    Show notes Across several episodes, I have been trying to organize my thoughts regarding what I've been able to do over the last couple of decades to set myself up for success.

    260: Zen and the Art of Individual Sovereignty - Laurence Easeman Sep 06, 2023
    Show notes Today’s guest is Laurence Easeman, a filmmaker and host of the “Eyes Wide Open” podcast. His mission is to empower others to know their rights, break free from the system, and recognize the importance of personal autonomy and agency. He spends his time between the UK and Portugal, where he is pursuing residency.

    TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH LAURENCE EASEMAN

    • Listen as Laurence recounts his fateful trip up a mountain that changed his life and led to him pivoting away from filmmaking into becoming a full-time advocate for personal sovereignty.
    • Hear how the onset of the COVID regime shut down Laurence’s business in the UK and triggered him back into full-time activism and his current efforts on the “Eyes Wide Open” podcast.
    • We discuss the concept of activism - how it can make you a “moving target” like Laurence and why I do not consider myself an activist.
    • Find out why Laurence has embarked on his own expat journey and is currently pursuing residency in Portugal.
    • Listen in to hear how Portugal got put on the “red list” by the UK, banning its citizens from travelling there for not initially fully going along with the COVID narrative.
    • Hear Laurence break down how the powers that be utilize their illusion of authority to manufacture consent for tyrannical measures.
    • Laurence and I talk about the dark side of technology and why we both find value in places that are somewhat “backward in time” with their technological systems.
    • We discuss the absolute flood of Canadians fleeing during the last few years of the Trudeau regime, reflected in the fact that Canadians are now taking up the majority of my private clients.
    • Lastly, Laurence and I share in our passion for using homeschooling as a strategy to shield our children from psyops while depriving the state of its essential workers.

    CONCLUSION

    I had a blast speaking to a kindred spirit in Laurence Easeman, who shares my passion for individual liberty and personal responsibility. It’s no wonder he is climbing so quickly in the podcast world, as his insights and understanding of the systems of control in place - and, more importantly, how to deal with them - are second to none.

    258: How To Underthrow The Government - Max Borders Aug 23, 2023
    Show notes Today’s guest is Max Borders, author of the book Underthrow: How Jefferson's Dangerous Idea Will Spark a New Revolution. Max has been an outspoken supporter of decentralized systems and individual freedom and has authored four books deeply exploring humanity's movement toward societies of decentralized governance. Today, Max joins the show to explain his radical idea to “underthrow” the government through what he calls “subversive innovation.”

    TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH MAX BORDERS

    • Listen to Max describe how he followed his yearning to use creativity and entrepreneurship to affect societal change to write about the topic of decentralization.
    • Hear Max explain how he hopes to inspire people to underthrow the government, using what he refers to as “subversive innovation”
    • Max and I discuss how many libertarians often find themselves stuck thinking about policy while neglecting to make the needed changes in their own lives
    • Tune in to hear Max’s breakdown of the 3 options for affecting change in society and which he feels is superior
    • Listen to Max describe how governments have evolved from sovereign entities into an “extended politburo” run by government and corporate interests.
    • Learn about Max’s “Constitution of Consent” contest and how he aims for it to inspire real-life experiments in decentralized self-governance.
    • Hear Max lay out his ideas of just how we can navigate this era of unreason and untruth by implementing the ideas he discusses.

    HOW TO FIND MAX BORDERS’ WORK

    Head to Underthrow.org to find Max’s writing and the Constitution of Consent contest Follow Max Borders on Twitter

    CONCLUSION

    I had a blast talking to Max about his ideas, and I simply love that his focus is all about how to make them work in the real world, not simply in hypothetical fantasyland. As I often discuss, far too many great, freedom-loving libertarians that I run into wind up stuck in the realms of philosophy and policy. This program and my work as an expat consultant are all about taking actionable steps to achieve more liberty for yourself and your family, and I’m glad that Max’s ideas fall right in line with that. I hope all enjoyed this conversation as much as I did!

    257: How To Not Lose All Your Money Trading - Johnny Profita Aug 16, 2023
    Show notes Johnny spent 15 years in finance managing a billion-dollar fixed-income portfolio before he quit his 9-5 job and abandoned his life in Chicago to pursue the life he always wanted but never thought was possible. He currently lives in Mexico, where he now practices and teaches Futures and Forex trading while opining on politics, current events, and economics on the Peddling Fiction podcast.

    TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH JOHNNY PROFITA

    • Listen to Johnny recount how he “fell into” the world of finance as someone for whom math ”wasn’t one of his strong points” - with a degree in history, not finance!
    • Hear Johny lay out some of his rules for trading, most of which he had to learn the hard way - by making costly mistakes.
    • Johnny and I discuss the difficult but necessary task of removing feelings and emotions from the trading process.
    • I recall how some of the lessons I learned myself the hard way by losing money in my options trading days.
    • Johnny explains his motto for trading: "1% day keeps the 9 to 5 away.”
    • Hear Johnny describe the disturbing trend with IPOs over the last couple of decades which has seen many retail traders left holding the bag.
    • Johnny and I discuss the outlook for new traders looking to enter the market now, as high-interest rates have put an end to the flow of free money.
    • Will the dollar remain the world’s reserve currency for much longer? Johnny gives his prediction of what’s in store for the world’s currency markets.
    • We discuss the fine line between being prepared for what is going to happen economically without acting like “The End” is always around the corner.
    • Lastly, Johnny highlights the sharp increase in happiness he has found since leaving his “abusive relationship” with Chicago and starting a new life in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.

    CONCLUSION

    What I had first planned as a conversation about Mexico turned into an important conversation about the nature of trading and how to avoid many of the same mistakes Johnny and I have made in our own time. Once the conversation turned to Johnny’s experience on this, I just had to dig in deeper, as it’s a topic we haven’t covered extensively on the show yet. See you next Wednesday!

    256: Are Self Governing Cities Our Chance At Freedom? – Alex Voss Aug 09, 2023
    Show notes Alex Voss is the CFO of TIPOLIS, a company committed to becoming the creator, owner and operator of a global portfolio of international, autonomous cities. Alex also shares an affinity for topics like Bitcoin, Austrian economics and free cities, so as you can imagine, we get along great. Alex and I have known each other for a few years now, and it was great to sit down and pick his brain on the topic of free cities. Enjoy!

    TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH ALEX VOSS

    • Listen to Alex detail the pathway that took him from an interest in Austrian Economics to directly applying that knowledge through his work with Tipolis.
    • Learn the differences between the for-profit company “Tipolis” and the not-for-profit “Free Cities Foundation.”
    • Alex answers the question on everyone’s mind when it comes to “free cities”: where does the money come from, if not from “taxes" in the traditional sense?
    • We discuss one of the most well-known “free cities” projects in Prospera, Honduras, and provide an update on the troubles they’ve encountered with the government there.
    • Hear Alex further explain the business model behind free cities and how the risk associated with these projects is “built-in” to the price. If everything were perfect and predictable, the costs wouldn't be as attractive as there are today. You are paid handsomely for the perceived risk.
    • Alex and I discuss the interesting case of El Salvador and whether its’ adoption of Bitcoin could make it a prime location for a free city project itself.
    • Listen to Alex give an inside look at how and why the doors have rapidly begun to open in the last several years when it comes to finding opportunities with sympathetic governments for potential free city prospects.
    • We discuss how the economic impact of the COVID years, along with the rise of digital nomadism, have completely changed the landscape for the viability of free cities.

    CONCLUSION

    One of my favourite parts of what I do with Expat Money is all the great people like Alex I’ve had the opportunity to connect with through the shared interest of helping others achieve more liberty in their lives. There is a massive overlap between what I do in the expat space and the work Alex and others are doing with the Free Cities Foundation and Tipolis, and that’s why I decided to become involved in these projects myself and now sit on their company's advisory council. I hope you enjoyed this latest look at the concept of free cities. We’ll continue to circle back to it here on the Expat Money Show as things constantly evolve. In the meantime, be sure to follow Alex and his work at Tipolis and the Free Cities Foundation!

    255: CBI Shitstorm News Aug 02, 2023
    Show notes

    Today we are going to break from format a bit, as it has been a crazy week in the expat world, with a ton of news breaking that affects a number of popular CBI programs. Unfortunately, none of it is good news. I'm not here to sugarcoat things but rather to deliver the truth of what is going on in the world so that you can make the best decisions possible on your expat journey. Tune into this special breaking news edition of the Expat Money Show, wherein I break down all of the changes that have occurred in the last week and how they will affect those looking to do citizenship-by-investment programs in certain countries. I also provide some insight into my experience working through a St. Kitts CBI for myself. Luckily, having completed my paperwork before these changes, I will most likely be unaffected by this. Enjoy the episode, and remember that the right time to act on your expat dreams is always 'ASAP.'

