324: Why An Offshore Plan-B Is The Best Insurance Against Politics

Nov 6, 2024

Nearly everyone insures their body with health insurance or their car with auto insurance. But how do you insure yourself against the machinations of greedy politicians, taxing and regulating your hard-earned wealth away at every turn? This is exactly where an offshore Plan-B comes into play. In today’s episode,  I share with you a recent conversation I had with my friend Tom Bodrovics on his show Palisades Gold Radio. I explain exactly why an international Plan-B is vital for anyone looking to preserve their liberty and wealth against inflation, taxation and the myriad of problems caused by psychopaths holding political office around the globe.  

TODAY’S CONVERSATION WITH TOM BODROVICS:

  • Hear why the question is not “what if” but “how high” when it comes to rising exit taxes and fees worldwide.
  • Listen as I struggle to name even one country where it’s gotten easier to get a visa in the last few years; the truth is, prices are always going up.
  • Discover why having an offshore Plan-B is having insurance against politics.
  • Hear my unfiltered thoughts on how I view countries like Argentina, El Salvador, Mexico and Colombia as Plan-B destinations.
  • What do government agents really see when they scan your passport? Learn what sort of information gets shared when you cross borders.
  • What are some of the countries expats should steer clear of? Find out what countries are on my personal blacklist as far as Plan-B’s go.
  • Learn what the best passports are that you can get through citizenship by ancestry - the answers may surprise you!
  • Am I worried my kids might one day argue about who was born with the best passport? Believe it or not, this is something I do think about….

I have great news. After many meetings and explanations, the Panamanian government has agreed to keep the Investors Visa at a $300k Real Estate investment instead of nearly doubling the amount required, as they said they would.
