I have retired a year ago. I do have some savings. I couldn't afford my condo apartment and my car anymore. My pension covers only maintenance fees , municipal taxes , car maintenance and gas. Not much left. Almost nothing. I sold my apartment and bought a sail boat in Miami. Now I sail all Caribbean and live on the boat. No car , no maintenance fees and no bullshit anymore. Almost 70 % of my food coming from an ocean and I collect coconuts on isolated islands. The rest is canned food and some fruit and vegetables I buy when I enter the marina of different islands or on mainland. That's it. No rent, no tax , no bullshit.
My granddaughter was born with ptosis. She had a silicone sling inserted to lift up her eye lid when she was 18 months. Fast forward she is 7 years old and in need of another surgery but no surgeon in the U.S. can do anything except replace the silicone. I researched on line and found a surgeon in Spain that can do the surgery without using any materials aside from her own muscles. I told my son his first reaction was are you crazy I'm not taking my daughter to a foreign country to be operated on. So after a year of begging showing him information he finally agreed. They went last September to Spain had the surgery and she is doing wonderful! Why can't the U. S. Doctors and hospitals offer better solutions?
100% truth. I had the American life from college in the 90s to 2019, when I decided to work remotely and meet a girl in Greece. This wasn't an escape but rather an opportunity to pursue what you desire. Make a decision on how you want to live your life, meet a person that aligns with your values and build a family and legacy around those key aspects. Eventually, my permanent residency and all other parts just fell into place. I figured it all out at 48. It's never too late to live your best life.
I do this on a smaller scale. I moved to Mexico. Been here for years and I like it. Pay less, money goes further, and I like the people & the culture. My wife and kids are happy here. My wife is European & we have traveled around the world. Lived in Sicily & Bulgaria. Andrew is right. Step outside your comfort zone. With a positive attitude and a go with the flow attitude, you can be stimulated, educated and enriched by getting outside your bubble. If I was younger I would try to do more (71) but for me and my family, it’s been great. Listen to him, he’s telling the truth.
I moved to the US 5 years ago from Canada. Lived in LA, Austin and now Oklahoma. I’m so ready to leave North America. Must be better than this. Too much tax, corporate greed and constant political theater. Over it.
@@James09291 oh man, it was a process and technically still not 100% done. My wife is American but I ended up getting a permanent resident visa. I came to the us in 2018 and when it the time came for the interviews and whatnot, the pandemic started. No bueno. The only thing I can suggest is consult an immigration attorney. The one I used was amazing and wasn’t too expensive. Firm is called Richards Jurusik immigration law.
The UK treats people in dingies with no money or ID pretty well, better than their own citizens. So you could say they are following Andrew's advice too.
Blessed is the man (or woman) who grew up around the kitchen table with a wise Father who could invite his children to see far, to see the world and the cycles of growth and decline. And to learn we are not trees. Move to where you are treated best.
I'm a 68-year-old retired blue collar American. My wife grew up in what was then West Germany and we visit Germany occasionally. In my opinion,quality of life and freedom has declined in the US in my lifetime,but not nearly to the degree that it has in Germany since the 1970's when I was stationed there. I'm almost certain to live out the rest of my life in the small,rural US town where I now live,but if I were younger,I think I would be inclined to explore South America,Eastern Europe,and possibly Southeast Asia. Top of my list would be Argentina,then Albania and Malaysia. But,I wouldn't exclude Uruguay,Paraguay,Montenegro,Serbia,Georgia,Armenia,Vietnam,or Cambodia. In my opinion,considering leaving the US or Canada for any EU country would be insane,because every negative factor present in the US and Canada is far worse in the EU.
Rural ussa was mostly undisturbed last 5 years. Life as normal. Only big city asked you for 'papers please' and all of the business that asked for papers saw business decline fast.
I don’t agree at all. I’ve lived in both Europe (my whole life) and US for 2 years. The level of gun crime and feelings of being unsafe , plus non existent health care will never be better in my eyes than any EU country . Maybe for a wealthy person, US will be better , however for a regular person i would prefer EU any day.
@andertomsen some people prefer to be told what to do in life. It is OK that you are that person. Gun crime is pretty much non existent in small rural towns in the USA. Large cities are where the gun crimes usually occur, and that is largely due to drugs and especially ALCOHOL. In the EU, you can be fined/jailed for disrespectful speech. In England, over 3300 people have been imprisoned for speech in the past five years. The EU is waiting for you. It sounds like you were happier there. Have a safe move.