    CONCLUSION

    It wasn't fun to have to record this episode and deliver some tough news that is going to affect a lot of people who were in the process of working on CBIs in these affected regions. The best we can do is stay up to date on what is going on and plan accordingly. I emphasize to my clients all the time to "act now" because you never know when these programs will change or just end altogether. This week is an unfortunate real-life example of just that. See you next Wednesday!

    254: How To Assimilate To The Local Culture – Jim Lennertz Jul 26, 2023
    Show notes Jim Lennertz is an American-born entrepreneur and adventurer. Raised in a beach town during California's "Golden Age," he became a self-described "well-educated surfer" who gathered real-world experiences and realized that the prescribed life path was not for him. He currently lives with his wife in Southern Brazil, and he’s also an admin in our private Facebook group at ExpatMoneyForum.com. In this conversation, Jim describes why he now calls Brazil home and gives tips for expats on assimilating into local culture.

    TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH JIM LENNERTZ

    • Hear Jim recount his expat origin story! Find out how life events, a magazine article and an abundance of frequent flyer miles led him to Brazil.
    • Jim and I reminisce about our first encounters online, where Jim would give me grief about my Portuguese. We had a blast catching up!
    • Listen in as Jim breaks down why he believes it’s so important for expats to assimilate into the local culture and not just stay within the confines of the expat bubbles.
    • Hear Jim and I discuss the importance of “breaking bread” in person, especially today when so many of our interactions are digital.
    • We discuss why Jim feels more safe and secure with his current situation in Brazil than he would if had the same situation back in California, which he calls a “dead state walking.”
    • Jim and I go back and forth a bit on the pros and cons of investing in agricultural land based on our slightly different outlooks. If you’ve thought about investing in agricultural land, you cannot miss this conversation!
    • Listen to us discuss why learning the local language as an expat is not just a convenience; it’s a matter of personal responsibility.
    • Lastly, Jim makes the by-the-numbers case for why Brazil is one of the safest places you could be in the event of World War Three.

    CONCLUSION

    I had such a great time speaking to Jim and getting his real-world perspective on integrating into a new culture as an expat. Having spoken with Jim plenty of times, both online and in person, over the last few years, I knew this conversation would be a blast, and Jim didn’t disappoint. So come on over to ExpatMoneyForum.com and join the conversation - and if you’re lucky, you’ll get to argue with Jim :)

    253: Where To Go If We Have World War III – Dave DeCamp Jul 19, 2023
    Show notes Today’s guest is the news editor over at Antiwar dot com and host of the daily podcast Antiwar News with Dave DeCamp. In this episode, we will be discussing the geopolitical situation as we head into a possible World War III scenario. While it’s not the cheeriest of subjects, this is a necessary conversation to have given the current state of affairs, so I hope you find great value in it.

    TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH DAVE DECAMP

    • Listen to Dave recount how he first became a passionate antiwar activist and how he was able to turn that passion into speaking about the subject full-time.
    • Hear Dave break down the current geopolitical situation involving Russia, Ukraine, and the U.S. and its NATO allies, and why we are closer to a hot war situation than at any time during the Cold War.
    • Dave breaks down how the situation between China and Taiwan is escalating simultaneously and how the United States has been sabre-rattling on the Asian front as well.
    • Dave and I discuss the role of Elon Musk in providing Starlink support to Ukraine. Is he really a hero, as many libertarians seem to believe, or is he another wolf in sheep’s clothing?
    • What would a full-scale war involving the U.S., Russia, or China look like? Dave breaks down the frightening possibilities of “warfare we’ve never seen before.”
    • Has World War III already begun? Dave and I discuss the idea that the war has already begun and how the definition of just what constitutes an act of war has shifted so drastically in recent years.
    • We discuss Turkey's unique role as a peace broker and a thorn in the side of NATO in many ways, even while being a member state.
    • What does Vladimir Putin want, and how far is the U.S. willing to continue to escalate its vast funding of the war in Ukraine? Dave and I both ponder these questions.
    • We also dig into the role some surprising countries have played in escalating tensions, like my former home Canada and even the supposedly neutral Switzerland.
    • Dave and I cap things off by discussing what the best region of the world would be if a full World War really does break out.

    CONCLUSION

    As much as this is a conversation I didn’t necessarily want to have, I don’t think it helps us any to bury our heads in the sand as some truly dangerous situations play out across the globe. I’ve been listening to Dave’s podcast since he started, and he was the first person that came to mind when I decided I had to do an episode on the topic of a potential World War. I hope the information proves useful to you as you plan your expat journey.
