We’ve had some really amazing guests this year, and I wanted to share with you some great excerpts from some of the episodes, kind of like a recap for anyone interested in learning more about Special Economic Zones and Private Cities.

Francisco talks about Prospera in detail and about the battle vs government. Patri gives us an update on Honduras and looks into future projects. Thibault discusses how zones are spread out across the globe. Peter tells us about corrupt countries and how to penetrate them with free cities.

221: The Future Unveiled: Ron Paul Shares His Global Predictions
221: The Future Unveiled: Ron Paul Shares His Global Predictions
Today’s guest is Congressman Dr. Ron Paul. Author, activist, physician and retired politician. Dr. Paul has had an incredible career, beginning in the 1960s as an OBYN into the 1980s, delivering somewhere around 4,000 babies in rural south Texas. During the 1970s, he founded the Ron Paul Institute For Peace And Prosperity and, in 1976, began his career as a politician. He was the Libertarian Party nominee in 1988 and a candidate for the Republican Party in 2008 and 2012.  In 2015 the former 12-term US Congressman from Texas launched the Liberty Report to discuss his provocative opinion and to analyze breaking issues affecting our lives and finances, and it is still going strong today. He is the author of END THE FED, THE REVOLUTION and more.   MY CONVERSATION WITH DR. RON PAUL  I ask Dr. Paul how he feels about the lack of freedom we’ve had over the past 2 and a half years; how did we get here? I’m Canadian. What does Dr. Paul make of what has happened in Canada over the last year with the trucker convoy and the government freezing bank accounts? We talk in-depth about his outlook for the future. Does humanity stand a chance? How can people all over the world protect themselves from what is happening? What is his advice for those seeking more freedom and liberty in their lives?   CONCLUSION I thoroughly enjoyed speaking with Congressman Paul. I truly look up to this man, and I know you’ll love the conversation as much as I did.Mentioned in this episode:Veritas Panama - Offgrid CommunityAfter 17 months of bureaucracy, my partners and I successfully got our permits for Veritas Panama!

220: Marc Faber – Buying Asian Investments & Currencies On The Cheap
220: Marc Faber – Buying Asian Investments & Currencies On The Cheap
Today’s guest on the Expat Money Show is Marc Faber, Editor and Publisher of the ‘’Gloom, Boom & Doom Report.’’ Born in Zurich, Switzerland, he studied Economics at the University of Zurich and, at the age of 24, obtained a Ph.D. in Economics magna cum laude. In 1990, he set up his business, publishing a widely read monthly investment newsletter, “THE GLOOM, BOOM & DOOM” report highlighting unusual investment opportunities. He is also the author of several books, including “TOMORROW’S GOLD – Asia’s Age of Discovery”    TODAY’S CONVERSATION WITH MARC FABER Listen in to today's conversation I have with Marc Faber about the possibility of war between China and Taiwan. What are his predictions, and what are they willing to do regarding money and war? Do the Taiwanese people want conflict? Or is it that the US likes to provoke conflict? Where do you hold your assets? Marc shares his basic allocation and the percentage for each. Is holding cash a good idea? And if so, what currency is worth holding? Why is it vitally important to hold your gold in the country you live in and not in another country? Online brokerage accounts. Are they a good idea? How safe are they? An important question to ask yourself: How will I lose the least in an environment where things are bad? Marc explains all. A serious risk that the governments will impose some sort of wealth taxation. In an emergency decree, a government can do anything; look at what Trudeau did during the trucker strike. We discuss Qatar and the UAE and their monarchies, as opposed to the corruption with Canada’s Trudeau and the fact that democracies have the very worst people at the top.  I asked Marc, what countries would you diversify in?  If you are holding US cash, what other fiat should we look at? And what does he believe the top 3 currencies are?   HOW TO REACH MARC FABER www.gloomboomdoom.com   RELATED EPISODE 214: Stacking Laws Like LEGO Blocks To Secure Your Freedom – Patri Friedman 199: It’s Time For The World To Wake Up And Thrive – Foster Gamble   CONCLUSION What an interesting conversation with one of the most brilliant minds of today.

