“I’d rather leave a couple of years too early than a day too late” - Nomad Capitalist Next time I’m in light conversation about current affairs, I’m dropping that in.
As a person from Ukraine where men 18-60 are stuck for indefinite amount of time and risk getting drafted any moment now, this is so true that one needs to leave VERY early.
Could you imagine 4 years ago you would be making videos on a topic as frightening and radical as this? America is really changing for the worse. Happy New Year.
When you run a top-bottom system it involves keeping everything as is no matter how much the world is becoming more advanced and innovative you have to keep things as they are.
And as a Jewish American myself the options of where to go are limited where I feel safe - usually the calm before the storm results in Jews being expelled or blamed for society collapsing
As a Swiss and European, I would choose any South American country. South America was not or only slightly involved in the two world wars and was therefore very suitable for a refuge, and basic supplies are also secure.
@@ch3rrikiss That's right, but you shouldn't forget that there are three key players in the world who can influence the future of a country, be it through development, global taxation or other things. Unfortunately, every country other than the three is influenced in some way by one of the three.
I'm a big fan of South America. But there's a lot of crime as it is. In the event of serious economic collapse it could descend into pandemonium very quickly.
@@ch3rrikisswich country? And what you consider instability? There are some bad examples as Venezuela. But the majority of the south american countries still stable in terms of democracy. Just take a look into Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay, Chile and soon on. Of course that there are populism and polarity in South America and it is a fact but this is what we can see around the world. As a brazilian the places I recomend are Brazil south region (Santa Catarina, Paraná and Rio Grande do Sul), Uruguay, Argentina, Paraguay and Chile. And avoid big cities, go to country side cities.
This really hit home in 2020. As a Canadian, our freedoms were really restricted and the government really didn't inspire me to stay. My wife and I were in Nicaragua at the time when the pandemic was starting, their attitude was way better towards the vaccination choices. It was sad that I felt safer in a third world country than a first world country. The other thing that resonated with me was the fact that you don't have to worry about good quality food in that country. In Canada, 5 months out of the year, you need to import nearly every type of food as opposed as Nicaragua, you just drop a seed in the ground and it will grow.
@@MariA-bu2jv Not sure where you obtained your information but they never had a vaccine mandate in place? Their website says that it will test those that have symptoms and require quarantine if tested positive. My wife and I travelled there in 2020 and were required to submit to a fever test and a Covid test which we tested negative for. I know that some countries (including Canada) were publishing some inaccurate information about travel requirements about other countries.
How was your experience in Nicaragua? Would you consider obtaining residence there? I travelled there twice (last time was 2019) and I'm seriously considering it as a permanent residence. Canada's future looks ominous.
@@julieorr8365 I would get outa New York for a start. Head to Montana. If it gets real bad, sneak across to Canada, then to Alaska, then if it gets real bad you can get into Siberia.
I'm Brazilian and I live in the south of my country. There are great places to live here, especially small towns with a strong influence of Italian and German immigration. My wife and son have Portuguese as their second nationality. I could go in search of Italian based on the origins of my ancestors but I opted for Portuguese due to marriage. I always advise people to have a second nationality. Having a second nationality such as Argentine or Brazilian also has the advantage of allowing you to move or live more easily in any Mercosur country.
A good friend of mine from south of Brazil tracked her Italian ancestry and got her documents and now lives between Italy and Brazil. Only downside is it took a long time for her to get her ancestors family roots and all the documentations.
@@bigtime911 Of the three states in the Southern Region of Brazil, the best are currently in the State of Santa Catarina. Especially cities in the West. Regarding cities closer to the coast, I would recommend Jaragua do Sul, which also has a strong German influence as in the West. Some from the interior of the State of Rio Grande do Sul and Paraná as well, which have a strong Italian influence. But in terms of states, the best currently is Santa Catarina. And they are closer to Uruguay, Paraguay and Argentina, with easy access. What would I absolutely not recommend to foreigners? The State of São Paulo (except for some small cities in the interior), Rio de Janeiro and regions above on the map. Don't be fooled by tourist propaganda. Rio de Janeiro is disorganized and has high crime. The State of Santa Catarina has great beaches. I would even say better than those in Rio de Janeiro.
