose of tax avoidance or to enjoy relaxed regulations.â
I ask Joel Nagel some questions like: âWhy do you use the offshore markets? Is there anything illegal, dodgy, or unethical about using the offshore markets in this manner?â
What is Asset Protection? Investopediaâs Definition of Asset Protection:
âAsset protection is the concept of and strategies for guarding oneâs wealth. Asset protection is a type of financial planning intended to protect oneâs assets from creditor claims. Individuals and business entities use asset protection techniques to limit creditorsâ access to certain valuable assets while operating within the bounds of debtor-creditor law.â
I also ask Joel Nagel some questions about asset protection like: âWhy do we need asset protection? Why donât people just use a normal asset protection lawyer and keep things onshore, or inside the USA?â
Hear how Joel Nagel describes asset protection and why he decided to practice this field of law, and the very personal reasons for doing so as it will help you understand why asset protection is so important.
Estate Planning Joel talks about how using the offshore markets and international trusts are more than just asset protection. Estate Planning is often just as important and is one of the three main reasons people go down this road.
Listen in to the complete episode to hear the third major reason you might want to consider the offshore markets for more than just asset protection.
Hear how the offshore markets can set your family up for generational wealth with Estate Planning and how you can responsibly pass your wealth on to your descendants.
How To Protect Your Assets In this interview with Joel Nagel, we go into depth on multiple strategies you can use to make creditors double think about coming after you and attorneys terrified to even consider suing you.

FINAL THOUGHTS Joel has really become a mentor to me these last couple of years. As he says in our interview: âwe are cut from the same cloth" and I tend to agree with him.

In this episode of The Expat Money Show, we speak to Ronald Stöferle, author of In Gold We Trust Report. We talk about the relationship between The Austrian School of Economics And The Gold Standard. Also, China's Role In Gold Markets, and his Gold Predictions going forward.
Ronald Stöferle Ronald Stöferle is one of four managing partners in https://www.incrementum.li/en/ (Incrementum AG), an independent investment and asset management company based in Liechtenstein. They specialize in a holistic form of asset management and professional portfolio management for retail investors. Along with his partner Mark Valek, they have created an annual gold report, In Gold We Trust Report, which is the gold standard of all gold studies.
The Austrian School of Economics And The Gold Standard I ask Ronald Stöferle about The Austrian School of Economics and the Gold Standard and their relationship together. Ronald explains it is not so much about gold and the gold standard. The Austrian School of Economics is a way to look at investing in general and how investing and monetary flow fits into our world. Listen in to hear Ronald Stöferle's views on The Austrian School of Economics and the Gold Standard in his own words.
China's Role In Gold Markets China's role in gold markets is extremely interesting. Obviously, we know that governments like China are using gold as a way to hedge against inflation, and as Ronald Stöferle explains in this interview it's pretty much a non-secret that China holds a considerable amount more gold than they are reporting to the rest of the world. Listen to Ronald Stöferle's stories of visiting Shanghai and his opinions on China's role in gold markets.
Gold Prediction 2019 We discuss not only gold predictions for 2019 but also for 5 and 10 years out. Will it be 5k an oz? 6k an oz?
Listen to today's interview with Ronald Stöferle to hear where he thinks gold is heading. And as importantly, WHY he believes it will go in that direction.
In Gold We Trust Report In Gold We Trust Report is the gold standard in gold reports. Last year it was downloaded more than 1.7 million times and is available in English and German (2019 will also be available in Chinese).
The report is now more than 230 pages long and has taken a team of analysts months of work to compile. Listen in to hear Ronald Stöferle explain how he has tried to incorporate an Austrian School of Economics view of the world in his report and how he uses fun easily understood examples of the value of gold in relation to things like the price of 1L of beer at Octoberfest in Munich, or gold in relation to the price of a ticket to Walt Disney World.
Ronald Stöferle and his team do a fantastic job of explaining gold in a way that anyone can understand. I guess that's why the In Gold We Trust Report is so wildly popular!

FINAL THOUGHTS Obviously, by listening to this episode, you will see I am massively into tracking and understanding the gold markets and how it relates to the financial affairs for Expats around the world. I see this as a worldwide currency that combats out of control governments from completely eroding our wealth.

In this episode of The Expat Money Show, we interview Oliver Wagner to talk about a very controversial subject. That is, how to renounce US citizenship. We get answers to questions like: Why do people renounce their US citizenship? What is an Accidental American? How To Renounce US Citizenship? What are the pros and cons of renouncing US citizenship? What are the tax implications of renouncing US citizenship? and How much does it cost to renounce US citizenship?
Notes on Today's Interview with Oliver Wagner You may be asking yourself, is this for me? Let me tell you, this is not for 99% of the population. However, for a certain portion of my audience, it is extremely valuable.
In my research, I've found a lack of reliable information for American Citizens who want to renounce their citizenship.
We get into details why some people choose to do this and I am not saying people should do this, but for certain Expats, it really does make sense.  Americans are taxed on worldwide income no matter where they live⊠so it can mean tens of thousands of dollars in taxes every year.
I will also tell you that this interview is really dense. It is a Masterclass in how to renounce your citizenship, by a CPA who does this every day, all day.
This interview is so packed full of information I decided to have the entire episode transcribed. This way you can go through it carefully. The transcription is at the bottom of the show notes for today's interview.
Who is Olivier Wagner Today's guest is an IRS Enrolled Agent and CPA (Certified Public Accountant) who specializes in tax services for US expats. He is the best selling author of https://amzn.to/2W4x789 (âU.S. Taxes for Worldly Americans') and with his company, 1040 Abroad, his goal is to eliminate tax anxiety - by helping expatriates become US tax compliant.
Why do people renounce their US citizenship? There are a whole host of reasons people renounce their US citizenship. The main reason is the tax implications.  Oliver Wagner explains that it is often not the taxes themselves that people owe money for. It is the fee from their CPA or accountant who must file their tax return every year.
Add to this all the yearly bureaucratic paperwork that goes into filing your taxes, renouncing your citizenship makes sense.
Make sure to listen in to this complete episode with Olivier Wagner.  Or you can download the transcripts at the bottom of this page to get the full explanation.
What is an Accidental American? Who should consider renouncing their US citizenship? An Accidental American is someone who has dual citizenship and does not live in the USA. Perhaps they never actually lived in the USA at all. They may have been born there or one of their parents are American, so they are subject to citizen-based taxation. Or, as it is often referred to as worldwide taxation.
If you are an American citizen or American green card holder and earn more than $10,000 a year it is your obligation to file a tax return no matter where you live in the world.
If you are an American taxpayer and live as an Expat feel free to fill out the form at the bottom of this page for recommendations on a competent and trustworthy Expat CPA, like Olivier Wagner, who can file your taxes for you. It is worth every penny to hire a great CPA for your Expat taxes. They will help navigate the entire process and can often save you considerable amounts of money, certainly more than you have to pay them.
Once again, it is mandatory to be tax compliant and we are able to help accidental Americans and other American Expats become tax compliant in a straightforward and expert manner.
Although I do not believe the income tax is just or right I never advise anyone to break the law and we do not deal in illegal or shady practices on The Expat Money Show or in any of my writing.  I always encourage people to be tax...

Gregory Diehl has certain things he wants to teach you, the budding author like how to work with an independent publisher. Also in this interview with Gregory Diehl, we discuss how important writing a book can be for your future as an entrepreneur. What it can do for your branding and your authority.
How Can I Write and Publish A Book In this interview with Gregory Diehl, we talk a lot, and I mean a lot about how to write and publish a book. What is needed, what is not important and if you're cut out to write and publish a book.
I know that for many of you listening to our podcast, you've always wanted to write and publish a book. You have so many great ideas, and you're sure that if you could put it on paper, someone would buy.
And I can only assume that for many of you that can come true. But where do you start? What do you need to do? What is a waste of time? In this interview with Gregory Diehl and Mikkel Thorup, all of that is covered and more.
Are book Reviews Important? What a great question Mikkel Thorup asks Gregory Diehl. Are book reviews important? and why? Why is it so important to get book reviews especially as a new author. You may ask 'are they difficult to do' or 'do they take a lot of time'? Gregory explains it all, so don't miss this amazing episode.

In this interview with Bobby Casey, we talk about the definition of an Anarchist and how blockchain and anarchy give you true personal freedom. We also touch on the definition of a Libertarian and what the differences between this and Anarchy is. Bobby Casey is an expat anarchist who believes that blockchain is the way of the future, creating smart contracts for just about anything you want, and a way to replace the government.
Like so many of our guests, at 19 years old, Bobby Casey only lasted 1 year in college before realizing that this was not how he wanted to spend his life, taking 4 years of college to start working for someone else. Coming from an Entrepreneurial family, Bobby Casey was destined to become a leader, to help others live a better life.
After many attempts and failures, Bobby Casey hit a home run with a company that grew into an $8 Million venture. Then something happened that no one saw coming. A new company on the block came along with a new, better software platform. In Bobby Casey's words: they got their asses kicked.  His company, along with a lot of his competitors, could not compete and eventually many of them shut down. By the time these large companies realized that this new company with fantastic software couldn't deliver, it was too late. The good news for Bobby was that he sold his venture for a nice profit.
So with money in hand, he recalled family dinner topics. Like, 'how to properly structure an LLC, asset protection, and investments' Even as a 14-year-old he was part of the family discussions and recalled them later in life realizing that he didn't want to pay high taxes, and wondered how he could protect himself from liability.
The Next Step Bobby Casey talks us through how in 2007, his company Global Wealth Protection came about. Where he started, why it was so important for him and who he works with. As Bobby realized, he needed to plug his holes, so his friends were likely in the same boat.
In this interview with Bobby Casey we spend a ton of time talking about the Blockchain and Anarchy, also:
Crypto Currency
Gold & Silver
Stock Market
Overseas Real estate
Block Chain is the way of the future
Decentralized currency
Smart Contracts
What's the Difference Between a Libertarian and an Anarchist Answer: About 7 years! As Bobby would say! Once you've made the decision to become a Libertarian, it takes 7 years to make the move to being a full-blown Anarchist!
Definition of a Libertarian The definition of a libertarian is a person who believes in free will.
Definition of an Anarchist The definition of an Anarchists are people who want to live under their own authority. They are against having a political party making the rules. Anarchists are extremely peaceful, but when pushed they will take action.
Also, the definition of an anarchist is a person who rebels against any authority, established order, or ruling power.
Blockchain and Anarchy You might be wondering how Blockchain and Anarchy could solve the problems with how governments currently run, so we could move away from traditional government and no longer have lines in the sand.
100 years ago we had around 100 countries; today, we have 193...why?