218: Powering the Future: Nick Giambruno on Energy and Bitcoin
Nick Giambruno is a renowned speculator and international investor. He's the Founder of The Financial Underground and Editor in Chief of its premium investment research publication, Contra Speculator. Nick travels the world searching for lucrative investment opportunities in overlooked markets and is known for spotting geopolitical and economic trends early.   TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH NICK GIAMBRUNO Nick and I dig into early Bitcoin adoption and what China and Russia would look like if they adopted Bitcoin.  Argentina and Venezuela, both energy-producing countries, might be great candidates as well to adopt Bitcoin and lead the world in Bitcoin mining, but what would that look like? Understanding the Petrodollar, the relations between the Saudis and the Americans, and knowing the fundamentals here. A fascinating conversation regarding governments using Bitcoin to trade things like oil and other commodities like grains and such, all in Bitcoin. Are there good investments or speculations in the Middle East that are worthwhile?  Nick and I discuss the big picture situation geopolitically, economically, and how very important it is concerning the Middle East. Nick shares his research on Bitcoin mining companies, and we learn about these companies and what the difference is between investing in them as opposed to investing in Bitcoin directly. If you’re a beginner in buying and selling Bitcoin, Nick explains his favourite wallet and what you need to do to hold your bitcoin safely. Learn when the best time to buy Bitcoin is, how you can know what point in the cycle you are and how long you should hold on to it to ensure you make a good return on your investment.   RELATED EPISODES 217: Online Privacy For Freedom-Minded Individuals – Terry Tillaart 137: Blockchain And The Future Of The Internet – Marco Wutzer  108: Bitcoin vs Gold Live Debate From Vegas    HOW TO REACH FinancialUnderground.com Twitter @NickGiambruno   CONCLUSION Amazing conversation with Nick Giambruno.

217: Guarding Your Digital Footprint: Privacy Tips from Terry Tillaart
Terry Tillaart is a proponent of private, decentralized, sound money, a crypto enthusiast, a privacy advocate and a regular speaker at international freedom conferences.   MY DISCUSSION WITH TERRY TILLAART  Today’s conversation with Terry Tillaart focuses on how we should be looking at ways to seek absolute freedom in our lives. Why is freedom important? Why should we be looking at getting away from the control of organizations that don’t have our best interests at heart, even though they claim they are doing it for our sake? Concepts that we must absolutely stop doing now, right now, and why this is vital to our future, your family's future. How do we support projects that support freedom and businesses that move us closer to our main objectives of a parallel society? If you believe that the last 3 years has been orchestrated by groups worldwide that don’t have your best interest at heart, then this is the episode for you.  We dig deeper into which crypto is for the people, which ones are pro-freedom, and which ones can’t be controlled. What you absolutely must know to be able to survive what is coming for the future of our world. Terry shares his favourite privacy coins and why he thinks these are a much better option. I talked with Terry about how things could have turned out differently if people who donated to the Trucker Convoy had used a privacy coin and how they wouldn’t have had their accounts frozen, not had their assets seized and would not be on some kind of watch list.    HOW TO REACH TERRY TILLAART & IMPORTANT LINKS FOR PRIVACY Private Telegram Group   https://t.me/+fRKdC-m1ActiNDRh www.terrytillaart.com Most Private Email - www.mailfence.com Best Browser  - https://decentr.net (also has the best search engine built in https://presearch.io ) More Resources in Telegram Group  https://t.me/+fRKdC-m1ActiNDRh   RELATED EPISODES  137: Blockchain And The Future Of The Internet – Marco Wutzer 188: Deep Dive On Privacy Coins And How To Stay Anonymous – Tobias...