No, it's not true. Not even near 100%. I've been to many countries, including Asia, and I've been to many States and Cities in the US. America is a self-correcting country, and you still have choice among different areas.. But being French-American I wish I could work in France and I'm not allowed, that seems thoughtless. In 1870 there was a war with Prussia, so they left. This is how Nomad Capitalist makes his money, and a lot of this is propaganda and his marketing..
@@MrBagusbah I've traveled quite a lot and lived in many places, in America and beyond, including Shanghai, and America is first under attack because it's a wonderful place, mostly because of our amazingly thoughtful Constitution and intentions.. We have to stand up and push back back again, and people have been trained to be too nice!!!! That being said, as a French American I wish there were more French people here, or that I could work in France. I'm not allowed. They have a lifestyle and style I appreciate and want more of. Not the attackers I see lately. (I do wonder if they feel they are also under attack? They should also protect themselves again.)
I'm from Argentina and have no doubt this is a great place to live, kind of a sweet spot mix of contemporary, european, wild, peaceful, safe... I would love to help good people coming to live here, there's plenty! And we truly need more population...
In the mid 2000’s I worked with a lady in a care home that was very quiet but always pleasant and sweet, all her patients loved her calm demeanour and high quality care she provided. One of her patients pointed to a scar she had on her arm, this scar encompass her wrist to her elbow. I was assisting the resident with her medication and the lady with the scar was assisting with her compression stockings. The lady with the scar matter of factly, yet sweet and calm that she received the scar from a machete, while trying to protect her baby, who unfortunately was killed. Apparently she is a survivor of the Rwandan genocide. Whenever I feel I am having a bad day, I think back to this lady and her sweet calm demeanour whilst sharing a most horrific experience and realize I have nothing to gripe about.
Hi and regards from Poland. I went from Poland to Ireland (great place no doubt) for ”a while, short stay” and after 13 years there 😂 I came back to Poland. You’re right, cheers
I’m thinking of selling everything and becoming a retired nomad slow traveling around the world as I can’t decide on one place. I definitely have to leave Los Angeles soon.
A little piece of free advice. If you do it, make sure to have a plan C...take a little bit of your money and buy an acre of secluded land somewhere. I mean find a little lake or something that has small lots for sale, pay cash for it and hold onto it. If you bomb out, or go broke or if anything really bad happens you can always go there and start over with almost nothing. I'm speaking from experience. After years of being an expat, living in Asia. Covid and the government crushed both of my restaurants, and after it was just more slow decline until I said to hell with it and went home. Luckily, I had a few acres of remote property on a large lake with major river access that my mom and I bought years ago and never sold. We paid nothing for it and now it's worth a lot. So I'm building a small but nice home on it and we'll see...maybe keep it or sell it, but I can sail my boat out of that lake into another tributary, out to the Mississippi and down to the Gulf of Mexico if I so choose. Taking note from the housing bubble burst in 2008/2009, the only people who lost were the ones who owed a lot of money on their homes. The people who owned them outright were fine and now they're properties are worth double and triple what they paid for them 20+ years ago. My best friend bought a house for 120,000, didn't do much to it except paint and maint. and lived in it for about 12 years, with a $600.00 mortgage. He sold it for $219,000. and is buying a villa in Italy for $60,000 cash, to retire at 49yo.
I'm just a trucker who owns a new home and am well settled, But, I am terrified of the criminals who are trying to rule the world through the WEF. These elites scare the crap out of me. I don't have enough savings to invest in another country, and how do I convince my wife and daughter to get out of Dodge? Maybe I'll wait until the last moment, or go down with the ship.
@@SternDrive hi - I’m not selling anything - but if you want to do that - I could help. It’s not as scary as it seems if you go it step by step and leave the door open in case you want to retreat. But the way to do it is step by step. My knowledge is principally limited to Mexico. But I also have limited experience in Colombia, Bulgaria and Greece. Good luck - whatever you do.
If You daughter is a teen and up, You don't have to hurry, don't be scare, just prep, pray, hope and live a day at a time. You are an essential employee so You don't have to worry about that. An if your wife is Also and essential worker double great, if your daughter and your wife and You are getting organize with learning, prepping, You have family, Nice community, Friends, more pluses, Best think would have for You to find a piece of land around with other relatives of Friends and water and homestead.