Jonathan Levi ~ Super Human, Super Powers, Memory Export, SuperLearner~Are you born with these skills? or do you develop them! How to get superpowers anyways?
How about being an entrepreneur? Do you have to work harder and longer than anyone else? or are their 'hacks' for becoming one of the greats in your lifetime? Is there someone you emulate and want to be just like? and have you wondered how they got there?
Can you change YOUR life and become all that you want, without huge sacrifices? or is it possible?
Have you ever wondered if you could become a better boyfriend/girlfriend/spouse? what about a better parent or is it all in the genes we were dealt?
Would you like the skill to get up on stage fearless? write a book? learn how to code? be a mathematician? or do these ideas scare you enough to not even give them a try? Does the thought go through your mind, 'these skills must be for the brave, the fearless, the brainiacs of our time. I couldn't possibly achieve all that's out there'.
How to Get Super Powers Jonathan Levi and Mikkel Thorup talk about all of this. They talk about how to get super human powers and becoming a SuperLearner and that we can all achieve what we most desire. And yes, there is work involved, this is not about a mantra that says, 'I have no fear, I have no fear'. This is about attaining the secret skills that we don't learn in school, that someone like Jonathan Levi and his SuperLearner course can teach you.
Jonathan Levi coined: The intellectual Pigmalian Effect- how others can influence someone's ability. If they believe you are highly intelligent and can get the work done, then you most likely will. The Intellectual Golem Effect - The same effect if they believe you cannot do the job, you won't.
Phrases like:
I'm such a clutz
I'm so bad at math
I never remember names
So the question is: how do people break this pattern, what are the steps to becoming a SuperLearner?
SuperLearner Years ago if you wanted to become an Entrepreneur it was hard. The information wasn't readily accessible. You had to go to the bookstore and hope that someone had written a book on the subject you wanted to learn and you had to trust that they knew what they were talking about.
Today, information is at our fingertips. So much information in fact that if you have the skills that Jonathan Levi teaches, you can become a SuperLearner, a memory expert and superhuman in no time. In this episode, all is revealed. Are these skills important to becoming an entrepreneur? you bet they are!

Michael Michelini started his career out of college on Wall Street and soon realized that entrepreneurship was his calling. 11 years later, his business, Global From Asia, calls Chiang Mai, Thailand home.
In this Interview with Michael Michelini, we chat about:
How to Run an International Business
Best way to meet Expats in China
The Cross-Border Summit
Being an Expat in Chiang Mai
Cross-Border Match Maker
Canton Fair
and so much more!
How to Run an International Business Are you the type of entrepreneur that always wondered what it would be like to have an https://expatmoneyshow.com/jim-cockrum-creating-engaging-content/ (FBA store)? or a Shopify store? And just thought it might be too difficult to build a profitable store online? Then this is the episode for you!
Or are you already successful in the online shopping world? Do you have a profitable store but have no real say in how the products are manufactured and delivered? Then this too is the episode for you!
Michael Michelini and Mikkel Thorup talk about how to best start in this space. What needs to happen, meeting the suppliers in China, branding, and plain old hand-holding. Michael Michelini started his business in Hong Kong, China. After 11 years he has mastered the ins and outs of how to effectively and efficiently work alongside the factories in China so that you, the import/export company can easily create the products that suit your needs.
Most of us would be afraid of the language barrier, the thousands of factories to choose from, and the fear of trying to communicate with the shop owners. Michael Michelini understood those issues when he first started his business and is here to help guide you through the process.
How To Meet Expats In China Living in the USA his entire life, having school friends and work colleagues, moving to Hong Kong meant that Michael had to learn to socialize with the locals, or find new expat friends. We discuss where Michael Michelini found his new tribe; was it difficult; and is that where he met his wife?
Meet another Expat in China in this interview with https://expatmoneyshow.com/rico-ngoma-how-to-source-products-in-china-for-drop-shipping/ (Rico Ngmoa), we also dive deep into the Canton Fair and talk about how to safely judge a manufacturing plant who builds your products.
Cross Border Summit For the last 3 years, Michael Michelini has held his Cross Border Summit, in Shenzhen, China, in conjunction with the Canton Fair. (Listen in as Michael describes what the Canton Fair is all about!!)  Their Cross Border Summit is for anyone interested in, but not excluding:
how to sell on Amazon
selling E-commerce
sourcing products and buying from China and selling in different countries
This Cross Border Summit is for the newbie and the experienced buyer. There are dozens of experts and a roundtable discussion to chat with your favourite expert.
Cross Border Summit 2019 will be held in Cartegena, Columbia on March 7th & 8th with a Mastermind Event on the 6th. For more information and to purchase tickets: https://www.globalfromasia.com/cross-border-summit-colombia/ (www.crossbordersummit.com/columbia) .

Mike Cobb is the Co-Founder of ECI Development, that does International Real Estate Developments in Central America and the Caribbean with a lot of the focus these days being investments in Belize and investment in Nicaragua. Mike and his family lived as Expats in Managua, Nicaragua for 14 years before returning to the States. They went there for business and stayed there by choice.
International Real Estate Mike Cobb is extremely passionate about what opportunities the country has for Expat Entrepreneurs and International Real Estate!  Have you ever wondered how someone from the USA could end up living and working in Central America? What would the draw be and why would you stay? This is the episode to listen to if Central America is where you've contemplated investing, retiring or a little of both.
When Mike Cobb starting building communities in Central America, they believed that their market would be for investors to buy and to rent out as vacation homes. This was true until the baby boomers decided they could have it both ways. They could buy International Real Estate, rent out 6 months of the year and pay down their mortgage.  Then as 'snow birds' spend the winter months in a fabulous community in a country that offers a high standard of living with a low cost of living.
Time Machine & Path of Progress Mikk Cobb, what does that mean? Time Machine & Path of Progress? If you could go back 20 years and see how the path of progress was, you'd be rich. I'm sure many of you have dreamt about the 'what if's' If I only knew what the economy would be like. You still have time with an investment in Belize or an investment in Nicaragua.
Investment in Belize Let's talk about investments in Belize and the time machine & path of Progress. In Belize, you're likely going back in time about 5-10 years. If you're talking about Nicaragua, it's more like 20 years. It truly is the best time to make an investment in Belize.
Are you interested in an investment in Belize? Mike Cobb discusses what is available, what life is like in Belize and what you can expect from your investment in Belize.
Are you an early baby boomer? Do you find yourself wondering if you've saved enough money to have the life you're accustomed to in the US or Canada? If not, again, this is the episode that is so important to give a listen to.
Offshore Banking in Belize Are you an American or Canadian entrepreneur? with a viable business and paying high taxes? Let's talk about offshore banking in Belize.  Life in Belize is warm and sunny most of the year. Crime is low, medical care is fantastic, in fact, they welcome medical tourism. Therefore, the real question is 'why would you stay in your home country when you can set up offshore banking in Belize and pay next to nothing in taxes and have a lower cost of living and a higher quality of life'. I know that sounds like a paradox, but it's true.
Investment in Nicaragua Talking about investment in Nicaragua, Mike Cobb and his partner have been at this a long time and have built their company ECI from the ground up. They know what they are talking about and are an integral part of helping to develop a country so that Americans & Canadians have a resource to follow through on.
For those of you who are interested in an investment in Nicaragua, an investment in Belize or Offshore Banking in Belize, don't miss this episode with Mike Cobb & Mikkel Thorup.
Mike Cobb & Mikkel Thorup reminisce about what life is like living in Nicaragua with a full-time maid for $200 - $300 a month, having a coffee sack full of organic vegetables & fruits delivered to your front door every week for $8 and going to the movies for $2. Life is peaceful, safe and this may surprise many of you, they have international hospitals, so medical care is on par with the US or Canada.

New Opportunity For Subscribers of The Expat Money Show Mikkel Thorup digs deep into Electric Vehicle Metals and a special report made just for you, the Investor and Expat Entrepreneur. To download this free report go to https://expatmoneyshow.com/evm/...
Gregor Gregersen is the CEO and founder of https://www.silverbullion.com.sg?RI=S9314 (Silver Bullion Pte Ltd). A gold bullion and silver bullion Singapore dealer as well as The Safe House. A Singaporean Vault company for many types of precious metals; including electric vehicle metals.
Gregor Gregersen has lived as an Expat for nearly 38 years, and he actually gave up his German passport to become a Singaporean citizen. In this interview, we talk about why Gregor chose this country to build his vault for gold bullion and silver bullion Singapore and how this led to electric vehicle metals.
What are "Electric Vehicle Metals"? The Electric Vehicle Metals I am referring to are the metals that go into the batteries that power electric cars. These are precious metals and bullion of high grade. They are used in the manufacturing process and compose the bulk of the batteries themselves.
Why Should we care about Electric Vehicle Metals and Batteries? Electric vehicle batteries are becoming too cheap to ignore. In the past 4 years, production costs for EV batteries have fallen by over 70%, thanks to investments from major automakers. Elon Musk thinks that these costs will fall a further 20% by 2020. That would make these batteries cheaper to produce than internal combustion engines.
Special Report on Electric Vehicle Metals After recording the interview with Gregor Gregorson I got massively interested in the topic of electric vehicle metals as an investment.
I took everything I learned from Gregor plus a couple of hundred hours of research and I compiled it down into a special report. In this special report, I break down why electric vehicle metals is a space you should really be paying attention to, what the opportunities are, what the pitfalls are and most importantly how you can get involved. I think you will see that the world is changing, fortunes are being made and by the time you hear about it on mainstream media it will be too late and you will have missed your chance.
In my daily life, I travel the world searching for unique opportunities, I put an intense amount of due diligence in my research and when I find something really extraordinary I share it with my subscribers.
This is one of those times...
I was thinking about charging for this special report on electric vehicle metalsâŠ. Maybe $97 or $197 or maybe it will be part of a paid subscription newsletter I am working on, I have not decided yet...
In the meantime I don't want to delay, this is timely information and I want to get this special report into your hands as fast as possible⊠therefore I will let you have a copy of it for free for being a loyal listener of this podcast.
If you really want to dig into electric vehicle metals as an investment; to learn about the opportunities, how to protect your investment and what the exact steps are to get started in the most profitable way possible you can download your copy of the report for free by clicking https://expatmoneyshow.com/evm/ (HERE.)
What Does Gregor Gregersen Store in his Singaporean Vault https://www.silverbullion.com.sg?RI=S9314 (Silver Bullion) Singapore holds all types of precious metals including gold bullion, silver bullion, platinum bullion. They buy, sell and test all types of bullion. And of course, as we talk about in this interview electric vehicle metals.
Conversations on Commodities With Gregor Gregersen I find conversations on commodities like electric vehicle metals really fascinating. I have been speculating on things like this for nearly 10 years now. Sufficed to say a lot of work goes into understanding this.
In the coming months, I will be writing more on investment topics like this. I am working on a paid newsletter where every month you will receive a special report detailing timely opportunities that I uncover in my journey around the...
Rico Ngoma grew up in Canada and at a very young age realized being an expat entrepreneur was in his blood. After a trip to China and seeing the difficulty with finding how to source products in China for drop shipping and how to do business in China, Rico realized that he could assist other entrepreneurs on how to find a good manufacturer in China.
Rico Ngoma talks to us about his life since 2014 living and working in Guangzhou, China. With 24 Million people and thousands of factories, most would find it almost impossible to navigate, especially with the language barrier. China is not like most countries where English is spoken in most parts of the country. To survive in China, one must learn even the basics of Mandarin just to survive. Rico found a small expat entrepreneur community in Guangzhou, which has helped him to feel more at home.
Source Find Asia is Rico's company. He explains to Mikkel how they are problem solvers for those that want to learn:
How to do business in China
How to source products in China for drop shipping
And how to find a good manufacturer in China.
Rico Explains How to do Business in China Rico Ngoma and Mikkel Thorup chat about how to do business in China and the concept that China is a great source for drop shipping, but where do you start? who do you trust? These questions and more, from someone that knows how to source products in China for dropshipping.
Rico Ngoma tells us the difference between a Trading Company and a Factory. Rico recounts some pretty funny stories about when they first started Source Find Asia. He claims that you must be a detective to really understand how the buying works in China.
How to Find a Good Manufacturer in China Rico Ngoma chats about how to find a good manufacturer in China and how to source products in China for drop shipping and all the pitfalls that can happen if you're not aware of the many different areas that need to be covered when you want to learn how to source products in China for dropshipping.

