380: Why Every Doctor Needs an International Plan-B

Many medical professionals think of freedom in terms of choosing their own hours or running a private practice. But true freedom goes far beyond that — it’s about protecting your wealth, your mobility, and your options when the system turns against you. The world is changing fast, and without an international Plan-B, even the most accomplished physicians can find themselves boxed in by taxes, regulations and frivolous lawsuits. In today’s episode, I sit down with Dr. Alex from the Physicians and Properties Podcast to explore how you can take back control of your future through global diversification. We’ll talk about how to safeguard your assets, secure a second residency, and build the kind of borderless freedom that no bureaucracy can take away.   IN TODAY’S EPISODE: Listen in to find out why doctors are among my top clients and how their skills, income and risk profile make them ideal candidates for international diversificationDiscover how I help highly-paid professionals future-proof their careerwith international options that reduce dependency on one system, one employer, or one governmentTune in to hear my 12-month roadmap withthree clear stepsto secure your wealth, mobility, and peace of mind beyond borders.Learn why every doctor or medical professionalmust havean international Plan-B — or they could lose everything STAY IN TOUCH!

We all grow up being told to “follow the system.” Go to school. Get a job. Obey the rules. But what if the system itself is broken and designed to constrain you?

What’s it really like to build a full international Plan-B while still living in your home country, especially when you’ve got a family to think about? One client of mine, Ryan, has done exactly that. While married with four kids, he’s methodically built offshore investments, is in the process of securing second residencies, and has positioned his family for long-term freedom and security… all before making the move abroad. His story proves that protecting your future doesn’t require running; it requires planning.

375: 25 Years Abroad: How I Built a Global Real Estate Portfolio

I’ve been travelling the world for 25 years, and one thing I’ve learned is that freedom doesn’t just come from your passport; it comes from how you use it.

I delve into cash-flowing real estate, legal tax mitigation, and wealth protection strategies employed by myself and my clients.

373: Guyana: A Trip to the World’s Fastest Growing Economy

What if the fastest-growing economy in the world was also one of the most underdeveloped? That’s the paradox of Guyana, a tiny, English-speaking nation tucked between Venezuela and Brazil. I spent several days on the ground for my very first trip to this country.  In this episode, I am joined by my co-host, Marc Clair, to unpack everything I learned about the country, from its interesting demographics to its bizarre colonial legacy and its modern geopolitical situation.