Thibault Serlet is the Director of Research at the Adrianople Group, a business intelligence firm that focuses on Special Economic Zones and master-planned cities. He is also the architect of Open Zone Map, the world’s largest SEZ dataset. He advises for Pronomos, a VC fund that invests in new city projects and co-founded the Startup Societies Network, a charter cities think tank. He frequently writes about SEZs, economic history, and the open data movement. &nbsp; TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH THIBAULT If you are a business owner looking for more freedom living as an expat, this episode is for you. Thibault shares with us his biggest reasons and strategies for setting up your company in a special economic zone. Is your company facing regulatory problems? I believe you can find a solution, no matter your industry, so keep listening. Exactly what is a special economic zone, and why do governments create them? Where is the very best place to look for the best special economic zone for your company? Interesting facts about when the first special economic zone was created; no, it wasn’t the Shenzhen Zone. Listen to hear the fascinating history behind this concept. You’ll be amazed at how these special economic zones work, what they can and can’t do inside their area, and how many there are throughout the world.  The next question is why? Why would you open an SEZ anywhere in the world? After listening to this episode, your next company may be in an SEZ. If an SEZ sounds like a good idea for you and your company, how do you pick the right one? If there are thousands of them worldwide, which one is right for you? Thibault shares his theory on this! Wondering what business best suits using an SEZ? I talk to Thibault about this exact thing. &nbsp; HOW TO REACH THIBAULT SERLET https://www.openzonemap.com/  https://www.adrianoplegroup.com http://www.thibaultserlet.com &nbsp; RELATED EPISODES  192: Building Free Private Cities Around The World – Peter Young 202: What Is A Startup City? – Francisco Litvay &nbsp; CONCLUSION This was a very educational and interesting topic for me.

202: The Startup City Concept: Francisco Litvay’s Insights
Francisco Litvay is the Co-founder of Settee, an internationalization company. At age 17, he moved from Brazil and, at 21, became a digital nomad, having been in more than 20 countries on 4 continents since then. He specializes in Special Economic Zones and Charter Cities and is an ambassador for the Free Private Cities Foundation and Head of Internationalization at the Adrianople Group, a business intelligence firm focused on special jurisdictions. &nbsp; TODAY'S CONVERSATION WITH FRANCISCO Today I chat with Francisco Litvay about the power of free cities and private cities and how they just work better. If you’re new to this idea, listen to the entire podcast, there’s so much we unpack. We discuss the possibility of creating a voluntary system of government and how that can help your business, how you can pay less taxes, and how free zones can help you move to different countries. And if you’ve ever wondered how each of my podcast episodes is connected, week after week, I’ll let you in on the secret during this show.   A fascinating conversation on the practicality of libertarianism, what are the big projects in this space really have legs, things that are up and coming and what Francisco is working on right now. Francisco and I talk about ZEDEs, the concept, and the value they bring to the world. We talk a lot about Honduras and what it will mean to the country, but there are many around the world.  We delve into other jurisdictions like Uruguay and the UAE, how their governments have handled special economic zones, and what the incentives are for businesses set up in these zones. You’ve decided that you love the idea of a free zone, and you want to participate; Francisco discusses the company formation side, the banking side, the living side, and anything you can actually do to increase your own freedom using this vehicle and this varies from country to country, so listen carefully. Special Economic Zones in Africa? Countries like São Tomé and Príncipe or Nigeria. Maybe these are great alternative countries and islands that we should look at? If you want to see where all of the special economic zones are across the world, basically every zone on earth, go to Open Zone Map.

201: Sustainable Living: How Agroforestry Investment Secures Residency
Today on the Expat Money Show we're going to republish a webinar presentation that I did a few days ago with my friends Ally and Patrick from EcoVillages. It was an awesome presentation, and we had literally hundreds of people on the line. I also know that there are thousands of people who listen to the podcast from every corner of planet earth, many from different time zones, who were not able to watch the webinar live, so by republishing it this way, everyone from around the globe can listen to this presentation. It is worth mentioning that Patrick made a special offer in the presentation which was set to expire a few days ago. I twisted his arm to get him to extend it by a week to Aug 22, 2022. This should give everyone a chance to listen to the presentation and be able to email him if you are interested. His team can be reached at [email protected] &nbsp; WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN THIS WEBINAR  I'm going to spoil the surprise a little bit, but Patrick made a very, very generous offer on this presentation… make sure you listen to find out what it was! This surprise had a set date of the 15th of this month, which just passed. I had dinner with him the other night, and I got him to agree to move that date just by a few days. Don’t miss your chance! What is ‘Agroforestry’ anyways? And what is the concept behind agroforestry? Before you can make a good decision, you really have to understand these concepts! We’re going to talk about a ton of really valuable things regarding this unique investment. Get your pen and paper ready! So if you guys want more information about all of this, especially after you listen to the episode, then you can send Patrick and Ally an email. I’ll give you the address in the podcast, keep an ear open for it. I’ve done this process myself, I know what you can expect is going to happen, so there’s no better place to hear this information than from todays podcast episode. Top 3 reasons why having a second residence is so important and what can happen when that’s not in place. We're going to be talking about how you can get a 2nd or 3rd residency in a new country, specifically residency through investment using agroforestry. We're going to be talking about what that entails, the immigration process, and how it is all viewed.  We're going to have a big Q&amp;A at the end of this session, so it’s vitally important to listen to the entire podcast so that all of your questions are answered.