FINAL THOUGHTS Super interesting episode with Rico Ngoma. I previously understood some of the intricacies of drop shipping, but Rico really helped me to realize that what is the most important part of the process is having a company that speaks your language, that you can trust to get the job done, and having someone in your corner!

Jeff Haden author of The Motivation Myth spent over 20 years in manufacturing when he realized he really didn't love what he was doing. Over the next few years, he learned different skills to create a job for himself in the ghostwriting arena. Some may ask? What is ghostwriting? Why do people hire a ghostwriter? and where do you find a ghostwriter?
What is Ghostwriting? Ghostwriting is when someone is hired to write literary or journalistic works, speeches, or other texts that are officially credited to another person as the author. Celebrities, executives, and political leaders often hire ghostwriters to draft or edit their autobiographies, memoirs, or a book they have an idea for.
Why Do People Hire A Ghostwriter? In this interview with Jeff Haden, he explains it this way: You get an offer to write a weekly column on a certain subject, but you either don't have the time nor the talent, so you hire someone to write for you, and they sign your name to the work. Often someone is in a field with expertise that everyone wants to hear about. The problem is that you are a terrible writer, but a fantastic expert. You hire a ghostwriter to clean up and polish your idea.
Where Do You Find A Ghostwriter? Jeff Haden and Mikkel Thorup talk opening about where do you find a ghostwriter? It's actually quite simple. Use sites like UpWork, Freelancer and BloggingPro, to name just a few.
One of the key takeaways from Jeff Haden was to hire someone that has written before, been paid for it, and does it daily. Jeff has written 70 books as a ghostwriter...I'd say...hire Jeff Haden if you want a book that is professionally written.
The Motivation Myth Jeff Haden's book, The Motivation Myth, overturns the beloved (but false) idea that motivation leads to success, instead, small successes lead to constant motivation - and let you achieve your biggest goals while also having more fun.
In short, motivation isnât something you get â motivation is something you create.
Listen as Jeff and Mikkel go through several concepts in the book, The Motivation Myth. Jeff breaks down some of his controversial ideas and helps us to understand that what's been drilled into us since we first started in the workforce are actually false.
What is a Serial Achiever Jeff Haden and Mikkel Thorup talk about how we CAN do more than 1 thing in life, and that we LOVE doing more than 1 thing. We spend our early adulthood pursuing a career that we believe we will stay at for the rest of our lives.
After 15 years we decide to move on to something different. We go back to school, we learn everything that is required and then we pursue that career. That may happen several times in our life, and that's perfectly fine. In fact, in this Interview with Jeff Haden, he encourages people to add the word 'AND' to your elevator pitch.
You don't have to be just one thing;Â you can be several;Â like a photographer AND a writer.
That's part of life that gives us character and depth.

Edmund John From Flag Theory has embarked on a new platform and in this episode, Mikkel Thorup delves deep into what is KYC & AML and how KYC Chain is using blockchain technology to solve problems they face. We then give an in-depth review of Flag Theory and explain what is Flag Theory.
What is Flag Theory - A Review of Flag Theory Some of you may be asking 'what is Flag Theory'? Here is a review of Flag Theory. It was created about 50 years ago and it started with 5 flags:
Passport
Residency
Company https://expatmoneyshow.com/offshore-company-registration/ ((Check Out Our Services On Offshore Company Formation))
Bank Account
Physical Assets
Edmund John from Flag Theory has added 2 more:
Digital Security
Digital Assets https://expatmoneyshow.com/tag/cryptocurrency/ ((Additional Episodes With Cryptocurrency Founders))
Listen in to the episode now as we review Flag Theory and how all 7 Flags work to give you more control over your life.
What is KYC & AML Edmund John From Flag Theory explains KYC: Know Your Customer & AML: Anti Money Laundering.
For decades there has been an issue with collecting personal data and how it is stored, and most important: can it be hacked. Often times as Expats we need KYC & AML for a host of different reasons, including; sending funds abroad, buying real estate or investments and getting residency or second citizenship in a new country.
If a person with malicious intent intercepts this KYC & AML pack and it contains your passport copy, utility bills, birth record, SIN or Personal Identity Number, bank account details and a host of other things they really can take control of your life...
How KYC Chain Is Using Blockchain Technology To Solve Problems Edmund John from Flag Theory talks about Selfkey, A Self-Sovereign Identity system that empowers individuals to find more Freedom and Privacy through the full ownership of their digital identity.
And Edmund John from Flag Theory founded KYC Chain a blockchain based technology that is solving problems (explained above) by securing your sensitive data, removing redundancies making for a more user-friendly and secure environment. To learn more, you'll want to listen to the entire episode!

Final Thoughts Super interesting conversation with Edmund John from Flag Theory. We broke down, what is Flag Theory? We then had a review of Flag Theory and really talked about each flag specifically. But we had to start at the beginning and talked about what is KYC & AML, topics that are a must for those that are concerned about how your own country is dealing with their economy.

James Guzman is an American Expat living in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. He is an expert on how to start a vacation rental business, and specifically, how to start an Airbnb in Mexico and Airbnb as an Expat. James Guzman and Mikkel Thorup talk about short-term rentals when it comes to how to start an Airbnb in Mexico.  Are short-term rentals more beneficial than long term? Are the risks different? If you've ever considered how to start a vacation rental business, then this is the episode for you.  How to Start a Vacation Rental BusinessWe have all heard about Airbnb and how it has revolutionized the lodging and accommodation world of travel, and you probably know someone that puts their home on this site when they are away on vacation to maybe recoup some of their expenses while they are away. However, have you ever considered renting properties and then turning around and advertising on Airbnb? Did you know that you don't have to own the property? As long as the landlord is aware of what your plan looks like, there is no reason for them to say no. This and many other ideas are discussed in this fun episode on how to start a vacation rental business. As mentioned, Airbnb has changed the face of short-term rentals forever. How did they get so big? so quickly? and you must be asking yourself, what kind of software do they use and can I use it too? Listen in as James Guzman explains the software they use for efficiency and speed.  Starting a Business in Mexico as an Expat and How to Start an Airbnb in MexicoWe also talk about the demographics of his short-term rentals and how to start an Airbnb in Mexico. Because James Guzman lives in Mexico, of course, it is much simpler, as he can keep an eye on his business, but you can start an Airbnb anywhere. The concepts are the same all across the globe. Here are a few ideas discussed: Platforms and Software Access to the property/keys How to earn more income from your properties What to do during slow seasons What does a 'Full Vacation' look like Challenges of owning your own business
What To Consider When you Start a Vacation Rental BusinessIs your city safe? Clean? What about the culture? the food? Why do people come to your city? What kind of return can I expect? Vacancy rates? All this and more is discussed!
James Guzman on EducationMost of our listeners are aware of our passion here on the Expat Money Show regarding the current state of the education system in North America and the trend towards homeschooling and world schooling. James Guzman and Mikkel Thorup discuss this hot topic. Many of our past guests discuss this same topic, listen in to https://expatmoneyshow.com/zak-slayback-learn-from-a-career-expert-how-to-land-your-dream-job/ (Ep 37: Zak Slayback) or to https://expatmoneyshow.com/sam-mcroberts-how-to-internationalize-your-life-so-you-can-protect-your-wealth-and-protect-your-family/ (Ep 43: Sam McRoberts) who currently owns and operates his business as an expat and world schools his son.  We all know how much Mikkel loves to talk about travel and the experiences learned from each country. Today's episode was no different. Mikkel and James Guzman chat in detail about Medellin & the country of Colombia. Mikkel spent quite a bit of time there when he first started his travels and speaks kindly about the people, the food and the culture. James Guzman would agree!  Best Way to Reach James Guzmanhttp://www.borderlessblog.com/ (www.borderlessblog.com)  Final ThoughtsI really didn't know much about Airbnb myself, so I learned a great deal from James Guzman. It really is a great business model for those interested in learning how to start a vacation rental business. James has some great insights and totally worth listening in.

