For the freedom-minded, there’s plenty of doom and gloom where we look for it—wars, technocratic control systems, and economic collapse. But while most people stay stuck in fear or outrage, others are taking action. They’re securing second residencies, moving capital out of reach, and planting flags in places where freedom still has a fighting chance. In today’s episode, I joined Hrvoje Moric on his program Geopolitics & Empire to discuss what I’m 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 action—not black-pilled defeatism.   TODAY’S CONVERSATION WITH HRVOJE MORIĆ Listen in as I walk Hrvoje through my origin story—from 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 I’ve helped clients stay grounded and realistic about expat life—without buying into the fear porn or the sunshine-and-rainbows fantasies.  Hear my response to critics who overgeneralize Latin America—and 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.

How often do you get to meet a sitting president? Well, last week, I did just that when I had the incredible opportunity to meet Santiago Peña, the President of Paraguay. In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on two major experiences from the past week—my in-person interview with Panamanian immigration officials as I work toward citizenship and an exclusive luncheon where I met President Peña. First, I’ll take you inside my recent interview with Panamanian immigration officials, a key step in my citizenship process. And yes, I had to do it entirely in Spanish. Then, I’ll share how I managed to slip away from Chinese New Year’s celebrations with my family to attend a luncheon with the President of Paraguay, plus what I learned about the growing ties between Panama and Paraguay—two fantastic Plan-B destinations for expats. Enjoy the episode, and I’ll see you back here next Wednesday!   THE WEALTH, FREEDOM & PASSPORTS CONFERENCE IN PANAMA MARCH 14-15 Join us in Panama for the inaugural Wealth, Freedom & Passports Conference, our first-ever large conference event, taking place in Panama City, Panama, March 14-15, 2025!  This is your chance to gain invaluable insights, connect with like-minded freedom seekers, and, most importantly, connect with 20+ of the most trusted partners necessary to secure a prosperous life offshore.

As many of you know, I’ve been a resident of Panama for over five years, and I’m now in the process of pursuing my Panamanian citizenship. In today’s episode, I share an update on my latest (and somewhat nerve-wracking...) step in this journey. If you’re one of many listeners considering a second citizenship in Panama, you’ll definitely want to hear about this part of the process. I also provide a recap of my recent trip to Brazil, where I met with a business partner and toured an exciting real estate project. Brazil has so much to offer in terms of investment opportunities, and I’m thrilled to share a little bit more about the region I am investing in.  Enjoy today’s episode, and I’ll see you right back here next Wednesday!   THE WEALTH, FREEDOM & PASSPORTS CONFERENCE IN PANAMA MARCH 14-15 Join us in Panama in less than two months for the inaugural Wealth, Freedom & Passports Conference, our first-ever large conference event, taking place in Panama City, Panama, March 14-15, 2025!