Brazil is not neutral. Stop pushing Brazil as if it is neutral or safe. Brazil already became a dictatorship. Military service is mandatory in Brazil. There is no actual private property in Brazil and now government is getting its hands on everything abroad. Brazilian politicians are in bed with China. You can be arrested in Brazil for saying "the wrong thing" in europe or any other country. Run from Brazil.
@@bigtime911, most southern Brazil cities were founded by Italians or Germans. Nevertheless, I would settle in Sao Paulo state countryside because it is far more developed.
@@timlinatorThe guy is serious, the more immigrants getting the Irish passport will result in the reputational standing of that passport decreasing, this is very obvious when you see the standard of person coming here now so many criminals.
Being South African, I can understand why at the moment it's not an option, but I am surprised the continent of Africa is not an option with 50 plus countries? Namibia and Zambia for example would be great options.
Everywhere in Africa sucks compared to South American, Asian and Australian options. If I had to pick Id go Botswana, but even there the life expectancy is lower than India
You are Rocking Truth and Awareness at so many Levels, Thank You Andrew ! Following You for many Years as I Grow and step into where We are Treated Best.

I always was proud to be argentinean, but now I’m so relieved I am! And although I live in Germany, I didn’t opt for the citizenship (Germany doesn’t allow dual ones so I’d lose my argentine one). Things are getting weird in Europe, it comforts me to know me and my family can go to my country if a war starts. Sounds selfish but I’m just so relieved…
@@JenniferLogsdon-if7wq No, it doesn’t :) Argentina is an amazing country, the people, nature and food too. We don’t have much loneliness there, we still have that community feeling, which is hard to find in other countries. My partner is German and he went with me last summer, he’s now in love and wants to plan going back there asap, to visit but also live in the near future, as we live in Germany but this isn’t German anymore and only gets worse, and the war in Ukraine is close. When we were in Argentina, the people in my town would greet my partner with “wilkommen!” And ask him right away if he was German, some would try to talk to us just out of curiosity for him. He was pleasantly surprised by the openness of the people☺️ As for Buenos Aires it is gorgeous, a mix of spanish and french architecture, many parks and things to see. Food is excellent. The only thing I’d recommend is to go with a job overseas, because their salary is between 300-400usd monthly and with that money it’s a very tight life there. Good luck🍀
You cannot lose your Argentinian citizenship. Therefore even if you sign something you can still keep your Argentinian passport while acquiring the German one…
It will become the star of Latin America thanks to the new capitalist president Milei. Shame that Brasil has fallen back into the hands of criminal communist Lula, puppet of the globalist socialist elites.
In the case of WW3 then forget anything in the northern hemisphere. There's no way that WW3 goes down without escalating to all out nuclear war so places like Switzerland and etc in Europe will be a death trap. Anyone like this dude recommending Switzerland, Norway, Austria etc is just out for your money, not your safety. Even if it's not a full-scale nuclear exchange then all of Europe will become a death trap. You will suffer one of the more horrid deaths there is, starvation.
One of the few vlogs, which makes you think what future holds for us and are we really prepared for the next big event. May God Help, Guide and Protect us all. Happy New Year 🎊🎊🎊
Almost anyone can reduce spending, get a second job, start a side hustle, deliver pizza. If the desire to save is there, you can make it happen...even 50 dollars a week is 2500 saved up in a year.
If it goes down, everybody gets drafted! They don't care who you are if you're going to the front line.. My uncle was in all 3 army's during the Yugoslav war (not by choice), depending on the location he happened to be at that time.. And he is not the only one, it was fairly common army practice.
it is true, all wars are just some men profiting from immesurable suffering of others, nothing more even if they cleverly disguise the reasons of the war with some moral crucade
War profiteering is a morbid reality, but it's not the reason for all wars. And it's definitely not the reason for world wars. War is basically a tool of negotiation. And it's usually centers of power trying to assert their influence or access to resources. One reason Americans enjoy so much wealth is because the US is extremely successful in using violence to assert it's influence.