Sam McRoberts, with family in tow, left behind his home country of USA to travel the world and unschool his 7-year-old son.  We talk in depth about how to internationalize your life, how to protect your wealth and most importantly, how to protect your family.
About Sam McRoberts Sam McRoberts is the successful CEO of VUDU Marketing, where he consults with medium to large size companies and influencers on SEO. They audit websites, figuring out what's right and wrong, what needs to be fixed to increase organic traffic and helping people put together strategies so they know what to do to dominate their space.
As Sam McRoberts and his family travel the world, the most important thing he requires is a good internet connection, and from there, he can run his company. VUDU Marketing is his bread & butter, but that's not the only company Sam operates.
Sam realized in the beginning; when he was trying to learn SEO; that no one taught it, so that became his mission, to teach other people how to get the job done easily. Sam walks us through what that looks like and how SEO works.
https://www.amazon.com/Screw-Zoo-Escape-Your-World/dp/0996154906/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1536594495&sr=8-1&keywords=screw+the+zoo (Screw the Zoo), Sam McRoberts book is another way he has helped to monetize his adventurous travel. Listen as everything is woven together to make life as an expat easier and for more fun!
How To Internationalize Your Life We then delve into how to internationalize your life. Besides education, how to internationalize your life is the biggest topic we discuss here on our podcast. More and more people are compelled to learn how this is done, and how easy it can be if you follow some simple rules and talk to people that know what needs to be done before you leave your home country.
We've realized that to pay big corporate taxes is just not necessary anymore.  If you are traveling the world, why do you have to pay for the roads to be fixed and for schools in a neighbourhood that you no longer live in?
How To Protect Your Wealth Once you've learned how to internationalize your life, it's time to learn how to protect your wealth. You're making big bucks so you need to protect your wealth. We chat quite a bit about this topic, because if you live in the USA or Canada, the taxes are outrageous and what's left can be a lot less than if you know how to internationalize your life and then protect your family.
How To Protect Your Family Sam McRoberts and Mikkel Thorup both love their family. Family first! Do you know how to protect your family? Are you interested in learning how to protect your family, and how to internationalize your life, then this episode is a must listen to.
What is Unschooling Have you been wondering what is unschooling? Sam McRoberts gives his definition of homeschooling compared to unschooling and it's right on the money. Mikkel and Sam spend at least 1/3 of the episode delving into education, what's wrong with our current system and answering the question, what is unschooling?
In https://expatmoneyshow.com/jim-cockrum-creating-engaging-content/ (Ep 029: Jim Cockrum) talks about what is unschooling and how happy his children are because they chose this type of education.

Things to do Before Moving Overseas Matt Javit and Mikkel Thorup really dig deep and discuss all of the things to do before moving overseas. It wasn't a simple pack up and go. They own a home full of furniture; had 2 cars; jobs; friends...well, they had to plan ahead. An exit plan was in order and because everyone is different a well thought out plan was crucial. Matt discusses his exit plan and all the things to do before moving overseas.
Next Came the Guide to Moving Abroad Matt Javit along with his wife Nikki set out the guide to moving abroad. What had to happen for them to make a seamless transition. Where would they go? For how long? Matt talks about how he bought their first one-way ticket to South America...and then their second one-way ticket to Europe. It all started to come together. Matt had to tell his boss...what a great story this is!
Tips for Living Abroad Mikkel and Matt Javit laugh about the lessons they have both learned because of living overseas and their tips for living abroad. They both agree that life is never the same once you leave your safe job, a safe home, and safe friends. Your mind will never be the same. If you have ever wanted to leave your life behind, in this interview you'll get fantastic tips for living abroad.

Oren Klaff is the author of Pitch Anything, which has sold well over 1,000,000 copies and he has trained over 80,000 people using the Oren Klaff Pitch Anything Method. Oren has raised over 2 Billion in Capital, so who better to learn from when you have an idea to pitch or you want to know how to raise capital. Why would you go in alone? Doesn't make any sense. Oren Klaff recounts how he would pitch, well, anything!
Oren Klaff tells us that techniques like the Pitch Anything Method come about from pain, misery, frustration, confusion, alcohol consumption, moving to the desert, living in a trailer living with a 3 legged dog and saying 'Where did I go wrong' hahaha...but I totally understand. If the systems you've been working with so far; the conventional systems we've all been taught on how to pitch a deal or to stand in front of a CEO and ask for money; are not working, then systems and techniques need to be created out of necessity.
Starting a Business Overseas Oren Klaff talks directly to our audience, the Location Independent Entrepreneur. What is that you need to know? How a deal you want to pitch can ultimately work and how to raise capital. We all know there are international business opportunities and that starting a business overseas, with these techniques created by Oren Klaff and Pitch Anything, you are more likely to succeed.
What do you need to know first? Frame Control It's important to understand what Frame Control is:Â The Ability to see the world in terms of frames. And a frame is just someone's perspective (there is Mikkels favourite word again) on how they see things.
Time Frame We talk about how to make the deal more likely to happen. A Timeframe is directly related to frame control. Listen in to this episode. Oren Klaff and Mikkel Thorup talk in great length about frame control and time frame and if you don't have this down right, your chances of bringing in that big deal or raising capital are very slim.
Ideas & Concepts We Talk About
Why people will do a deal with you and why they won't
Is rapport important
How can you raise your status to that of a peer and why this technique is so important
How to NOT fall into the Beta trap
International Business Opportunities
Wolves???
3 Major Takeaways
People want what they can't have
People chase that which moves away from them
and People only value that which they pay for
How can I reach Oren Klaff? Go to Amazon or Audibles and get his book Pitch Anything in audiobook form. Oren himself reads it and it truly is one of the best books I've ever read.

Mike Michalowicz author of Profit First, is a man on a mission: Eradicate Entrepreneurial Poverty! In 2008, Mike lost everything through what he calls arrogance & ignorance. Listen as Mike recounts his story of how his 9-year-old daughter wanted to 'provide for her family'.
Profit First We talked about Mike Michalowicz's book: Profit First. He states that you should give your accountant this book, as they know your business. Mike told me that there are over 300 members certified worldwide in Profit First Accounting and they are working hand in hand with Entrepreneurs. If you are looking for a fantastic tax accounting agency, directly dealing with American Expats, listen to Mikkel's interview with https://expatmoneyshow.com/david-mckeegan-expat-entrepreneur/ (EP 032: David McKeegan), it's awesome!

It Takes Money to Make Money As Mike Michalowicz states: 'whoever said this is a jerk!' This statement is absolutely false. Are you asking, 'how do I make money with less money?' Listen to the episode and you'll learn this most valuable lesson.
Do you Have a Healthy Business? Can you change your mindset to take Profit First? Is your company a powerhouse in your industry? How can I tell if I have a healthy business? Mike helps us to understand these concepts in the books he has authored.
Topics we Discuss in Detail
It's not how much you make! It's how much you take!
Cash equity - What is that?
Okay, now that I have some Profit Built-up, now what?
Can you take a 4-week vacation and not have your business fall apart?
Clockwork: Design Your Business to Run Itself I really wanted to discuss Mike Michalowicz's Clockwork Book. Q: What does Oxygen have to do with Sales? Find out more! The Clockwork Book teaches us how to design our business to run itself and how to remove the business owner from the business so it can survive on its own. Does that appeal to you? It did to me!

In this Interview with Zak Slayback, we talk about how important being coachable is and that it's not so much about what he can add to your business structure, rather what he can take away so that you land your dream job while teaching you the proper skills of writing the perfect email and how to create your attractive character.
Zak Slayback was the perfect student. He got great grades, got into an Ivy League College but didn't know what he wanted to do. Do you find yourself here too? Maybe you're in University or College, maybe you never went and are out working somewhere that you hate and don't really know how to get out of that rut.
Writing Proper Emails Listen in to this episode as Zak Slayback takes us through the many steps that are required to find the job that you want and how to write proper emails so that the correct person will take the time to read your resume.
Have you ever sat down and tried to write the perfect email? and when you thought you had it nailed, you sent it out and no one replied? Zak lets us in on some secrets of making sure your email gets to the right person and they get read. If you can conquer these two items, your chances of getting hired go way up!
Zak Slayback on Creating Your Dream Job Career Expert What does a Career Expert do you might ask. Zak Slayback really goes into detail on who he feels is qualified to work with him. Not everyone is a good fit, and there are so many people out in the field of self-development and working with young entrepreneurs that you really have to find that perfect fit.  Zak tells me that he doesn't do LIFE COACH STUFF! AT the end of the day Zak is a communicator, sales, and career expert.
Listen in as Zak & Mikkel discuss
The Trust Factor
Attractive Character
Call to Action (CTA)