Thank you Andrew... I listened to you 4 years ago and left Canada for Mexico based on your perspective. You were bang on then and you are bang on now! I'm grateful! I'm not rich and I did it. Now I see many people getting overwhelmed with the negative media and they fall for it. They get depressed and don't take action when action is necessary. I think this might be your best video so far! Outstanding!!
Yes!! Mexico! Why would someone remain a slave to $8-12k a year in property taxes..make your money in USA and leave. Drop citizenship. Property taxes in mx are $200usd a year.
We appreciate your kind words! It's empowering to see individuals take action and create positive change in their lives despite challenges. Keep going, and thank you for being part of our community!
My best friend lives in Mexico and has been there for 3 years. She introduced me to Andrew and NC because he inspired her to immigrate. I started listening 2 years ago and left the US last year. I have dual citizenship so I’m staying here for the moment. Nomad Capitalist is a great resource and inspiration for making the first step for sure.
Once the government stops caring about or being afraid of (meaning wanting to make the people in which they represent happy) their citizens suffer. America is no longer a country ruled by "the people."
Probably the best of the 20 or so videos I've watch of yours. The America of the 60s/70s when I was young was fantastic, now it is a mentally sterile, unfriendly pit of never ending violence. I took a trip to Asia and thought I'd be gone for 3-4 months. I stayed for 10 years. Went back to the US and could not wait to leave. So sad to see the decline of a once great country.
@@GreaterGood2024 I've visited half of the ASEAN countries, stayed several years in Thailand, now headed to Cambodia to stay for a year or so. Malaysia I've visited many times and really enjoyed it. Vietnam and Laos are next on my list to stay for 6mo-1 year. I can't recall an unpleasant situation in my travels in this area...except for immigration... :)
I am originally from Bulgaria but in the US for 40 years. Thinking of going back since I already speak the language and it would be an easy transition.
Am considering this one myself. Met a Bulgarian woman so visited the country and it appeals to me as somewhere where the distrust of government is high and things happen with cash.
The US is going through a rough patch. If constitutional freedom is a priority and concern, most nations seem to be going through a rough patch. I am running from global authoritarian control. But where to run too? As a Canadian, I have had to come to terms with the fact that Canada does NOT have a constitution that is capable of protecting Canadians from the global agenda. As an independent farmer, food and water sovereignty is critical and something I wish to preserve. I have reviewed several nations, looking for a place where I can enjoy water and food independence while remaining relatively secure. Every nation I research has the income divide widening and therefore the risk of civil unrest increasing. "Where do I want to be during a civil uprising?" is a reasonable question to ask. The results of my investigation has surprised me. The US constitution is one of the best in the world. Rural Americans seem passionate in their willingness to defend it. I have concluded that it is safer to move my farm to a rural US state, than to outside of North America. I'm open to alternative viewpoints.
I am a Canadian, left in my early twenties as I did not like how things were going then (over 20 years ago). Moved to the USA. Have lived on different coasts here. Live in a rural town now. Things are not going well here either. I would re-think your plan. The Constitution is great on paper, however, it is being bastardized. It's just a piece of paper now. I don't see people here fighting for anything. They're too complacent, busy with their electronic devices. I'm speaking in general terms. It's not every single person. People in Congress do not represent us. The two parties are just different sides of the same coin, serving their overlords. We are not far behind what is going on in Canada. Just my two cents. Good luck to you!
@@nectarfrost Mexico is run by the cartels and your freedoms there exist only at their pleasure... if you're in your twilight years it may be safe enough, but it's no place to plant a family.
I agree with you. We have the best constitution in the history of the world, that's why Soros, CCP, Blackrock, WEF and friends are trying to destroy it. It's absolutely worth defending.
Thank you so much for that very precious knowledge you share with all of us. Personally you literally changed my life since my first day following you at Nomad Capitalist, you gaved me hope, confidence and so so much more! I'm actually living in Canada and seriously planning about moving and because of you I feel a lot more confident doing it. God blessed you and your team🙏
@@freeandhappy I seriously considered moving to Belize because I knew Mennonites who had lived there. But they chose to return to the U.S. and their reasons were sound.
Because of this channel, I moved from Canada to Mexico and recently met an American Jew who also follows this content and is now living close to me in Mexico. Running from degeneracy and towards opportunity
@@MrJohndolphin Where did you go? TJ? I'm in Cancun and there are lots of 1st worlders living here too since the city has everything (costco, Mcdonalds, Walmarts, Uber, ... ) and is safe in the middle income areas.
