325: Trump’s Election & What It Means for Your Offshore Plan-B

No matter where you live or where you’re from, it’s hard to avoid the U.S. election. Whether we like it or not, whoever holds that office has tremendous power and will undoubtedly affect the geopolitical landscape over the next four years. In today’s episode, I am joined by two of my Expat Money team members, Marc Clair and Remso Martinez - who happen to be Americans and experts on U.S. politics. The three of us have a roundtable discussion about the recent election of Donald Trump and its potential impact on expats and your offshore plans. We explore what his promises around tax cuts, deregulation, and government downsizing could mean for Americans living overseas and why an offshore Plan-B remains essential in today’s volatile political landscape. Enjoy!   TODAY’S CONVERSATION ABOUT THE U.S. ELECTION OF DONALD TRUMP: Join me and two American experts as we discuss Trump’s election victory, analyzing its immediate impacts on the U.S. economy and global conflicts. We explore the broader cultural shifts following Trump’s win: does it mark a turning point against wokeness and lockdown policies? Discover how the Internet and Trump’s last-minute campaign podcast tour played a role in his election success. Can Trump follow through on promises to cut government size and drastically reduce taxes? We share predictions on the direction his presidency could take. How did Trump achieve this victory? Marc and Remso unpack the conditions that paved the way, along with why this election didn’t see the same “shenanigans” as in 2024. Should Americans still create an offshore Plan-B and/or become expats with Trump as President? We delve into Trump’s potential impact on the BRICS alliance and its push towards non-dollar payment systems—will the trend towards de-dollarization continue under his presidency?   ATTEND THE WEALTH, FREEDOM & PASSPORTS CONFERENCE IN PANAMA!

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

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….   SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER Keep up to date on the latest news affecting expats, as well as a steady stream of my opinions, travel stories, and more by subscribing to our newsletter.

323: Living Off-The-Grid In Latin America – Patrick Hiebert

Living off-grid doesn’t have to mean “barely getting by” and going without our favourite life amenities. In fact, today’s guest, Patrick Hiiebert, is building luxury, freedom-oriented, off-grid communities right here in Latin America.  Like myself, Patrick was born in Canada and now lives in Latin America. He is the CEO and one of the founders of EcoVillages and VidaVerde AgroForestry. Through his work at EcoVillages, he has founded Veritas Village Panama, a luxury off-grid community outside of Panama City.    TODAY’S CONVERSATION WITH PATRICK HIEBERT: Listen in to find out how Patrick and his family ended up falling in love with and living full-time in Latin America. Learn why Patrick intends to win back the term “eco” from climate commies who have distorted it to be conflated with socialism. Can you really live off-the-grid while having all the amenities of luxury, first-world living? Patrick reveals the pieces that make the concept work. Discover what the future holds for the Veritas concept and what other countries are on the radar for potential Veritas-inspired communities. Tune in to hear Patrick and I brainstorm some wild ideas together for expanding this off-grid luxury concept.  Find out how living in an off-grid community not only improves your way of life but drastically decreases your cost of living.  Hear Patrick explain why the demand for this type of self-sufficient community has skyrocketed since COVID restrictions of a few years ago.  By the end of this conversation, you’ll fully understand why Latin America provides an ideal, welcoming and safe environment for these off-grid communities.   HOW TO CONTACT PATRICK HIEBERT Email Patrick: expat@EcoVillages.life For more on Veritas Panama: https://veritaspanama.com/   SIGN UP FOR OUR NEWSLETTER Keep up to date on the latest news affecting expats, as well as maintain a steady stream of my opinions, travel stories, and more by subscribing to our newsletter.

322: Expat News: Panama Keeps Investor Visa Price, Trump to End Double Taxation Of Expats?

Huge news broke regarding Panama’s Investor Visa this week, as the investment minimum will now remain at $300K, pausing the previously planned increase to $500K for at least two years. Plus, will Donald Trump really end the double taxation of American expats if he’s elected? These are the news stories at the top of my stack for this week’s edition of Expat News. After nearly six weeks of travel, followed by the Expat Money Summit right when we got back, a whole lot of news stories have been piling up, so let’s dive right into this fifth edition of Expat News! TODAY’S EDITION OF EXPAT NEWS: Listen in for the inside details on the Panamanian government’s decision NOT to raise the investment minimum for the Investor Visa. This is HUGE! Learn about the significant change the country of Vanuatu has made that will surely complicate its passport application process for many.  Discover how Russia is providing sanctuary for citizens of “destructive neoliberal countries” with a new visa program.  Is another Caribbean citizenship-by-investment program on the way? Find out which country’s opposition party is proposing another Caribbean CBI. Could Donald Trump really end double taxation of Americans overseas if he’s elected?  Tune in to learn the details of an interesting new citizenship-by-investment program coming out of a relatively off-the-radar island nation.  In light of recent major hurricanes, hear why more Floridians are fleeing to Panama, a well-known Hurricane-free zone.

Since we are all focused on the Summit this week, for this week's podcast I will be replaying an episode I recorded a few years ago where I break down the top 94 things that I do on a daily basis to ensure that I am creating a perfect balance between life and work. These 94 things are exceptionally important in my day-to-day life and these are how I am building a 7 figure income. Enjoy!

What goes into my body first thing in the morning is possibly the most important thing I can do from this list to create clarity and focus. I’ll tell you my entire ritual so you can create this, too. I love my espresso and my water. I let you in on some great tips on how to get the best out of your water, no matter where you live and what your tap water is like. Most people don’t realize how crucial having great oral hygiene is to your productivity throughout the day. I share what I have upgraded and done away with this past year; you will thank me for this. Exercise…I share with you my amazing routine that ensures my body and mind are ready for anything my clients want and need from me. You may have heard of some of the techniques I talk about in this jam-packed episode, like red light therapy, using a sauna, or only having a cold shower. You may also think they’re not that important, but I’m going to share my daily ritual to create optimum health, for myself and my entire family. Food…this is one of the biggest topics discussed around our dinner table. I’ll tell you how I slimmed down and lost 10 kilos and why this is so vitally important when it comes to dealing with my heavy workload, day in and day out!  Finally, after bringing it all together…education, relationships, and work; I then added ways to make my life easier. I can’t believe it took me this many years to figure this part out, but wow!