The Big 5 Copywriting voices (which one are you?)
Zak Slayback on Education 37 episodes of The Expat Money Show and time and time again we talk about education. Without realizing it, almost 1/2 of our guests have some form of opinion on what has happened in the world regarding education. In https://expatmoneyshow.com/clara-day-herrera/ (Ep 004: Clara Day Herrera) talks about her daughter and the education system in the Philippines. Zak Slayback talks about the USA and here is a direct quote:
'School should have taught you how to succeed at work and build a great career. Instead, it taught you that mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell. Thankfully, I teach what school never taught'
I love it because it's true. If you listened to https://expatmoneyshow.com/michelle-dale-location-independent/ (Ep 034: Michelle Dale) she'll tell you the same thing. Life is about doing, getting out there and learning the skills required to be a professional. Attending College or University doesn't always give you the skills to make sure you know what you're doing once you've received that diploma. Zak Slayback realized this a long time ago and has built a system to help those that are stuck in a job they hate.
Short Cuts to Success Have you ever wondered if there really is such a thing as a shortcut to success? People talk about it, but does it really exist? Yes, Virginia, it does exist! Zak goes into detail about the methods he uses, you can shortcut success ethically and morally!
We've had many wonderful guests on our show that let you in on the secrets of success. Like in  https://expatmoneyshow.com/mindy-stern/ (Ep 020: Mindy Stern) - What learning from the best coaches can do for you, today we have Zak Slayback on helping ambitious people get ahead in their careers.
Zak Slayback's New Book 'How to Get Ahead' will be out early next year. If you've ever written your own book, you know how much hard work and effort is necessary to build a really successful, worth-reading book. I believe that Zak has the tenacity and fortitude to...
In this Interview with Jim Rogers, I get updated opinions on everything from North Korea and China to the Mandarin language and the current state of education around the world. Jim Rogers tells me what he is teaching his own children and where he as an investor is putting his own money today.  Jim Rogers is a world-renowned investor, famously known for his co-founding of the Quantum Fund. He has frequently appeared on CNBC, Fox Business and Bloomberg. He is a multiple best selling author and has multiple Guinness world records for his around the world trips visiting nearly every country on the planet. (listen in to hear which countries he has yet to visit!)  Jim Rogers Talks about his Current thoughts on EducationOn this episode of The Expat Money Show, Jim Rogers and Mikkel Thorup talk in depth about education, specifically about their children and what kind of education they believe will propel them forward in this new and most difficult time. Jim writes in one of his earlier books why moving to China or another Asian country is such a vital move for parents. If you really want to give your children an unfair advantage, the education system in Singapore or China is rigorous and difficult, unlike schools in the USA.  As with many of the guests, education is such an important topic. To hear from another multimillionaire entrepreneur on education listen to this fantastic interview with https://expatmoneyshow.com/jim-cockrum-creating-engaging-content/ (Jim Cockrum.)  Jim Rogers spent most of his adult life not wanting children. He believed children were a horrible waste of time, energy, money and everything else, feeling sorry for people who had children, so he was not ever going to do it. Jim now believes everyone should have children and that he was just wrong for not having them earlier in his life.  In 2002, arriving back home in NYC after completing his third Guinness World Record being on the road for 3 years, covering more than 245,000 kilometres in a one-of-a-kind Mercedes-Benz taking them to six continents and 116 countries, they decided to have children.  Jim Rogers claims this was the best decision of his life. His two girls are now the center of his universe, in fact, his 2009: A Gift to My Children book was written for his daughters. Listen in to hear about why he wrote this most special gift to his children. This may spark some creativity in yourself for your children to follow!  Jim Rogers Opinion on MandarinMikkel and Jim discuss in lengths about what they believe the most important languages their children should speak. Due to the fact that Jim and his family live in Singapore, his two daughters are fluent in Mandarin and have actually won awards for the best Mandarin Speakers in the Nation. Jim believes that this is the second most important language to learn, behind English.  In https://expatmoneyshow.com/mikkel-thorup/ (Ep: 025 Mikkel) shares his own opinions about China and Mandarin and what he is doing in his own life to prepare.  Jim Rogers Books1994: Investment Biker: Around the World with Jim Rogers 2003: Adventure Capitalist: The Ultimate Road Trip 2004: Hot Commodities: How Anyone Can Invest Profitably in the World's Greatest Market 2009: A Gift to My Children: A Father's Lessons For Life and Investing 2013: Street Smarts: Adventures on the Road and in the Markets
Jim Rogers talks about the possibility of a new bookIs there a new book on the horizon? What would the topic be? Jim promised Mikkel that the next time he was in Singapore to bring his copies of his book (He has all of them!) and he would be happy to sign them! Iâm pretty confident that Mikkel will hold him to his word!! Jim's wife Paige has written her own book called 'Don't Call Me Mrs. Rogers' which will be due out in September. Maybe when Mikkel visits Singapore Paige will...
Ben Hammersley is a futurist, but that's not how he started his career some 20 years ago. Similar to so many of us, his career path has evolved into something he absolutely loves as he helps companies and individuals create a more productive and effective workspace.
Let's start with the obvious..what is a Futurist? and why is it so important in our daily lives and in our businesses?
FUTURIST 'a person who studies the future and makes predictions about it based on current trends' Â
Today on the http://www.expatmoneyshow.com/ (Expat Money Show) Ben Hammersley and Mikkel Thorup discuss what a futurist might do for Big Corporate America who thinks they're ready to implement artificial intelligence and how you yourself can change your life radically using concepts that Ben will teach you.
Ben describes what most companies want for the future. They see their business as moving forward and being innovative and being companies of the future. But in reality, they are still using fax machines, their staff don't know how to use the systems that are currently in place properly, and in most cases, the systems they do have in place are old and antiquated. So wanting to move into the future really takes going back into the past and moving them into the present. If you work for a company that this sounds familiar, or you own a company and see yourself here, then this is the episode for you.
FUTURISM Futurism is a fascinating topic and I believe that most of you will really love this episode.
When it's time to implement changes in your life. Ask yourself these two questions first:
What problem am I solving by doing this action (the why?)
If I was to be solving this problem today, but I was doing it for the 1st time and I was using modern tools how would I do it?
Imagine that you change 2-3 things a month in your life. That's 36 things a year! WOW! Year after year, implementing new strategies that help to bring you up today and into the future.
Ben is hired by large companies and governments to talk about using AI and to bring them into the future. After he stops rolling his eyes, he tells them they can't use AI, you can't even use 'Outlook' properly!
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE Mikkel gets Ben to reveal what are the biggest companies that have welcomed AI and innovating in a way that will take them into the future seamlessly. I'm sure none of you will be surprised! And who are the companies that have refused to move forward? Again, no surprises!
IN A NUTSHELL What an interesting chat Ben and I had. I thought for sure we were going to talk about artificial intelligence and the big monolithic theory, when in fact we talked about the micro changes that can be made in our everyday lives and in our business.
BEN'S WORDS TO LIVE BY: Pay attention to what's happening day to day and be responsible for your life!

Michelle Dale is the creator of Virtual Miss Friday, an online Virtual Assistants company that helps entrepreneurs realize their dreams starting with what Michelle would say is the most important aspect of a successful business: Mindset. Michelle equates working on mindset and being an entrepreneur as one in the same.
Specializing in digital product sales and working with 6 and 7 figure earners, Michelle has spent a considerable amount of time crafting her trade and loves working with the location independent contractors by helping them scale up using virtual assistants in smart and creative ways.
Today on the http://www.expatmoneyshow.com (Expat Money Show) Michelle Dale and Mikkel Thorup walk down the path of what it takes to be a successful location independent entrepreneur. What are the steps that need to happen, how do they happen and why? And specifically why mindset is the key to all success!
GOING IT ALONE! Listen in to hear what Michelle Dale does with clients to get them ready for their online success. She understands that it can't be done alone, and why would you want to do it alone?
This theme seems to come up time and time again. Don't go it alone. Get help from the professionals that do the job you don't want to do, like Facebook ads, YouTube, SEO, Marketing, whatever that job is there is someone out there that usually does it better than you.
Maybe you are wondering where on earth would I find support staff that is knowledgeable, honest and trustworthy, and willing to work for me for a decent wage? Look no further! Michelle lets us in on the secrets of hiring a top-notch freelancer!
BUSINESS MODEL The virtual assistants business model is brilliant. If you are tired of trying to create an online digital marketing company, or are tired of living in your country of birth and want that amazing life as an expat entrepreneur, don't miss this episode.
WHAT LIFE IS LIKE BEING AN EXPAT ENTREPRENEUR Mikkel Thorup and Michelle Dale talk about being expat entrepreneurs and how similar their paths have been and how they got to be where there are today using the skills they have learned along the way. They both credit their success to being creative and thinking outside the box, and how they chose not to follow the conventional rules of education.
Michelle is a native Brit but left when she was 24 to pursue her dream of travelling the globe. We talk in depth about what it took for her to leave her home in the UK, to pack her bags and make that crucial decision to not buy a return ticket home, to make her crazy idea of living and working outside her country of birth a reality.
INSPIRATIONAL STORIES Michelle tells us stories of her families travels, the places they have lived and worked and the excitement. When her family decides it's time to move and start a new chapter in their lives, one filled with excitement and passion, people ask her how her children feel about selling everything they own other than a few suitcases of their personal effects and set out for the unknown.
Most of you would be surprised to hear that it is her children, all 3 of them, that get the urge to leave their home and travel and make a new home for themselves somewhere new. They love the travel, the food, the culture just as much as Michelle and her husband do!
That was so inspiring to hear. We always worry about how our children will be affected by the changes we make in our lives, but time and time again we hear the same stories, about how resilient our children are, and how they love the adventure and learning about a new country. They love learning by being immersed in the culture and they are happy and well adjusted.
Michelle talks about her love of Egypt. The people, the culture, the smells...and as her and her family travel the world, living and working in several countries around the globe,...

LIFE BEFORE THE INTERNET?? Have you ever wondered what life was like before the internet? Before https://expatmoneyshow.com/greg-rollett-video-marketing/ (YouTube sensations), Adsense, and computers and there was only TV, News and a typewriter? And to travel as an entrepreneur travel writer was considerably more expensive and time-consuming.

EXPAT ENTREPRENEURS It doesn't surprise me how many people leave their home to travel, to see the world and to educate themselves and their family. Many just want to travel, but a lot of our listeners will attest to this, they find their home country is heavily taxing them and their freedom could be in jeopardy.
LIVING OUTSIDE YOUR COUNTRY OF BIRTH Many Americans have figured out they can live somewhere else and not in the USA. Tim and his family live part-time in Mexico and part-time in Florida. In this interview, we talk about a number of benefits to living outside your country of birth and how you really can make life work on your terms.

