354: Offshore Upside: How To Take Your IRA International

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. With growing debt, inflation, and political uncertainty, relying solely on Wall Street is becoming an increasingly risky strategy. That’s why I brought in Matt Calhoun from Equity Trust for a timely discussion on how to regain control with a self-directed IRA. In this episode, we cover how to use it to invest in foreign real estate and other real assets that can help protect and diversify your portfolio for the long term.   IN TODAY’S EPISODE: 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. Discover the very few types of assets that retirement accounts are prohibited from managing. Cross these off your list of investment ideas for IRAs.  Hear about the most common mistakes people make using self-directed IRAs so that you don’t make them yourself!   DON’T MISS THE EXPAT MONEY SUMMIT 2025!

352: Javier Milei’s Argentina: What It Means For Expats And Freedom

While most world leaders double down on failed socialist policies, Javier Milei is doing the opposite: ripping the state down to its foundation in an unprecedented bid to restore individual freedom and economic sanity. In this episode, I unpack what Milei's bold reforms mean for Argentina, the Western world, and the global expat community. . IN TODAY’S EPISODE: Tune in to discover how Milei’s “chainsaw plan” is dismantling Argentina’s bloated bureaucracy and crushing inflation with real, measurable results. Listen in as I break down why Milei’s attack on Wokeism and collectivist ideologies at Davos is sending shockwaves through global elites. Learn how Argentina’s pivot away from BRICS and toward NATO could redefine the geopolitical balance in South America. Discover why Milei's radical vision could make Argentina a top contender for your offshore Plan-B.   STAY IN TOUCH!