@@MrJohndolphinMexico is 2/3 the size of the USA, so seeing one place doesn’t give a full picture. It’s like seeing downtown LA and thinking that the whole USA is a war zone cesspool.
Reminds me of the first time I took my family to Mexico. My wife asked me "Why don't we need to wear seatbelts". I responded "Because this is a free country"
Probably one of the best episodes ever. Only thing I wish is that this was more accessible for people of moderate means. That's the hitch that surely trips many up.
Could you please do a video on what someone with VERY little capital could relocate to? Someone with less than $50k, no business and limited/average skills? Thank you
I've moved to Sochi Russia 2 yearw ago with my wife and 2 daughters 3&5... best decision ever!!! No wokeness, No white guilt, No WEF etc, very clean, safe and pro family.. My business is doing very good - restaurant, the switch from Jupiter Florida was big yes but all worth it.. Russia is not the 3rd world country the West is lying about, infact most cities I've been to so far is way better then US cities... China is also a good option been there twice I think it's way ahead of USA !!! In all aspects...
If you think that Russia has no WEF, then you're gravely mistaken. Russia is under WEF control too. For example, de-industrialization, de-ruralization, de-population, they had the vaccine mandates in Russia too, and are now building bug food plants, and importing people from Central Asia to replace ethnic Russians, abandonment of rural areas and forcing everyone into the cities, just like in South Korea.
Yeah, how did China treat their citizens with the Covid lockdowns and lock ins to include constant testing, jabs, and hauling people away to camps. All for their good of course 🙄
I would love to see a video focused on what people with little to no money can do. I live on Social Security and little to no savings. I have managed to engineer an escape to the Philippines. But what are some alternatives when you don't have $1 mill to throw around. I know it isn't the demographic you cater too, but it would be a nice thing to do.
I think you have made a good choice. If you are not a fan of hot and humid, do a search on "cooler climates to live in the Philippines". There are a number of hill station towns where the elevation keeps the temperature more moderate.
Back in the 1970s I had two elderly neighbors who lived off their social security by having a place in Mexico. They still had a house in SoCal. But they primarily stayed in Mexico. That might still work if you pick the right area. Find ExPat communities with a lot of Americans living in them.
From what I've seen, Mexico because the dollar is stronger than then peso. There's Americans living in random parts like San Miguel. 2nd is Malaysia. There's the Malaysia My 2nd Home visa. Only requirement is you have to show proof of income and medical insurance. Everyone speaks English so you don't have to learn another language. I'm still researching about where to move to in Europe because I like the landscape.
Citizenship should never be an obligation. Sure there are obligations that go along with it but a country should endeavor to make being a citizen desirable. The US has absolutely killed that desire. The level of taxes in the US and many countries started revolutions. Now we blindly obey as the govt taxes un into poverty and tells us we owe more. And we have become blindly obedient to the govt. It is very sad. I wish my wife wanted to leave as bad as I do.
agreed but no offense you're the reason i have 0 intention of getting married, imagine your entire life being held back because your woman said no lmao grow a pair man you have 1 life and you're spending it holding yourself back being submissive to a partner...
@@MissBabalu102 I dont have a lot of sympathy for the morons here who would vote for sand if they were dying in the desert because the “smart” people told them it would be good for them. I was in the Army. I did my part. Not sure it was worth it. I would have given my life for this country. Not anymore. Not for people who dont know what bathroom to use.
Taxes is not the worst part. The worst part comes when they lock the borders and start drafting everyone. Happened in "democratic Ukraine". I think any government would do the same if people in power are threatened. I think in our days one has to choose their destination very carefully. These things happen overnight.
How tf is Canada 1st in the freedom rankings. Are metrics like “number of peoples bank accounts frozen when they disobey” not used in the calculation of the freedom formula?
Wow. Way to knock it out of the park Andrew! That only is this probably your most honest most hard-hitting and most philosophical video but it is your best sales video of all time! This is due to your absolute unvarnished honesty. You keep up the good work and when I'm ready, I will give you a call, hopefully sooner rather than later.😎
I go where the wind blows . And keep my small 12 meter sailing yacht ready to go to sea at a moments notice. I spent the first 2 years of covid free as a bird. In south east asia.