James Ellsmoor is a Social Entrepreneur with expertise in renewable energy, sustainable innovation and entrepreneurship in rural, remote and island regions. He has experience living, working and travelling in over 40 countries.
James lives a fascinating life helping Small Islands Developing States (SIDS). There are about 50 different jurisdictions around the globe. James has found that entrepreneurship in these countries is strong and itâs what drives these small nations. Take a look at Jamaica and the impact this small country has had on North America. Their music, their food, their athletes. As a Canadian, and we love our Reggae music, our curry goat and Jamaican patties and Red Stripe beer!
Whatâs really impressive is that James is a Forbes 30 under 30 winner and top 100 most powerful young entrepreneurs under 25. This guy is smart and creative. And for an entrepreneur thatâs the winning ticket!!
As most of you know, I love to travel. I love to experience what the locals experience and chatting with James really got me interested in so many places that I have never had the pleasure of visiting, and now are on my list of countries to see . My reasons are very different than most, and James agrees, what he finds fascinating is also different.
We dove deep into what renewable energy looks like. Is it the same for each area? Does Jamaica require the same as Samoa? Or Guyana? What do countries like this require to be self-sufficient, with their government, the infrastructure and food crops?
SOLAR HEAD OF STATE James and his company, Solar Head of State, tried to put solar panels on the White House, which is how his company name came to be. James and his team work with countries to reduce their carbon footprint, teach them about renewable energy and sustainable energy. Iâm just really happy that someone is working with these smaller nations. Their electricity costs are extremely high and their incomes are extremely low so letâs work on bringing them closer together.
HOW DOES RENEWABLE ENERGY IMPACT AGRICULTURE? I truly believe that we all need to understand the impact of using renewable energy can make on the countries we visit. So many of these small nations Import 90% of their food because itâs cheaper to buy chickens from China than to grow them locally. So, in the end, these countries rely heavily on canned food even tho itâs a tropical paradise.
Itâs why 9 out of 10 countries that have an issue with obesity are Pacific island countries. Using renewable energy to power the machinery and the agricultural equipment is a step in the right direction to allowing these nations to not be as reliant on food imported from abroad.
WHAT HAPPENS TO A SMALL NATION AFTER A NATURAL DISASTER Our conversation about Puerto Rico was fascinating. After the hurricane in 2017, the island was devastated and literally had to shut down. I know they rely heavily on tourism, with dozens of cruise ships docking every day, and the US came to the rescue.
Millions of dollars were spent to get the country back up and running. Interestingly, they had to rebuild new electricity grids and they started to use sustainable energy and renewable energy, and how smart is that. If we, North Americans, had to rebuild our grids, we just wouldnât build them the same way, we would use far more renewable energy.
James and I talk about how people are leaving, 500,000 of them since the hurricane to live in Florida, which has left a huge gap in the real estate market for anyone to walk into, especially if you are an American, and buy property at a reduced rate.
In a Nutshell
How important is renewable energy to these small island nations, and for all of us for that matter
What are smart grids?
How can we use new technology?
New style greenhouses that withstand hurricanes
The disappearance of small islands in the South Pacific and the difference between an Atoll and an island...
Greg Rollet is a fast-talking, energized, crazy video marketing genius, who is an Emmy Award-Winning Producer, Best Selling Author and Marketing Expert who works with the likes of Brian Tracy, Michael Gerber and Coca-Cola.
Who better to learn about Video Marketing than from an expert TV producer that has created âAmbitious Lifeâ a weekly show on air for 98 consecutive weeks, and âAmbitious Adventuresâ which was just picked up by âEntrepreneur and Amazon Primeâ, very impressive!
Maybe youâre wondering if video marketing is for you and your company, I wondered the same. After my hour with Greg, I better understood how and why videos work and most importantly, how to repurpose my videos. And why itâs just not good enough to produce ONE video and leave it at that.
HOW DO I CREATE A VIDEO? Greg and I talk about the iPhone and is it good enough to use to make a 5 or 6-minute video. He tells us âItâs fine, just get startedâ When you have a little experience and some confidence add a couple of hundred dollars to amplify your iPhone so that the lighting is great, (no shadows), the sound is crisp and clear, (no humming) and the picture is clear! One of the other tips from Greg was to use a 2nd camera, for many reasons like editing. It just works better!
But hereâs the truth, it doesnât HAVE to be video, but if you have taken a great video there are so many ways you can use that video and repurpose the content.
3 OF THE MOST IMPORTANT TIPS FOR VIDEO MARKETING
Start with a 5-6 minute Video
Be consistent - donât do 1 video and leave it at that. If you want success, true success keeps the content coming every week. And donât over-commit. If youâre just starting out, donât say youâre going to create a video every day, youâll get burnt out.
Solve your clients' problem (pain point)
NOW WHAT DO I DO? HOW TO REPURPOSE YOUR VIDEO MARKETING Greg really delves in deep with every way you can repurpose the content, and itâs crazy! Ways I never even thought about. He starts with a 5-6 minute video, and here are just a few tips from Greg on how to repurpose that video:
Break down the video into bite-size snackable pieces
Use it for YouTube, FB, Twitter (listen carefully how this is done)
Strip it down and use as a podcast
Have it transcribed so you can use it ...
As a blog,(or many blogs)
Broken down as a guest blog
Use little snippets and have quotes designed (Greg talks about how he does this)
And moreâŠ..so much more!
What was really cool about having a video marketing expert on https://expatmoneyshow.com/ (The Expat Money Show), was that everything Greg talked about I could use to grow my business. I gotta tell you, my guests here on the podcast are brought here for me, as much as they are for you, my listeners. I know that to grow my business, to create likeability, for you to trust me, all of Gregâs tips are super important. Iâm pretty sure for most of my listeners, you will be stopping and starting this episode because it has heaps of value for those just starting out in business to those with years of experience.
Greg and I chat about not stopping just because you only got 30 views on YouTube with your video. Take a look at all of the other platforms. Where did you rock it? What kind of content can you pull out and use better for that platform? Greg shares what his best platform is and how he has super-sized it to make a killing!
When youâre listening, take note of whatâs new in the world of video marketing. What new platform can you use to take your business to the next level? Greg uses this line, which I totally love âDonât be just any old Monkeyâ (Find out who originally coined that phrase lol)
In a Nutshell
Find out what discoverability is
Why Social Proof is so vitally important
What shooting a vertical video can do for your platform

Todayâs guest on https://expatmoneyshow.com/ (The Expat Money Show) is Jim Cockrum. Jim was ranked among the most trusted Internet Marketers in the world, his best selling book https://amzn.to/2JjUDad (âThe Silent Sales Machineâ) has been read by an estimated 800,000 people around the globe. Jim is a constant top 10 seller on Amazon, and along with his two closest partners (Nathan Bailey & Brett Bartlett), run a combined $25 million annual sales empire. You can join https://www.facebook.com/groups/mysilentteam/ (Jim's Facebook group) of 48,000 members, where they are always creating engaging content not just about Amazon selling but about internet marketing as a whole.
When I heard Jim was going to be on our show I was ecstatic! Jim is such a well-known influencer in the world of Internet Marketing and has such a reputation for creating engaging content I knew our audience would go crazy to hear him.
What I found fascinating was that you would think a guy making heaps of money, having over 150 staff, and being in the business for almost 2 decades would have a pretty high opinion of himself, but nothing could be farther from the truth. Iâve got to say that Jim Cockrum has to be one of the nicest, most down to earth guy Iâve ever met.
How creating engaging content on Facebook is driving his Amazon business Jim and I dig deep into what it takes to dominate the market with Amazon. We discuss his tactics with Facebook and how their teams' creativity is unparalleled and how they are selling millions of dollars worth of Toys! We talk about how creating engaging content with something as simple as your mobile phone is beating out the monster brands like Mateel in the toys department. And how they have been able to get tens of millions of organic views of their products on Facebook.
In a Nutshell
Learn what three concepts are needed to totally rock as a human being

What Jim looks for when hiring a new employee
How important is getting your MBA? (his answer for this is hilarious)
What does a CEO of over 150 employees and $25 Million a year do?
How DO you create an 8 figure product line on Amazon?
Hot Topics for 2018 As a lot of our interviews go on https://expatmoneyshow.com/ (The Expat Money Show), we start our conversation talking about family, schooling, and education. For those of you that know me well I am opposed to traditional education. I believe there is a better way to learn. Interestingly enough many of my guests have the same beliefs and even some, like Jim Cockrum, have opted to homeschool his children (all 5 of them).
Why Traditional Education is Failing Jim and I discuss why it is so vitally important for the future of our children to not rely on others to teach them. That we just canât sit back and expect the current social schooling system to teach our children the fundamentals for being a successful human being.
That we need to show our children, day in and day out how to be the best. How to accomplish their goals, and not to have the expectation that they will be able to read a book and then understand it. That we need to be interactive with our children.
Jim shares how is 8-year-old son would never âexpectâ his mom and dad to just pay for something. He reaches inside and figures out a way that he can create a business that will ultimately fund his desires! Wow! If that isnât motivation for becoming an entrepreneur I donât know what is.
Life Learning Just Never Stops What we learn from Jim is how to be a remarkable parent and how to be the best that you can be so that others will follow your lead. We spend a great deal of time discussing child-rearing tactics and how to lead a fulfilling life.
Over and over again my guests show us that itâs not just about making money, itâs about the balance in your life between family and work. And how...
Todayâs guest onhttps://expatmoneyshow.com/ ( The Expat Money Show) is Nydia Monarrez. She is a top-rated Voice Over Talent, International Speaker, Hispanic Marketer and Business Consultant. Nydia has worked with the likes of McDonald's, Toyota and Walt Disney. She is focused on helping you to get your business ready to dominate in the Hispanic market.
In this episode, we talk in detail about why it is so vitally important to market to the Latinos inside the USA from Mexico, Columbia, Chili and other Latin American Countries. Nydia Monarrez goes into detail about how you can get your company ready for this booming market.
Early on, Nydia quickly realized that the interpreters that had been hired to translate from English to Spanish for the major companies in the USA were missing out on the most important aspect of the translation, the culture of the Latin American people. They had never grasped what it meant to be a Latino and couldnât understand why they couldnât dominate in the Hispanic market. This is a market that https://www.thinkwithgoogle.com/consumer-insights/new-research-shows-how-to-connect-with-digital-hispanics-online/ (grew roughly 50%) from 2010 to 2015 and they lost such a massive opportunity.
Nydia goes deep and really explains what the hot buttons for the Hispanic people are and how you can incorporate these hot buttons into your marketing (these are gold, don't miss these).
WE TALK ABOUT HISPANIC MARKETING SOLUTIONS! As Nydia says, "We came and weâre not leaving."
Born and raised in Mexico, Nydia understands fully what it takes to market to this powerful growing market. She takes her clientele to the next level of marketing and tapping into the 1.5 Trillion $$ buying power. You heard me, 1.5 Trillion USD buying power!!
I ASKED NYDIA âHOW DOES A BUSINESS KNOW IF THEY ARE RIGHT FOR THE HISPANIC MARKET?
Chiropractors, Doctors, Dentists
Information Products/Webinars/Books/Educational Products
Physical Stores, Grocery Stores
Are all perfect fits Nydia tells me, It doesnât matter the type of business you are in. We shop for everything, and everywhere and we prefer to buy from someone that understands our needs and takes the time to speak to us in our native language. So to really make a killing for your company you must start paying attention and learn the howâs and whyâs to dominate in the Hispanic market.

