Travel Adventurer Visits Every Country In The world! Not Once But Twice! Gunnar Garfors is a Norwegian media professional, traveller, and author who has circumnavigated the globe, visiting every country in the world. Not once, but twice!  Author of Nowhere, his newest book walks us through the 20 least visited countries in the world. The first time for Gunnar Garfors was on May 8th, 2013.  He entered the 198th and last country, Cape Verde, as a  37 years-and-344-days-old, which made him the youngest person to visit all the countries of the world while working full-time, or as a hobby traveller.   Recently, he became the first person to have visited every country in the world TWICE.  Consequently, while accomplishing this amazing feat, he has set several Guinness World Records.   Guinness World Record ~  5 Countries on 5 Continents in just one day ~  19 Countries in 24 hours ~  22 US states in 24 hours     Travel Changes You Gunnar Garfors says he's a Globetrotter and seeing the world has opened his eyes in so many ways that he would like to inspire others to do the same, or at least travel more.   We hear that a lot from our guests that are avid travelers.  They all agree, Travel Changes You!  And almost always for the best!     Travel Makes People Unite We've had some pretty awesome guests on our show.  With Mikkel being such an avid traveller himself, he loves to hear stories about exotic and unknown countries.  In Ep 60: Doug Casey or Ep: Frank Bures - we talk about dangerous adventures in Africa, really a fascinating episode.  If you haven't listened in yet, definitely go back and enjoy!   Nowhere - The 20 Least Visited Countries in the World Gunnar Garfors newest book, Nowhere - The 20 Least Visited Countries is due in Norway bookstores this April.  The rest of the world will have to wait until later this year!  The concept behind his new book Nowhere is to showcase the 20 least visited countries in the world.   Mikkel does his very best to figure out which 20 countries out of 198 are the least visited!  It's quite funny really as Mikkel manages to figure out about 1/2 of them.  Gunnar Garfors talks about a few in this wonderful interview. He recounts stories of how he got into some of these war-torn countries and lived to tell the tale.  Countries like Comoros, Africa getting 28,000 visitors a year. Why don't more visit this tiny island nation?  What's there to attract tourism?  What can be done to bring more tourists?   If countries like Comoros, or any other island nation interests you, you must go back and listen to Ep 031: James Ellsmoor as he talks about small island nations and the problems that they deal with today.   We talk about the South Pacific.  Countries you may not have heard of, and why most don't go for a visit. It's usually not that they are not beautiful in their own right, it's usually infrastructure, government policies, etc.   Have you always wondered what countries like Iran and North Korea would be like to visit?  Mikkel and Gunnar have both been...fascinating how they both felt the same about these two beautiful countries.   How about South Sudan, Yemen or Somalia?  What does it take to enter into these countries? Are you somewhat interested?