I'm in South East Asia. Did you come into ports during those 2 years of covid? Movement Control Orders were implemented in Thailand, Malaysia and others during those 2 years so how did you cope?
We are Ex Pat Brits who moved to Canada 20 years ago but the last 8 years here have made us consider moving again. That said we are retired now with a very comfortable retirement lifestyle / income and travel the USA in the winter. We will be going to New Zealand next winter for 3 months. Basically you need to travel as much as possible while you can because life is so short.
@@goldbrick2563 Travel opens ones eyes. Have you ever met people who haven't travelled? They appear to know only what their locality expects them to know.

@@Mr196710 your statement 'what their locality expects them to know'...i think may apply pre-internet if one didn't read books.

@@goldbrick2563 Good advice but to have a better understanding of the world one needs to see as much of it as one can. Otherwise you only have a narrow perspective?
I’m an American retiree that left the US 7 years ago. I have two perspectives about leaving. One is that I’ve live there 60 years so why not try somewhere else? Or, two, other countries have a lot of good things to offer me at this stage in my life. The US just doesn’t compare well to those countries. In the US I got a great education, had a great career, saved some money and earned a pension. Those are all good reasons to go to the US or grow up in the US but now that I am retired and financially independent I find that the US has a lot of strong competition in the world when it comes to satisfying my current retirement life wants and needs.
One thing I will point out (and it will not be popular) is this is really only a problem if you want to live a lifestyle that costs lots of $$$. If you are living minimally on a small income in a rural area, no one will care and taxes won't be much of an issue. My family has lived in the same village for at least 1000 years, mostly as subsistence farmers and they lived a pretty good life. There are a bunch of people here on YT that live in relatively desolate areas in places like Arizona and pay something like $80/year in property taxes and that's it. So, that's another way to avoid all this. Save up a bunch of money (yes, it will be taxed while you are earning), move to a really cheap place and keep your lifestyle very minimalist.
Yeah the concept of homesteading is really taking off. But I ultimately believe that homesteading and moving away from the West are sister ideas. They both express a need to leave the social degeneracy and totalitarian global policies for a local community driven society.
That doesn't hold true though because I live very rural in Florida. In 2020 people from all over started moving here. We don't have the resources for it (hospitals, veterinarians, doctors, roads). Property taxes shot up. Now insurance. Now those same people aren't happy here so are moving to Appalachia and doing the same things to them. Meanwhile properties are underwater in Florida. Figuratively and sometimes literally.
People did this in many states and got socked with horrible fires burning up their area every year. They moved to small towns and started small farms and are now being extorted by local governments for water rights licensesure at high application fees and labyrinthian paperwork. They moved to poor states with few laws and building codes and after getting established find local governments imposing rules that mean they have to tear down their off grid systems. They built small homes in rural areas and then faced local governments telling them a small home doesn't meet building codes. They sold their farm goods to reasonable people willing to support and trust them only to have local bureaucrats use drones and enforcers to spy on them and fine them and to destroy the food they sell to the willing members of their coop. These are not isolated situations. These are our real freedoms being suppressed.
Andrew keep doing what you do best , both inspiring people and helping people to go where they're treated best . I get inspiration from your words every time . Enough to , at 65 , make a permanent move . Thank you
I live in an ethnostate where we speak our own language. I have alliegance bound by history, culture and blood to my kinsmen. Americans were taken from their respective tribes many generations ago so they dont understand and/or have forgotten about things like this.
Instead of running away, please support those trying to stop the bad guys. Door to Freedom created by small country doctor has been working on stopping the WHO's pandemic treaty. We can win if we work together.
What are you doing to support trying to stop the bad guys? For me it's more like running to freedom, running to housing security, running to universal healthcare. I'm kind of tired of the comfortable liberal asking me to support when I haven't been supported by them for 40 years while they made their nut.
the first part of empire was conquering much of north america-fighting with native tribes, the french, the english, the spanish/mexicans and then moving in settlers, building cities, exploiting natural resources, growing a military
I am expanding my business into Europe from the US and also moving later this year. Not everything is perfect over there either but I feel a lot better when I'm spending long amounts of time outside the US. Regardless of finances it's just better for mental health.