In my heart, I knew this was the right move, and every week, with more and more listeners and as we grow, you all reaffirm my commitment to the expat life and helping every one of you to move offshore. &nbsp; HERE’S WHAT I DISCUSS IN THIS EPISODE Listen in to hear what happens when you don’t know what you want but just go for it, starting something that you really enjoy doing, and what the end result can be. I talk today about what I’ve been up to, what’s happening in the business, the new resources, the projects, and all the cool stuff out there to make your expat dream a reality. If you’re not an expat and want to be one, this is the episode for you. Exciting news about The Expat Money Summit later in the fall. What you need to do right now. Don’t wait or you may be very disappointed. Big announcements about our speakers for the Expat Money Summit; you’ll want to hear who will be there, so don’t miss this opportunity, and why it’s so important for you to attend, whether you buy a paid ticket or come for free, doesn’t really matter. You just need to be there. I share with you the updates on our project with 10 Eighteen Uganda, the organization that changed my life, what has been happening this past year, and with your support, what we can expect for 2023 going forward. So very inspiring all the good this organization is doing. I know you’ll want to be a part of this. Even though we have way over 6,300 members in our Facebook group in just under a year, you’ll laugh at how we get people to leave, saying goodbye on their way out the door. If you’re not part of our FB Group, now is the time to join. If you hate Facebook as much as I do, then you’ll be happy to hear we are talking about creating a group outside of Facebook. I’ll give you some of the details today. Peru. Is it the perfect place for an expat? Or is it the worst country ever?

What that life looked like and how having such a family can influence you. What life is like when you realize that everything you’ve ever been taught, about money, history, and physics, was all a lie and not actually true? We talk about humanity, spiritual energy, and interpersonal energy.  How a special code that the Gamble family has, overrides everything else in life and is one that you might want to incorporate into your life.

Great question for Foster, ‘how would you simplify the entire world situation into a sentence?’ Incredible answer. We talk about the ‘non-aggression principle and if you’re not sure what that is, make sure to listen today. I believe once you understand fully, this will become part of your day-to-day life. What is Mob Rule? I think you’ll be surprised how the government works and why this is so important to really understand what the consequences can be. Are you awake yet? What will it take to wake you up? This might be the episode that helps you get from there to here!

184: Your Offshore Escape Plan: Securing True Freedom
Today on the Expat Money Show I am going to replay an interview I did with my friend Tom Bodrovics from Palisades Gold Radio that went live a couple of weeks ago. I really enjoyed doing this interview and personally, I think I did an awesome job; however, not everyone in Tom's audience thought so. I got comments from people who really don't understand what we're talking about on this program or what we stand for Expat Money. But, I would say the majority of the comments were really good and I ended up getting some fantastic clients out of it and was able to help, what I would think, a lot of people. So I want to replay the interview for you and hopefully help you to secure your own freedoms offshore. &nbsp; IN TODAY’S EPISODE TOM AND I DISCUSS… If you’re still unsure of how and where my extensive experience comes from, and why I can do what I do day in and day out, you’ll get a ton of value from this interview I did with Tom.  Why I’ve travelled to so many countries over so many years. Do I do it because I love to travel? Listen in to find out. Why understanding and implementing good tax mitigation strategies can save you money, a lot of money over your entire lifetime. As fellow Canadians, Tom and I discuss the horrific acts that Justin Castro is implementing for Canadian citizens.  If you’re not worried about the Cancel culture, you should be, you should be very afraid. Your country could be next… Listen as we discuss the freest countries in the world, then…and now.  We chat about lessons we learned that might work today, but might not work tomorrow. Pay attention here. Diversification, what does that REALLY mean when we’re talking about your assets. You may think you understand, but I’m here to tell you otherwise. My best tips and tricks to legally open an offshore bank account in one of several countries around the world. Why paying attention to the pros when it comes to immigration policies around the world can make you a very wealthy individual. And when you don’t listen and take action, what can ultimately happen... The benefits of having an offshore bank account. Is it risky? We look at all of this in this episode, so don’t miss it.