Is Speculating Evil? Generate Additional Streams Of Income As An Independent Speculator. Lobo Tiggre is the founder, CEO, and principal analyst and editor at Louis James, LLC and The Independent Speculator.  He has dedicated his work to the causes for free markets and individual liberty and is currently a member of the board of directors of Liberty International.  He is a writer and publisher with many books to his name, along with co-authoring two of Doug Casey books from International Man; whom he worked alongside with for 16 years writing under the pen name ‘Louis James’.   Speculator "a person who invests in stocks, property, or other ventures in the hope of making a profit" I know many of you want to know if it's safe? are there risks involved? how much money can I make? or lose?  Do I need a University degree to be a Speculator?   What Does It Take to be a Top Notched Speculator? Lobo Tiggre explains what makes a great speculator.  Is it different than a gambler?  What are the important distinctions between the two? When you hear the word 'Speculator' what comes to mind?  Mikkel Thorup and Lobo Tiggre discuss this as a profession or how becoming a Speculator could be an additional source of income. We talk about how Gold is mined?  where is it mined? What does gold mining look like in the beginning, with the Geologists and coming in contact with illegal miners.  Lobo Tiggre tells a story about how creative locals can be when they believe there is something of value in the land they own.  In Africa, many countries have a rule for artisan miners.  If you can dig out of the ground by hand on your ancestral grounds with hand tools than that's free for you.   Lobo Tiggre in front of the Reverse Ziggurat in Africa   Additional Streams of Income After 67 episodes of The Expat Money Show, we have a few recurring themes with our guests and that is how to create additional streams of income. As an Expat we feel that it's important to have at least one additional stream of income and there are so many to choose from.  In Episode 058: Pete Sisco, we talk about how to start an online business so you can safely leave the rat race.  In episode 044: Ian Bond, we talk about E-Commerce and Drop Shipping. This episode with Lobo Tiggre is another way to add additional streams of income. Becoming a Speculator.  I believe you will really get a ton of value from this episode, so make sure to listen to all of the stories that Lobo shares with us, they are really incredible. Even in episode 036: with Jim Rogers, he explains why these types of professions are so important!   Who is Louis James? "Louis James” was legendary speculator Doug Casey’s protégé at Casey Research for almost 14 years, until early 2018. By 2007, he was writing and making investment recommendations in Casey’s flagship newsletter, the International Speculator. Now he brings his experience, his connections, and his deal flow directly to you, without the barrage of marketing hype used by larger p...

Free Private City Project in Honduras and Alternative Investments in Walnut Farms Overseas. In this interview with Christoph Heuermann, we talk in detail about Libertarian concepts like his association with the Free Private City Project in Honduras; plus, alternative investments in Walnut farms overseas. Christoph Heuermann has been to 140 countries as of this interview. That's pretty impressive for sure, and along the way, he does his best to understand the culture and the way of life that each country offers.  When an alternative investment presents itself he has a better understanding of how the idea can play out.   Libertarian Concepts So the theme for today's interview with Christoph Heuermann was to look at alternative ways to make investments.  Most would consider these Libertarian concepts.  Things we were not taught in school, and not taught in University economic classes.  So where do you learn about these Libertarian concepts?   Great question for our listeners!   Alternative Investments "Alternative Investments are investments or funds that invest in asset classes other than stocks, bonds, and cash.  The term is a relatively loose one and includes tangible assets such as precious metals, arts, wine, antiques, coins, or stamps and some financial assets such as real estate" Christoph Heuermann walks us through how he defines Alternative Investments and the risks involved.  Risks can be anything from the local government buying back the land you've purchased, or bad weather for agriculture.  Listen in to hear more!   Investing in Walnut Farms Alternative Investments like investing in walnut farms may seem like an unusual concept, but as we listen to Christoph Heuermann talk in depth about how it all begins and how each year plays out, we can get a feel for why so many leave the traditional investments and look elsewhere for healthy returns. Walnut Farm   Free Private City Project After listening to this podcast regarding Free Private City Project in Honduras, you may be asking for more.  If we could go back in time, even 50 years ago, and invest some money in Singapore or Hong Kong, would you do it?  Of course you would!  Free Private City Project could be just that; the twist will be the Libertarian concepts applied.  Take notes from this episode, lots to learn!   How to Reach Christoph Heuermann www.tax-free.today christoph.today personal blog   FINAL THOUGHTS Fascinating interview with Christoph Heuermann from Tax-Free.today.  I'm certainly intrigued about the Libertarian concept of the Free Private City Project in Honduras.  I truly believe that this interview will help many of our subscribers see a brighter future.   If you would like to stay up to date with all new content that comes out at The Expat Money Show make sure you sign up below for our newsletter; EMS Pulse. – My behind the scene daily correspondence where I give you all the intel as I travel the world and build my business, develop key relationships and invest in non-traditional investments overseas (very profitably I might add!)     Sign up below!