Not "all" wars but I agree that the crusades were the last moral just wars. The wars from WW1 onwards until today were immoral and unjust. I'm excluding Putin's special peace-keeping operation which is a just moral crusade that stopped the genocide by Ukraine's Nazis and the West's EU and US fascists (Obama, Kerry, Biden, McCaine) but which the German Fascist Empire "EU" are trying to escalate into WW3 to complete Hitler's dream of "a European Empire dominated by Germany under a socialist tyranny expanded to annex Ukraine away from Russia as the German race needs room to grow". The Demonrats and RINOs are keen to have perpetual wars of regime change trying to topple anyone who isn't a puppet of global socialist billionaires, whilst personally enriching themselves with their shares in weapons manufacturers and investments in war funds by Blackrock and VanEck.
You are 100% correct Andrew! Things are 1/3 the price down here in South America compared to the USA. People are nice, google translate for Spanish is great. I am treated really nice down here.
@@OhohohTST The key is to create a business that can be done remotely, most people don't want to work for local salaries. Only some things are less expensive, many things are the same or more expensive. It all depends on one's lifestyle. Cars and durable goods are more expensive in Latin America, but insurance-apart from Uruguay which is even more expensive than the SF Bay area!-and labor is definitely more affordable. If one looks at local salaries and the rent they pay, income to expenses is lower in m home state of California.
For those in the US or can't afford a new citizenship yet. Move to rural towns away from cities. Try to be in a country that doesn't have nukes that is safe. As much as possible.
food to islands? they grow & raise their own where my parents come from like the comment about Nicaragua on this video there's no need for American imports considering there's foods grown & raised here made here that is banned in many countries with or without wars our food industry here is not the healthiest & the whole world also know this dietary details.
Did you forget about how quickly your local grocery stores sold out of almost everything during Covid? When overland transportation is even slightly affected it’s stunning how quickly we’re affected.
Your comment is funny b3cause you grow so much that you don’t need imported foods , yes you need wheat flour and canned stuff ..but if you’ve lived on a Caribbean island you’ll know how much food you can grow .
South America always has been a safe bet through history. Ireland and Switzerland can afford to be neutral because they are surrounded by countries which belong to Nato and they are at peace with them but they can be easily destroyed if they are attacked. Geography is all that matters in case of disaster. Having a passport and a piece of land in Patagonia, Uruguay or South of Brazil and you are safe from almost any political disaster if you are in survival mode.
The fact that you made this early so others can get thinking (and a potential head start if they didn't have one) is both a testament to your helpfulness and downright terrifying that it even has to be talked about to begin with.
His business benefits from people being afraid and wanting other passports 😊. That’s why he made it “early.” In reality, no one is safe anywhere during WW3. People forget that. Likely, only some pockets of indigenous people will survive in such a scenario.
Very few people suggest you become a proficient sailor. Under free wind power, you can relocate nationally or internationally, and under duress, you can do it without papers or money. 200,000 Cuban and Lybian refugees prove the point. Oh, and fish dont care whose land they grow on.
@@badactor3440 "Statistically speaking, driving a boat is safer than driving a car. Boat operators are 30 times less likely to die in a boating accident than drivers are to die in a car crash in any given year."
You have to consider how you, as a foreigner in a country, perhaps one where you don't speak the language, is going to treat you in the even if a global war or collapse. What happens if law and order breaks down or reduces?
My whole family got Italian citizenship over a decade ago, we haven’t used it, but like having the option of so many EU countries…for when California finally goes down the crapper lol
Love your perspective and advice, to hell with whatever the critics have to say. Andrew you and your teams advice has been life changing for me! You have a great outlook on the world, thank you for your insight!
Most people won't be able to enact their bugout plan in time. WWIII, like most wars, will be a surprise to the commoner. When you hear the nuclear warning signal, break out your finest Kobe steak, get drunk on the finest wine or spirit you have, smoke a fine joint, and cook that steak and eat it before you're cooked. Go out in style!