Today's returning guest on The Expat Money Show is Stephan Spencer and he's here to talk to us about the 3 pillars of SEO (along with a dozen other awesome concepts!)
https://expatmoneyshow.com/stephan-spencer/ (Last weeks episode of The Expat Money Show) Stephan Spencer and I spent our time together talking about how what he did in his personal life showed up so dramatically in his business life. How his love of seminars, books, and conferences has made him such a powerhouse in the world of SEO.
In this episode of the Expat Money Show Stephan Spencer gets down to the nitty gritty Science of SEO; how it works, why it works, and most importantly can you do it yourself? Then Stephan breaks down the 3 pillars of SEO and how to conceptually think about them when you produce content.
We talk About the Big Questions that Everyone Wants to Know: What the Heck is SEO and Why is it so Important? When I wanted to know and understand WHAT SEO is. Stephan directed me to his 1000 page book, https://amzn.to/2J55TdG (The Art of SEO) (funny guy)
Stephan explains that SEO is such a massive subject, with layers upon layers of understanding that it takes years to really master this Science. And he feels that if you attempt to do it by yourself, or you hire someone that doesnât really understand SEO, you could do more harm than good. Often an expert in SEO is needed to be called in after youâve tried to do it yourself and the process can take months to correct.
Here is a great article that explains https://searchengineland.com/guide/what-is-seo (what SEO is)
I had so many questions for Stephan Spencer
What ARE the 3 pillars of SEO?
And can you Break down the 3 pillars of SEO?
Explain Keywords for me?
What can I do to rank higher on Google?
What is âBlack Hatâ and âWhite Hatâ?
Best resources for SEO
How do I hire someone I can trust to do my SEO?
How long should it take for a website to rank #1 on Google?
And on and on...
Are you thinking about that one big question, same as me? What About Ranking Higher For Your Personal Name? I really want to own that first page of google for my own name. How can I do it, and how long will it take me? Stephan breaks down the way you can move into the top spot in Google and dominate that space!! (okay, maybe itâs just me, but Stepan rocks this answer!)
Stephan has graciously given our audience the ability to read Chapter 7 of his book âThe Art of SEOâ âHow do I create great contentâ which you can download free at https://www.marketingspeak.com/expat/ (MarketingSpeak.com/expat)  WHERE YOU CAN FIND STEPHAN SPENCER: Website: https://www.marketingspeak.com/expat/ (MarketingSpeak.com/expat)

I am so excited that Stephan agreed to come back to The Expat Money Show to really let us see into his world of SEO and to break down the 3 Pillars of SEO. Listen to the stories he tells, I hope you get as much value from this Podcast Episode as I did⊠and if you would like to stay up to date...

Akbar Sheikh helps Entrepreneurs to ethically scale their businesses to 7-figures immediately.
In this episode of https://expatmoneyshow.com/ (The Expat Money Show), Mikkel Thorup and Akbar Sheikh discuss how getting your fundamentals correct first can make success automatic. Often times people over complicate things and miss the basics like health, wellness, diet, sleep, association, and others that we touch on in this episode. Akbar Sheikh talks about how he went from homeless to a top 1% earner in his industry by focusing on these exact fundamentals.
You can learn more about Akbar Sheikh at https://akbarsheikh.com (https://akbarsheikh.com)
Mikkel Thorup & Akbar Sheikh at FHL 2018 in Orlando, FL.
The romantic notion of an entrepreneur working 24 hours a day 7 days a week, never sleeping, and hustle-hustle-grind-grind around the clock is not a sustainable approach. Akbar Sheikh recommends balance and he has some very strong opinions on how to get it. Make sure to listen to the complete episode to learn how these seemingly basic fundamentals can propel you and your business forward.
Akbar Sheikh talks about the 7 ethical principles of persuasion In this interview Akbar Sheikh also shares some of his secrets on how he helps businesses to scale to 7 figures fast, using what he calls the 7 ethical principles of persuasion. He uses these principles to walk into an existing business and "fixes things up". He uses a great analogy of a house and how with the right modifications you too can scale your business to 7 figures.
Final Thoughts on my Conversation with Akbar Sheikh I enjoyed this conversation with Akbar Sheikh immensely and was very fortunate to pry him away from his work while he was in Sydney Australia for a project. Akbar Sheikh is very obviously a sought-after coach and consultant and his time is very valuable, I hope that you take advantage of this interview and write down some killer notes on things you can modify in your own life to make successes automatic for you too.

Today's guest on https://expatmoneyshow.com (The Expat Money Show) is Erik Paquet, the Co-Founder of http://www.abroaders.com/ (Abroaders.com) and the Co-Host of Abroaders Podcast on https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/abroaders-podcast/id796618604?mt=2 (iTunes).
In this episode, we dig deep not only into the success mindset of an Entrepreneur living around the world but he explains exactly how all us Entrepreneurs can get free unlimited travel around the globe with some small tweaks to how we collect frequent flyer miles and how we use our credit cards.
I don't know about you but 3 or 4 extra roundtrip tickets in business class anywhere in the world every year sounds pretty awesome to me!
You can reach out to Erik Paquet at http://www.abroaders.com/ (Abroaders.com)
Free Travel Using Frequent Flyer Miles - The Basics...
You are going to get the majority of your points from the bank by using your credit card... not from actually flying
The BEST points to collect for free travel using frequent flyer miles are called "Transferable Points"
The WORST points to collect for free travel using frequent flyer miles are called "Fixed Rate Points"
To get the most value out of your frequent flyer miles make sure you are spending them on flights... and sometimes hotel stays
The worst way to use your frequent flyer miles is for online shopping of goods, often the price of say a coffee maker and a one-way business class seat can be the same amount of points even though the dollar amount could be thousands apart...
Free Travel Using Frequent Flyer Miles - More Advanced...
Using frequent flyer miles all you need to pay is the airport taxes... typically $50 to $200 a trip
The government counts the use of frequent flyer miles as a "rebate" and not as income... so if you were to take $20,000 of free travel during the year it would not bump you to a higher tax bracket
Making sure all your Facebook Ads and Google Ads you spend for your business are done through your credit card that is connected to your frequent flyer program
Your Ad spend only needs to break even for you to get unlimited travel around the planet
When signing up for a new credit card make sure you are getting a signing bonus of 50,000 + points for joining
Purchasing a business or first-class ticket can be 5 to 10 times the cost using cash, but it is not 5 to 10 times the amount when paying using points. Make sure you check the difference and try upgrading your ticket
Final Thoughts I don't want to spoil too much from this episode because you really need to listen to it yourself to understand the whole concept. You will also be able to laugh at how poorly I have used my points in the past LOL.

Public Speaking - Who you share the stage with is an instant way to gain credibility and is a sure-fire way to position you so people will listen to your message and want to learn more about your story
Epic Content - Backlinking guest post articles and websites to content you have written with 2-3k words that help people to solve their problems.

Or Mindy's webpage at:

Some of the main things we discuss:
How not to fall into the Entrepreneur trap of working 24/7 and losing sight of your goals
What learning from the best coaches in the world can do for you
Why everyone needs a coach in their lives
What to expect from a coach
How to develop the family first mindset
Learning from the best coaches in the world - Key takeaways: Develop a system for everything Think of this down to the smallest details, from having the phone answered in a certain way every time, to how you will attract your clients, have a system for everything... perfect it... implement it... and then move on to the next. Think about creating an asset that will last forever and pay you dividends in the future.
Live by the Calendar Write everything in your calendar, including time with family, time for yourself, time to learn, time to reflect. If it is important to you then you need to have it in the calendar. It's that simple, if it's not scheduled it will not get done.
Every Minute of work has to be focused on a revenue event Make sure every minute you are working in the office that there is a direct correlation between what you are doing and generating revenue, and not just revenue, but revenue in the short term. It is important to be focused on rewards to help move you and your business forward.

Today's guest on The Expat Money Show is the Host of Funnel Hacker Radio a Top-Ten Business Podcast and is the Chief Revenue and Business Development Officer at https://expatmoneyshow.com/funnels (Clickfunnels).
Dave Woodward joins us on the podcast to discuss what is a sales funnel and more importantly... why do you need one today.
Free 14-Day Trial To learn more about Clickfunnels and sales funnels and to get your 14-Day free trial visit:Â https://ExpatMoneyShow.com/funnels (https://ExpatMoneyShow.com/funnels)
Same of the big questions Dave Woodward answers for us about what is a sales funnel:
Why do you need a Sales Funnel?
How to develop a lead to a buyer as quickly as possible?
Why will a regular website not cut it anymore?
What are some of the most common mistakes new entrepreneurs make?
What is the number one thing you can do TODAY to fix your website?
In this episode, we discuss what is a sales funnel but we also talk at length about Clickfunnels, the most powerful funnel software on the planet. I have used this software extensively and loved how easy it was for me to navigate even though I know NOTHING about programming.
I remember a couple of years ago when I started my online https://www.bravewomentravel.com/ (Travel Agency) and IÂ didn't have access to a product like Clickfunnels I had to hire a programmer to do everything from scratch for my website.
Without a lie it cost me over $30,000 USD to build and took more than 4 months... yes it is a beautiful website, but today I would be able to do the same thing in a fraction of the time and for tens of thousands of dollars less.
Who uses this software? The list of successful Entrepreneurs who use Clickfunnels software is staggering, including Akbar Skeik, Trey Lewellen, John Lee Dumas, and about 56,000 other Entrepreneurs from around the world.
Even Robert Kiyosaki and Dan Kennedy wrote the forwards to the books https://expatmoneyshow.com/expertsecrets (Expert Secrets) and https://expatmoneyshow.com/dotcomsecrets (DotCom Secrets).
Finial Thoughts I could just write out in a couple of sentences technically what is a sales funnel but that will not explain the complete picture.
That's why I would suggest you listen to this complete episode of The Expat Money Show and then claim your free 14-Day Trial of Clickfunnels https://ExpatMoneyShow.com/funnels (here).
Take the 14-Days free trial... take the free training... beat the hell out of the software! Learn everything you can about it and discover how easy and powerful it is... then make the decision if it is right for you or not.
That will actually answer your question of what is a sales funnel, and more important than knowing what is a sales funnel you will understand how to use it to take your ideas and turn them into an additional stream of income, which at the end of the day is what I am always trying to help you to do on The Expat Money Show.
Earlier in the year I was a guest on Trish Leto's Show - The Expert Connection - and I had such a good experience I thought it would be fun to ask Trish onto The Expat Money Show to talk about her experiences as an expert with Facebook Live Videos, why businesses need to be doubling down on Facebook Live Videos and how you can really make your Facebook Live Videos shine.
Why should you care about Facebook Live Videos? Engagement Facebook Live Videos get 3x the engagement as traditional videos on other platforms Indisputable Proof People can steal and repurpose your written content and put their name to it. But Facebook Live Videos are proof you actually know what you are talking about, you are an expert and you are original It's Free Hate to say it, but it's hard to beat free... broadcasting live to thousands of people used to be reserved for the big media companies, but now doing Facebook Live Videos gives you the same power and it's not going to cost you thousands of dollars Get Feedback in Real-Time You will know how people are receiving your content in realtime, your followers will be able to tell you if they are enjoying it or not and you can adjust by listening to them Native Content By using the Facebook Live Videos feature you are using actual native content to Facebook, and you will organically drive more traffic to your Facebook business page
Tips even if you are shy or are nervous on camera:
You don't actually need to record yourself, feel free to do a screen share of what you are teaching and let the content be the visual
Start by doing an interview based show (Similar to The Expat Money Show) and allow the interviewee to provide the majority of the content
Invite a friend onto your Facebook Live Video and have a conversation
And remember... even if you mess up, make mistakes say the wrong thing, whatever... it's okay... people are forgiving, Facebook Live Videos are not supposed to be perfect
Here is a https://www.facebook.com/facebookmedia/blog/tips-for-using-live (fabulous article) from Facebook itself on how to use FB Live! Enjoy!