'Internationalizing Your Life'  Today we chat about why and how this can be done, from the beginning of deciding this life is for you, to implementing all of the steps for yourself.  Here are a few of the ideas you can look at to see if internationalizing your life is for you: * Cost of Living in your current home city * Monthly outlay, examples: mortgage, credit card repayment, car insurance * Health Insurance Cost * Also, never think you can't afford it, you can afford it!   Travel is Fatal to Prejudice, Bigotry and Narrow Mindedness, and Many of Our People Need It Sorely on These Accounts ~ Mark Twain 1869   Once you start traveling and seeing the world, the way others live, you start to question how you were brought up, what the governments have been telling you; most importantly, our schooling.  Besides that, we have thousands of different ways to see culture, and there is no right way or wrong way.   'Learn By Doing' - Doug Casey   You can learn more about Joel Bowman and his work at InternationMan.com   FINAL THOUGHTS This interview is a real-life model of how to internationalize your life with Joel Bowman and I thoroughly enjoyed our conversation.  The how-to episode for those that don't think they can do it.   If you would like to stay up to date with all new content that comes out at The Expat Money Show make sure you sign up below for our newsletter; EMS Pulse. – My behind the scene daily correspondence where I give you all the intel as I travel the world and build my business, develop key relationships and invest in non-traditional investments overseas (very profitably I might add!)     Sign up below!

Grab our brand new infographic report called "15 Global Strategies to Protect Your Wealth" for free that Joel and I created.   Interview with Joel Nagel Joel Nagel is an internationally-recognized lawyer, visionary, and strategic thinker. He has been featured in countless business publications across the world and quoted in U.S. News & World Report as well as in Forbes Magazine. He is the founder and managing partner of Nagel & Associates, LLC, which specializes in international law, estate planning, global commercial transactions, and asset protection.  And has been the Ambassador to Austria and other countries in Europe.   What are the Offshore Markets? We start the episode off with two important definitions: What is Asset Protection? and What are the Offshore Markets?   Investopedia's Definition of Offshore "What is Offshore? - "Offshore" refers to a location outside of one's national boundaries, whether or not that location is land- or water-based. The term "offshore" may be used to describe foreign banks, corporations, investments and deposits. A company may legitimately move offshore for the purpose of tax avoidance or to enjoy relaxed regulations."   I ask Joel Nagel some questions like: "Why do you use the offshore markets? Is there anything illegal, dodgy, or unethical about using the offshore markets in this manner?"   What is Asset Protection? Investopedia's Definition of Asset Protection: "Asset protection is the concept of and strategies for guarding one's wealth. Asset protection is a type of financial planning intended to protect one's assets from creditor claims. Individuals and business entities use asset protection techniques to limit creditors' access to certain valuable assets while operating within the bounds of debtor-creditor law."   I also ask Joel Nagel some questions about asset protection like: "Why do we need asset protection? Why don't people just use a normal asset protection lawyer and keep things onshore, or inside the USA?"   Hear how Joel Nagel describes asset protection and why he decided to practice this field of law, and the very personal reasons for doing so as it will help you understand why asset protection is so important.   Estate Planning Joel talks about how using the offshore markets and international trusts are more than just asset protection. Estate Planning is often just as important and is one of the three main reasons people go down this road. Listen in to the complete episode to hear the third major reason you might want to consider the offshore markets for more than just asset protection. Hear how the offshore markets can set your family up for generational wealth with Estate Planning and how you can responsibly pass your wealth on to your descendants.   How To Protect Your Assets In this interview with Joel Nagel, we go into depth on multiple strategies you can use to make creditors double think about coming after you and attorneys terrified to even consider suing you.