Ever live on a SMALL island??? NZ produces nothing but cows, various dairy products, sheep & a bit of semi decent wine - it has none of the poisonous critters that Austraila has and a decent year round climate.. those are the main pluses - the downside is a very limited number of jobs, high costs, economy is 80% imported products and limited number of people…
@@rljohnson776 I live on a small island with >90% food imported. New Zealand food imports in 2022 was 11.1%. However, I hear you, high costs and limitations as low population.
Being British and Irish is kinda handy. Ireland never joined America and Britain in its wars in the middle east and it's a member of the EU, so an Irish passport let's you live, work, or retire in any EU member state. Not sure what advantages the British passport gives you, though. I thought it would be percieved positively in Israel, but I'm not even sure about that.
@@scuffediceposeidon9178 chile is the most developed country in latin america, I guess you are a brainwahed person that does not have knowledge of geography and quality of life
During COVID while US citizens couldn't fly into EU if not vaxxed, my family and I were able to travel thanks to having 2 passports. I have two, my wife has two and or daughter has 3 nationalities. We also have a home in Argentina. I was even thinking of selling it as it is in the capital and buying away from civilization, in a small town further down south, with some land to be able to be self sustainable.
@@stevenhenry5267 Lost your way from the herd? You sheep. If you are into being forced by your government to do things, that is fine by me. But don't stick us all in the same pot.
Mexico is a neutral country. The Mexican passport is accepted by most countries without a visa. Mexico, i will be food and energy sufficient soon due to AMLO. Currently México's self-sufficiency is not seen with good eyes by the USA. México has a problem in case of a world war due to its proximity to the USA.
The Republic of Ireland (ROI) may not be a good option due to its proximity to the UK and facing similar social problems. The ROI is supposed to be neutral but its neutrality has been compromised by being part of the EU who are proceeding forward with defence structures and creating a military. It is essentially the Germany of old by other means and with a different name. Even before the ROI joined the EU, and despite not being part of NATO, it already had its ports on the nuclear target list in the event of an exchange with NATO because the Soviets didn't want those ports being used by the UK or NATO as a backup after a major conflict and exchange. I know that Cork, Drogheda, Dublin, Waterford, Bantry, Shannon Foynes, and Galway are all likely still on the nuclear hit list. That is a lot of population areas of the ROI. Both the UK and the ROI would be a no-go area after WW3 because there wouldn't be many bits of land remaining that didn't suffer the initial blasts and consequences from the subsequent fallout. London would likely be hit with three nukes. And other sizeable UK cities with two. All the airports, sea ports and military bases and infrastructure would be hit. There were articles in the British press a number of years ago saying that Whitby would be one of the places that would be okay to be in after WW3 but what they failed to take into account is that it is right next to Fylingdales in Yorkshire which is an early warning radar station which would almost certainly be one of the first things to be hit so I think that was very bad advice from the tabloids. Any survivors would have to evacuate and likely leave both countries after such a scenario. Anyone caught up in it would need to stay indoors and preferably underground for at least three days after and preferably one to two weeks. And they would need to take Potassium Iodide or Iodate tablets straight away. The UK is one of the few countries in Europe that has not distributed the tablets to households for such an event since Russia invaded Ukraine. It would not be possible to get them after it would be too late then. The best countries to head to after would be ones that can support and feed their populations without relying on imports. There are not too many if any of them in the Northern Hemisphere that wouldn't have been caught up in WW3 and the aftermath of it. The best countries to head to are all in the Southern Hemisphere. I suspect the Royal Family would be evacuated to parts of Canada that hadn't been affected or more likely to Australia or New Zealand.
For the fact that the Royal family is present there would be the reason why those places will be targeted. Not a good idea to be around European Royal families during WW3.
Ireland definitely isn’t a neutral country in the same way Switzerland is. It’s definitely western/nato aligned, and while it supports Palestine over Israel, they still condemn Russia for invading Ukraine. Problem with the EU is that you lose sovereignty to the European Union courts that make your policy decisions on your behalf.