We are joined by Eyal Hertzog the Co-Founder of The Bancor Network a top 100 Cryptocurrency Token. In this interview, we talk in depth about not just Bancor and what it will do in the world but the future of money as a concept. We dive deep on the liquidity problems that face the landscape and why longtail products are so important.
Eyal Hertzog makes some interesting points about user-generated content in the case of video and now with the possibility of user-generated money. When you understand the implications of this you can really understand why Cryptocurrency is changing the world and why it is here to stay.
In the case of the Bancor Network when you remove the need for counterparty and third party people or organizations and keep Cryptocurrency as decentralized as possible it is incredibly interesting and important.
You can learn more about the Bancor Network here: Website:Â https://about.bancor.network/ (https://about.bancor.network/)
Telegram:Â https://t.me/bancor (https://t.me/bancor)
Highlights to understand about the Bancor Network
No Spread - Low-cost conversions thanks to a non-profit automated market maker
Continuous Liquidity - Convert any token at any time regardless of buyers and sellers or trade volume
No Counterparty Risk - Buy and sell through smart contracts, no deposits, no exchanges
No Registration Required -Â On-chain conversions directly from your web3 wallet
Predictable Price Slippage -Â The Bancor Formula incorporates transaction size and needs no order book so prices are transparent
Backwards Compatible - Any existing ERC20 token can integrate into the Bancor Network with no code changes or fees
From the Bancor Networks Website: The Bancor Protocol is a new standard for cryptocurrencies called Smart Tokensâą. They are autonomously and continuously convertible to other tokens in the network at algorithmically calculated rates.
The protocol utilizes âconnectorâ modules, which hold balances of other ERC20 tokens within a smart contract. The Bancor Formula constantly recalculates prices to maintain a balance between Smart Tokens and their connectors.
Benefits The Bancor Protocol is a technical revolution allowing tokens to be converted without matching two parties with opposite wants.
The magic is in the math. With a simple formula, balancing buys and sells so that every token in the network maintains a formulaic relationship to others.
The result is continuous liquidity regardless of trade volume or exchange listings.
Amazing Entrepreneurs I can see you are loving the space of cryptocurrency. Here is another great interview with http://CRYPTERIUM A CRYPTO BANK FOR CRYPTO PEOPLE â HOW THEY ARE CHANGING THE LANDSCAPE. (Austin Kimm about Crypterium A Crypto Bank for Crypto People - How they are changing the landscape)

Here are a few articles you might light browsing through. https://expatmoneyshow.com/blog/147-million-dollars-in-bitcoin-lost-forever-by-quadriga/ ($147 Million Lost in Bitcoin)
Final Thoughts I think that Bancor is a company that people should really pay attention to and I am following their progress intently. It was a pleasure to have Eyal Hertzog on The Expat Money Show, I learned

I wanted to show how working together with a partner and being able to leverage each other's strengths can lead to success.
We take a look at the creative side matched with the business side and how splitting roles allows you to focus on "That one thing" that really makes you shine.

We are joined by James Richards and Tim Smith.
I first met James Richards through a mutual entrepreneurial friend, https://expatmoneyshow.com/michael-chiang (Michael Chiang)Â (From https://expatmoneyshow.com/michael-chiang (Episode #11) where he teaches us to create an app from scratch)
James invited me for a private screening of Tim's work at his downtown penthouse apartment in Manhatten. I was struck how raw and uncensored the work was.
Through many (often inebriated) discussions with James and others, I learned a lot about the underground art scene in New York and the entrepreneurial spirit that runs through it.
This was a really interesting episode to create and I hope you get as much out of it as I did...
In this episode you are going to learn: From the business side:
Tips for curating your own collection as an investment
Learning from your mistakes
Why having a personal network is so paramount
From the creative side:
What's hot in the art scene today
Even artists need mentors
How to be honest with yourself
Why you need to always look forward

Final Thoughts I loved this episode because after listening you can see that an artist really is an entrepreneur. It doesn't matter if you are opening a restaurant and selling food or if you are putting oil on canvas, at the end of the day you are creating something, and really it's the mindset that sets you apart.

More Please This was a fantastic interview with...
Michael Chiang joins us on The Expat Money Show to discuss app development. We break down 4 simple steps to building an app and why these steps could save you 6-12 months of wasted time and effort...
Michael is an Entrepreneur based out of Manhatten, he specializing in app development in the pet space and is now moving into mobile games.
Michael is the Co-Founder of https://www.fitbark.com/ (FitBark.com), FitBark is a small, colourful device that you attach to your dogâs collar. It monitors activity levels, quality of sleep, distance travelled, calories burned, and overall health and behaviour 24/7. In the show, I refer to it as a Fitbit for dogs, but I quickly was able to see, it is a lot more than that. https://www.fitbark.com/ (Fitbark) is available in more than 125 countries worldwide.
We discuss Michaels newest venture, JoyRide, it is a mobile game you play while taking an Uber. It is a 10 question trivia game that if won will pay for your entire Uber ride as a prize.
Check out http://playjoyride.com/ (PlayJoyRide.com) to learn more.

4 Key Steps To Building An App: 1. Share your idea with your trusted circle and even go outside your circle to get opinions. Sharing your idea will help you flush out the concepts and force you to articulate them to someone else. What is their response? Do they understand? Is your product needed in the marketplace? These are all questions that must be answered before moving on, and you are not able to be objective enough without asking others for feedback.
2. Build a team. The right team can make anything happen. You can start with your personal network, ask people you respect if they can recommend someone in this space. Trust is such a massive factor when starting a new project. Make sure your team understands your vision and help guide them to the outcome you want.
3. Create your Minimum Viable Product (MVP). You can build a rough MVP in a weekend that you will be able to take to market and test. Let people see it and feel what it is like to use it, even a very basic MVP can be extremely valuable in showing you if you have a product worth moving forward with or not. If it is not going to work, it is better to fail fast then waste 6 -12 months of your life on an idea that will never have wings.
4. Make sure you are bankrolled properly. Capital is extremely important in the early stages of developing your idea. Aim at 10-20k USD to properly roll out a decent MVP and test the market. If you need to pivot your idea to something new you will really need the extra funds.

Self Learning Self-learning is such an important topic to me considering I have a rather short experience with formal education. I started failing out of school at 12 and by 15 I was completely done with high school and never went back. I have had to continually push myself harder than my peers to learn more and more so I could stay competitive in the marketplace and increase my own income.

How to be Productive? Productivity is such an interesting topic in today's day and age, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, an average American works 8.8 hours a day. But a https://www.vouchercloud.com/blog/office-worker-productivity/ (study) of 1,989 full-time office workers revealed that most people aren't working for most of the time they are on the clock.
The most popular unproductive activities sited were:
Reading news websites--1 hour, 5 minutes
Checking social media--44 minutes
Discussing non-work-related things with co-workers--40 minutes
Searching for new jobs--26 minutes
Taking smoke breaks--23 minutes
Making calls to partners or friends--18 minutes
Making hot drinks--17 minutes
Texting or instant messaging--14 minutes
Eating snacks--8 minutes
Making food in office--7 minutes
Other research shows that most people are not productive for more than 2.8 hours a day... looking at your own life where do you fit in? In this episode, we try to break down exactly how to be productive and talk extensively about some of the heroes in this space.

Final Thoughts I really enjoyed recording this episode with Mihkel Sepp because the question of how to be productive has come up so many times in my own life... it really is easy to become distracted with that "Shiny object syndrome" that entrepreneurs are so well known for and fall down the rabbit hole of the internet.
This episode of https://expatmoneyshow.com (The Expat Money Show) is so packed with actionable steps you can take in your life to increase your own productivity.
When I used to read random textbooks on economics a few years ago, economies of scale was not a topic I paid much attention to... In this interview with Tony Medina, we talk in-depth about why economies of scale are so important when looking at a business model and why your first instinct may be completely wrong...
Tony Medina is the CEO of https://www.seoulguidemedical.com/en/home/ (Seoul Guide Medical), a private company that manages top calibre plastic surgery hospitals in Seoul Korea as well as works with one of the best Dental Surgeons on the planet, Dr Chulmin Bae from http://oaksdentalkorea.com (Oaks Dental Clinic) in Gangnam.
In this Episode of https://expatmoneyshow.com (The Expat Money Show), we discuss Tony's experiences as an Expat Entrepreneur for the last 10 plus years living in Seoul Korea. He shares a hilarious (and also scary) story of travelling to meet a previous high-level client in Kazakstan.
Wikipedia Explains Economies of Scale as: "In microeconomics, economies of scale are the cost advantages that enterprises obtain due to their scale of operation (typically measured by amount of output produced), with cost per unit of output decreasing with increasing scale.
Economies of scale apply to a variety of organizational and business situations and at various levels, such as a business or manufacturing unit, plant or an entire enterprise."
But that does not give us a very good understanding as Expats trying to create your own businesses or to increase our income. Tony Medina uses the example of why a country like Korea can move so much further ahead then somewhere like the USA in something like Cosmetic Surgery. Listen to the full Episode (above) to hear the full story.

Final Thoughts: This interview was really enjoyable for me. Tony Medina has been one of my closest friends for many years and we have travelled all over the planet together (not to mention the 60 some-odd times I have gone to Korea to visit him for work) and I can attest first hand to the success Tony has created for himself in a country completely different from where we grew up in and in a language that is not the easiest to learn.

Since recording this episode Tom Augenthaler has become a personal friend of mine and has advised me exactly what I should and should not be doing in regards to my influencer contracts.
I believe that working with influencers is another strategy that all businesses should be looking towards, it's important to not count on only one stream of traffic to your business and influencer marketing is another way you can add to your pipeline, but as mentioned make sure your influencer contracts are clearly laid out so both parties are protected and is clear what is to be expected.