Author of In Gold We Trust Report Talks Predictions And China's Role In Gold Markets. In this episode of The Expat Money Show, we speak to Ronald Stöferle, author of In Gold We Trust Report.  We talk about the relationship between The Austrian School of Economics And The Gold Standard.  Also, China's Role In Gold Markets, and his Gold Prediction 2019.   Ronald Stöferle Ronald Stöferle is one of four managing partners in Incrementum AG, an independent investment and asset management company based in Liechtenstein. They specialize in a holistic form of asset management and professional portfolio management for retail investors.  Along with his partner Mark Valek, they have created an annual gold report, In Gold We Trust Report, which is the gold standard of all gold studies.     The Austrian School of Economics And The Gold Standard I ask Ronald Stöferle about The Austrian School of Economics and the Gold Standard and their relationship together.  Ronald explains it is not so much about gold and the gold standard.  The Austrian School of Economics is a way to look at investing in general and how investing and monetary flow fits into our world. Listen in to hear Ronald Stöferle's views on The Austrian School of Economics and the Gold Standard in his own words.     China's Role In Gold Markets China's role in gold markets is extremely interesting.  Obviously, we know that governments like China are using gold as a way to hedge against inflation, and as Ronald Stöferle explains in this interview it's pretty much a non-secret that China holds a considerable amount more gold than they are reporting to the rest of the world. Listen to Ronald Stöferle's stories of visiting Shanghai and his opinions on China's role in gold markets.   Gold Prediction 2019 We discuss not only gold predictions for 2019 but also for 5 and 10 years out. Will it be 5k an oz? 6k an oz? Listen to today's interview with Ronald Stöferle to hear where he thinks gold is heading.  And as importantly, WHY he believes it will go in that direction.   In Gold We Trust Report In Gold We Trust Report is the gold standard in gold reports. Last year it was downloaded more than 1.7 million times and is available in English and German (2019 will also be available in Chinese). The report is now more than 230 pages long and has taken a team of analysts months of work to compile. Listen in to hear Ronald Stöferle explain how he has tried to incorporate an Austrian School of Economics view of the world in his report and how he uses fun easily understood examples of the value of gold in relation to things like the price of 1L of beer at Octoberfest in Munich, or gold in relation to the price of a ticket to Walt Disney World. Ronald Stöferle and his team do a fantastic job of explaining gold in a way that anyone can understand.  I guess that's why the In Gold We Trust Report is so wildly popular! Download your copy for free and learn more about what Ronald Stöferle and his team do here: https://InGoldWeTrust.report     FINAL THOUGHTS Obviously, by listening to this episode, you will see I am massively into tracking and understanding the gold markets and how it relates to the financial affairs for Expats around the world.  I see this as a worldwide currency that combats out of control governments from completely eroding our wealth. One of the best ways you can store your gold and silver is through an

CPA Gives A Masterclass In How To Renounce US Citizenship. In this episode of The Expat Money Show, we interview Oliver Wagner to talk about a very controversial subject.  That is,  how to renounce US citizenship. We get answers to questions like: Why do people renounce their US citizenship? What is an Accidental American? How To Renounce US Citizenship? What are the pros and cons of renouncing US citizenship? What are the tax implications of renouncing US citizenship? and How much does it cost to renounce US citizenship?     Notes on Today's Interview with Oliver Wagner You may be asking yourself, is this for me?  Let me tell you, this is not for 99% of the population. However,  for a certain portion of my audience, it is extremely valuable.   In my research, I've found a lack of reliable information for American Citizens who want to renounce their citizenship.   We get into details why some people choose to do this and I am not saying people should do this, but for certain Expats, it really does make sense.   Americans are taxed on worldwide income no matter where they live… so it can mean tens of thousands of dollars in taxes every year.   I will also tell you that this interview is really dense.  It is a Masterclass in how to renounce your citizenship, by a CPA who does this every day, all day.   This interview is so packed full of information I decided to have the entire episode transcribed.  This way you can go through it carefully.  The transcription is at the bottom of the show notes for today's interview.   To access the transcript for this interview, go to the bottom of the page and download the PDF.     