183: Navigating New Norms: Defending Children in Woke Educational Systems
Today on the Expat Money Show I am going to replay a really special webinar I did last week with my business partner and friend, Michael Strong, discussing why mainstream education is destroying your children and how you can easily prevent this.  This is not a new phenomenon and I don’t see it getting any better in the near future. With such a bleak outlook for our education system, it’s time parents took control of the situation to provide the very best education available today. &nbsp; IN TODAY’S EPISODE WE DISCUSS… How problems with today’s brick and mortar schools, like masking, bullying and the woke culture are defeating the true nature of our children and what you can do to eliminate this kind of behaviour. Listen as Michael explains ideas of entrepreneurship and economic freedom and how your children can become great believers in peace and prosperity. Why a statement like ‘capitalism makes the rich richer and the poor poorer’ is so absurd. Learn what capitalism really is, and why it's so important for our children’s future. Michael and I discuss what teaching real history looks like, not what government-run schools demand their students to learn. It’s very sad. How censorship is destroying your child, and if nothing is done to correct this, why they will likely never recover from it. Is your child learning real skills that will help her to be the best adult she can be? Listen to why this is more important now than ever before. What Socratic is, why it’s vitally important for your children’s education, and most importantly, why our school is based on this premise. Catastrophic statistics for school-aged adolescents in the United States are off the charts. You will not believe these numbers, they are crazy!  &nbsp; RELATED EPISODES YOU WILL ENJOY 169: Best Foreign Language Learning Techniques, Strategies, And Methods For Shortcutting Your Language Learning Journey  163: Expat International School  <a style="background-color:...

Back in 2021, Chase Warrington was on my podcast, episode 157, so if you enjoy our conversation today, go and check out the episode I did with him. &nbsp; HERE’S WHAT CHASE AND I TALKED ABOUT IN DETAIL: Why there is not just one way to do things, and why it’s so important to find what’s good for you, find your peeps, your tribe and when you do, how it can change your life! Listen in when I talk about the very best thing I have ever done in my life, what that is and how you can be a part of it. I talk with Chase Warrington about how I started travelling over 20 years ago and why it became part of my life, the reasons why I can do what I do in this crazy world. The most important lessons I learned from spending time in a government-run school and what made me so passionate about starting my own international school based on totally different concepts and ideas. Listen in as I talk about my superpower! Why I am able to do the things I do and why I’ve accomplished so much in my life. You can have this too! The benefits of having an international family. What does that look like in 2022 and what will life look like in 20 years for my children? Why it’s so important for your children to speak multiple languages and how that is even possible for a 5-year-old child to speak English, Spanish and Mandarin fluently with German on the way, that has never stepped foot in a school. The 3 most important ways to recreate the social aspect of a child's life who attends school in a virtual world. How and why I became a freedom fighter and how I help my clients legally reduce their tax bill, using creative strategies and the benefits it has for their net worth and their investments. Chase and I talk about how our entire life is based on experiences, what those experiences have been and if you haven’t had great ones yet, why travelling the world can change your life forever!  For those of you listening today to my interview on Chase Warrington's podcast or any of my episodes with any of my guests, and you’ve heard the story of my childhood and how horrible my education was, you may wonder -  why am I so confident? <span...