I don’t think the people in the US worry about other people around the world doing well. I don’t think anyone has anything out for the non-American. I certainly don’t and I don’t think so poorly of my fellow Americans. I don’t think Americans are sitting around the kitchen table, saying to each other. “Boy I hope the people in Nigeria are suffering”. Anyone who thinks that is projecting their own hearts and minds onto others.
Not about hoping they do bad but in their mind they think it'sthe case. I'm in Africa and we're doing better off invaders should stay in their place stop thinking about others.
This country has been headed in a bad, bad direction since 1947. If I had the money (I'm retired) I would skedaddle to Croatia or another Balken country. I would not hesitate. This isn't the country in which I was born in 1951--and it's scary.
Agree completely with the Nomad Capitalist premise, however, in the interest of accuracy the US wasn't an empire in 1776... the British "re-invaded" in 1812, burning down Washington DC. Through the 1800's the US hardly had a military capable of defending its own borders. The early 1900's was the beginning of empire with Teddy Roosevelt, gun-boat diplomacy and the Federal Reserve. Not saying things aren't going down hill as they clearly are. But the "empire" is only about 125 years old. Just saying.
You are 100% right. I have been to 10 countries, and EVERYWHERE was nicer than the US. The only reason I am still here is for aging parents. I will never retire here. We are not cared about and became lazy and complacent. Travel and learn everyone,there are wonderful things outside of the borders!!!
Take your parents with you. I convinced mine to leave with me but it wasn't easy, they were the mentality there's nowhere to go that's better and we have to be patriotic fighting for the country.
My mom is 86 years old and I and my wife are her primary caregivers. If I could convince her to get on a plane, we’d be on a plane before Christmas ‘24. FTR, I’m partial to Colombia. People say to me, “It’s too dangerous!” I live in Baltimore, MD, known amongst the more cynical as “Bodymore, Murderland.”
Great video! I had the chance to travel to over 20 countries and lived in some of them, I agree with you. I go where I am treated best. What is the personal benefit of being patriotic? Who benefits from your patriotism?
Thanks Andrew, I am an immigrant in the US, I did it at the right time, but ready to lift wings again. I see this Country getting so autoritarian & ridiculously expensive. There arent any goos jobs here for my children, some say will follow me. Thank you again for opening more horizon for people.
We are New Zealand citizens and we have lived in Colombia for five and a half years so far. We have never regretted our decision. Colombia has a leftist government right now but the Congress keeps a brake on the worst excesses so we aren't too worried. Only another 2 years to go!! By then we will be 79!!
Bravo ! Finally an honest view on this world we live in. I've travelled most of my life and North America isn't the best place to live in many ways. Many of my friends left to other countries and never looked back. You don't have to be a millionaire to leave your country lol. Go to a place which ticks all your boxes which you'll find more opportunities, better weather, and peace of mind.
My problem today as a 69 year old retired police officer and a patriot is we need to put our country, people first in our foreign policy.....no more foreign wars unless our Soverign Country is threatened. Have a military defense second to none, reset to our own gold backed cuurency, engage in fair foreign trade that is best interest of our people and busines, return to a limited Federal Government and return much to the governnent that is closer to the people aka States and local government and protect our business first as does the rest of the world their own citizens. Pause immigration expell current illegal foreign citizens then we will emerge again. Oh no national police. Keep them local......limited federal power. Lical education not political indoctrination....education.😊
The reason you drew a blank when you talked about the UK election was because we the UK citizens did not vote for Rishi Sinak. It was the elite's that voted him in not the people. Also its funny that Rishi's has step family ties to WEF
The real question is: if I just "identify" as an EX-US citizen can I stop paying taxes? Our current administration should support this & my new pronoun "tax'free'me."
@@QDogg IMO, the main thing that keeps us trapped, is our own unfounded fears. What you had commented on was if a person decided to renounce their U.S. citizenship. But for 99% of us, that's not even necessary to NOT pay U.S. taxes when living/working overseas. The Foreign Earned Income Exclusion allows one to _Exclude up to _*_$120,000_* or even more if housing costs are deducted. One still needs to file, AND pay SS/Medicare (which is minimal), but the BEAUTY is that one's income of $120K U$D (key: US dollars) earned - not taxed - in almost every other Country on earth, spends like $500K to $1M per year. We call that geo-arbitrage. Living abroad, even in parts of Europe, one can live like Royalty, and even then one couldn't find a way to spend it all.