Who is Olivier Wagner Today's guest is an IRS Enrolled Agent and CPA (Certified Public Accountant) who specializes in tax services for US expats.  He is the best selling author of ‘U.S. Taxes for Worldly Americans' and with his company, 1040 Abroad, his goal is to eliminate tax anxiety - by helping expatriates become US tax compliant.     Why do people renounce their US citizenship? There are a whole host of reasons people renounce their US citizenship.  The main reason is the tax implications.   Oliver Wagner explains that it is often not the taxes themselves that people owe money for.  It is the fee from their CPA or accountant who must file their tax return every year.   Add to this all the yearly bureaucratic paperwork that goes into filing your taxes,  renouncing your citizenship makes sense.   Make sure to listen in to this complete episode with Olivier Wagner.   Or you can download the transcripts at the bottom of this page to get the full explanation.     What is an Accidental American? Who should consider renouncing their US citizenship? An Accidental American is someone who has dual citizenship and does not live in the USA. Perhaps they never actually lived in the USA at all.  They may have been born there or one of their parents are American, so they are subject to citizen-based taxation.  Or, as it is often referred to as worldwide taxation.   If you are an American citizen or American green card holder and earn more than $10,000 a year it is your obligation to file a tax return no matter where you live in the world.   If you are an American taxpayer and live as an Expat feel free to fill out the form at the bottom of this page for recommendations on a competent and trustworthy Expat CPA,  like Olivier Wagner,

An Expat Anarchist Explains How Blockchain Can Replace Government. In this interview with Bobby Casey, we talk about the definition of an Anarchist and how blockchain and anarchy give you true personal freedom. We also touch on the definition of a Libertarian and what the differences between this and Anarchy is. Bobby Casey is an expat anarchist who believes that blockchain is the way of the future, creating smart contracts for just about anything you want, and a way to replace the government.   Like so many of our guests, at 19 years old, Bobby Casey only lasted 1 year in college before realizing that this was not how he wanted to spend his life, taking 4 years of college to start working for someone else.  Coming from an Entrepreneurial family, Bobby Casey was destined to become a leader, to help others live a better life.   After many attempts and failures, Bobby Casey hit a home run with a company that grew into an $8 Million venture.  Then something happened that no one saw coming.  A new company on the block came along with a new, better software platform.  In Bobby Casey's words: they got their asses kicked.   His company, along with a lot of his competitors, could not compete and eventually many of them shut down.  By the time these large companies realized that this new company with fantastic software couldn't deliver, it was too late.  The good news for Bobby was that he sold his venture for a nice profit.   So with money in hand, he recalled family dinner topics.  Like, 'how to properly structure an LLC, asset protection, and investments'  Even as a 14-year-old he was part of the family discussions and recalled them later in life realizing that he didn't want to pay high taxes, and wondered how he could protect himself from liability.   The Next Step Bobby Casey talks us through how in 2007,  his company Global Wealth Protection came about.  Where he started, why it was so important for him and who he works with.  As Bobby realized, he needed to plug his holes, so his friends were likely in the same boat.   In this interview with Bobby Casey we spend a ton of time talking about the Blockchain and Anarchy, also: * Crypto Currency * Gold & Silver * Stock Market * Overseas Real estate * Block Chain is the way of the future * Decentralized currency * Smart Contracts   What's the Difference Between a Libertarian and an Anarchist Answer: About 7 years!  As Bobby would say!  Once you've made the decision to become a Libertarian, it takes 7 years to make the move to being a full-blown Anarchist!   Definition of a Libertarian The definition of a libertarian is a person who believes in free will.   Definition of an Anarchist The definition of an Anarchists are people who want to live under their own authority. They are against having a political party making the rules.  Anarchists are extremely peaceful, but when pushed they will take action. Also, the definition of an anarchist is a person who rebels against any authority, established order, or ruling power.   Blockchain and Anarchy You might be wondering how Blockchain and Anarchy could solve the problems with how governments currently run, so we could move away from traditional government and no longer have lines in the sand. 100 years ago we had around 100 countries; today, we have 193...why?   How to Reach Bobby Casey www.globalwealthprotection.com info@globalwealthprotection.com