It's not really that hard, a countries economic prosperity is based on its exports. The west imports everything, I look around my small town that once had G.E/ paper mills/ leather/ steel. All of which are derelict buildings. The surrounding towns falling apart or torn apart by drugs and gangs. The only business left are Globalists sized fast food and groceries siphoning money out of the community. Everyone holding onto this idea that their country is gunna turn it around and fix it all is, to be nice, is lacking awareness and has probably never traveled. Andrew been watching your videos for awhile now and I must say I really enjoyed this one a lot. Your candor and cadence sprinkled in with some humor and personal experiences was spot on. When nomad starts offering CUPID packages is the day I get a little concerned, just point me to where the sun raises on smiling faces and sets to the rhythm of fun music.
I Love your knowledge and delivery . I have no money, other than my well earned pension but i travel mainly in Asia and Malaysia because I can't afford to live in my own western country 🤷 I love being a nomad at 70 😂❤ For sure Andrew if I every came into money You would be my number one adviser 🤩🙏
History repeat: I am Peruvian, during the War Wold 2, Peru didn’t participate directly, BUT it was with the allies, SO, because of it, they (and other countries too unfortunately) put the Peruvian JAPANESE in concentration camps… and took away from them, their personal assets (business, etc) IF, a WAR happens again… and you are from US, AUSTRALIA, or UK living in another country that support the enemy of your country (China or Russia for example) WHAT MAKE YOU THINK they won’t take your assets away from you?…. You will come a target in that country, the more money you have, more attractive you are for the country you will be living in… it’s not conspiracy… it happened before (Remember what happened with the Jews in Germany?…what happened with the Assets of Americans living in CUBA during the Castro revolution and then, WHAT happened with the foreigners assets living in Venezuela during the first decade that CHAVEZ started “the revolution”… And by the way, something similar happened in my country (PERU) during the 70’s when a Lefty Militar Government took the power and take away the land and business of American, Italians and English that invested in Perú… If it happened before, it can happen again. Even if you are living in ASIA or MIDDLE EAST that probably they will side with CHINA and not with US… Don’t go to ANOTHER COUNTRY where you can no get A NATIONALITY, even IF you can gen Residency. Act wisely. By the way I also have America. Nationality, and I know what I am talking about. Once one time. Act wisely.
I have lived and worked in several european countries and for me is shocking when I moved back to the U.S. many americans couldn't understand, or maybe couldn't care less, that life in general is far better compared to the U.S., some obvious well known examples in Europe are better safety, better higher education and far less costly, better healthcare system, better FOOD !!! ... Americans ask me how can be possible, I tell just go and see for yourself. I could think in general european governments are more socially conscious and their citizens hold accountable a lot more their gov officials, in contrast to the U.S. where politics are for sale, big corporations rule, all about money, hard working americans dumped, pay taxes for nothing, public infrastructure falling apart, you're on your own. Americans need to wake up from cultural and geopolitical isolationism and really, move where you are treated best. Andrew thanks so much for sharing your great very inspiring life experience. All best.
As a Canadian, I am thinking of getting a permanent residency in Serbia/Montenegro since my online business partners are from there. I have traveled in 65 countries (thanks to Olympic sports and Cirque du Soleil) and speak fluently French, English, and Spanish. I am also thinking of South America, which I know very well. I will see how Milei will turn out the country, Argentina, and love Mexico. My criteria: Not Anglo-Saxon, not hot and humid, rich culture, and where I can speak the language since meeting people is a passion.
Indeed, Serbia or Montenegro could be promising options for you, given your criteria. However, navigating the process can be intricate. If you need personalized guidance, feel free to reach out to our team. We're here to assist you every step of the way. nomadcapitalist.com/apply/
Serbia and Montenegro, not a bad idea. Miliei had already the director of the CIA to visit, wants to join NATO an use the US dollar. Libertarianism sounds great, but in the case of Miliei it just means handing the country over to multinationals and his Zionist friends. I am afraid it will get very bad rather soon....
@@ktrimbach5771 yep. The clever Jews all left early and got revenge by building the first nuke. Too bad for both them and the Japanese that Germany had already lost by the time they finished building it.
I completely understand your view point 👉🏾. Most Americans have not even traveled outside their own State to see another States in the Republic. When you travel, it opens your mind up to possibilities. Being an entrepreneur is totally about possibilities. Mindset is key.
My children, who are U.S citizens and under 24 love the opera, love sailing, love making music, love being self employed…..you just knew the wrong people when you were growing up. I’m not arguing that the U.S is ideal, but I am saying there are civilized and culturally intelligent U. S children. It has nothing to do with me, their mom. I don’t like the opera or sailing and I can’t sing a note. But I am self employed and have been self sufficient my whole life.
The 250 year lifespan of empires is something that has always interested me. My question is when did the ‘American Empire’ actually begin? Was it 1776? Westward expansion? The end of WW2? You could argue that the US was just a humble republic for at least some of its existence
If the American Empire doesn’t begin until 1945 then it probably has quite a few more years ahead of it (assuming 250 year lifespan). I say this as someone who is generally bearish when it comes to the US politically and economically
I think the end of WW1. Great Britian was severely economically wounded by the war and only went downhill from there. WW2 and later the Suez Crisis in 1956, was the final nail in the coffin.
I agree that things don’t look good at all but surprising things happen. The renaissance of the early Roman Empire and the Augustan age was preceded by the chaos and civil war of the late Republic. That being said I have no attachment to a particular outcome and definitely would not put all my eggs in one basket
Agree with everything you said! Though wish you would've talked more about specific countries that are likely to ball at WEF plans. El Salvador comes to mind
Thank you. I truly enjoyed this video. I woud like to know more about country rather than city living in more retirement-supportive areas. Freedom is clean food are most important.
Wow you have nailed exactly How I feel about most of things, Wow what a affirmative feeling of knowing I'm not alone You hold the very spirit heart that USA's founding fathers had in their time, and I'm not American, but this's what I love from you all
Here an unconventional tip to know if in your country WEF's control is high or low. Check in the last 50 years if the production (and consumption) of beef declined or increased. There are some other metrics observational only but beef is the top indicator in my opinion. By the way in the entire west and especially in USA it decreased by a lot but in Asia the opposite.
@@marie-joelleraussouWEF has four commandants. Eat less red meat, own less cars, fly less and do not procreate. (They actually say those things) So check what countries in last 10-20 years increase the red keat consumption, buy more cars than used to be, fly more for tourism and they don't have population collapse due super low birth rate and increasing of uncontrolled immigration. South east Asia is in top spot but east Asia and south Asia are also relatively ok. Europe is done, USA barely.
By far your best episode!! Left Germany 22 years ago for America. Now I’m gonna move to Mexiko. Your content definitely helped me to make this decision. Thank you
I am a US citizen by birth. My wife of 20 years is a US by naturalization, and a Vietnam citizen by birth....a dual citizen. I remember growing up and seeing on the news how bad Vietnam was. I have been to Vietnam in the last 20 years, with 2002 being my first time in Vietnam. I have seen Vietnam transform for the better. The country that was once poor and and pariah under a US embargo now it a high tech country with Intel having one of it's largest overseas operations there...Intel...a US company. Vietnam changed dramatically and so fast! Vietnam will be my 2nd home pretty some. I have been there so often. See you in Vung Tau Vietnam soon where my wife and I are planning to buy a house... currently our secondary residence, but will be our primary residence soon.
I immigrated to Canada in the late 60’s . Built a business, employed hundreds of people over the years, paid millions in taxes, sometimes millions in a single year .Sold the business, and now with less than a year left on my contract and ready to retire. I am waking up to the fact that the government portray’s me as the villain in society and wants to take the rest of it. If it wasn’t for my kids I would be leaving this place!
Andrew...I appreciate you so much!! I'm sitting here in Canada, having shuttered my retail shop and trying to figure out my next move, ready for a big shift. Your information is empowering, opens my mind's eye up to new ideas... thank you so much for your service.

I love your knowledge and delivery ❤ I have no money only my hard earned pension . I love being an adventurous nomad at 70 😎 I travel mainly around Asia and Malaysia because I can't afford to live in my own western country where they don't care that their elderly have to decide between keeping warm , paying rent or eating . Stop moaning and being victims people . Andrew if i was ever to come into money , you are my number one adviser ❤
I can see the honesty and genuine intention of Andrew in wanting to help others improve in matters he is expert in…and he often considers a wider perspective and goals, which many people often missed. There are so many self proclaimed “expert, gurus, master, adviser, bla bla bla” out there and if we see and hear them with both of our mind and heart, we can see the different in their intention. Andrew speaks what he knows and what he believes with honest intention, as opposed to those who speaks to convince which often involve ommission and exxageration.