He's probably talking to his clients but most people watching can't afford to be his clients!😂😅🤣🙄👍 Still it's good for ideas. For most westerners who aren't millionaires+, it's probably Thailand or Philippines though.
I have a Japanese passport which ranks 3rd in countries we can travel to without a visa. And (colonial past aside) does not engage in wars since WW2. But most Japanese do not speak languages aside from Japanese at a business level or above, so it would be a severe disadvantage.
I think I’ll stay put, I realized over the course of nearly a decade through countless infantry deployments to Iraq, Afghanistan, Niger, Mali etc… that, I don’t have a conscience, no hint of PTSD, depression or anxiety/impulsiveness whatsoever despite being in direct combat, experiencing IED’s, casualties etc… I actually enjoyed being in the Marines, I doubt I’d be as bothered as much as most so it’s no point in running anywhere. I’m now a surgical PA, I believe if a full on conflict occurs, my skillset will be in high demand so I’d basically be able to name my price. Why not? Unconscionable service for an unconscionable war? For the rest of you, yes, you might want to leave if you don’t enjoy the smell of feces & burnt meat.
Chile, of course. Impossible to invade from any side, advanced, stable, geografically isolated, strategically neutral, haven't had a war for the last 200 years
While Chile hasn’t been in war for a long time, their neighbour Argentina sure has so I wouldn’t say the whole region is safe. Also, Chile is by far the most American aligned South American country, so I’m sure a few adversaries won’t exactly be happy with their close ties.
Malta less involved? 😮 Tell you don't know history and don't understand warfare without saying it 🤣 Malta and Cyprus turn into aircraft carriers during wars, they are the two key locations in the Mediterranean Sea 😁 Just like Gibraltar and Istanbul. They'll be the furthest from neutral, whether they want to or not
World War Started in 2019 , the world is already 4 years in. World War 3 looks different than previous world wars because the weapons systems used to wage global war is different than previous. You have biological, conventional, cyber, nuclear, and the unknowns weapons available. The only system available in previous world wars was conventional weapons.
The most important thing is geographic location. It has to be physically out of the way. Iran was an unimportant neutral country during WW 1 and 2, but was invaded both times (by the good guys) due to its location. The food was simply taken for the war and huge numbers of Iranians died.
It’s clear to see that the passports that doesn’t rank the highest nor that doesn’t have the most visa free entry countries.The low ranking passports there economy is more economically stable or becoming more economically stable.
Day after tomorrow there is no more Visa Free travel to a Brazil from the USA. This was in place before and now back in place. You must apply by paying a fee, showing 2k in a bank account and all transactions for the past 30 days. Although not as convenient as what I’ve been spoiled to but I can totally support this idea and makes sense.
@@michaelbaker5501 Not really. It makes perfect sense today as it did before. Visa free travel to Brazil was only in place from 2019 till 2023. If you have 2k in your bank and can pay an $80 application fee that’s good for unlimited travel to Brazil for 10 years, then what’s the big deal? Many other countries are not spoiled by visa free travel as the USA is. That is changing and if war breaks out, even more so. USA is also losing their credibility with other places right now due to a few factors that is discussed frequently by Andrew on this channel. They also want to detour the people that are coming, maybe overstaying, and being a burden instead of contributing. Broke Passport bros culture is just about over also. They had this in place before 2019 and it in no way caused a loss of tourism or money. Quite the opposite. It’s about quality, not quantity. Finally, Brazil is the 7th largest economy in the world with a Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of U$2.4 trillion-equivalent to more than 40% of Latin America's economy. Brazil is the 7th largest consumer market in the world and by 2023 will be the 5th. In the last decade, 30 million Brazilians ascended to the middle class. U.S. Americans are arrogant and entitled to think we should always have visa free travel everywhere. Brazilians have a very difficult time traveling now to the USA because of Brazilians who violated their visa agreements with the United States in just 2017. Had the US not made it difficult to get a visa in the first place I suspect the visa overstay would be substantially higher. The US is not the only country that does this. The Philippines, for example, allows citizens of most first and second world countries to enter visa-free. However, citizens of India have an unusually high overstay rate which is why The Philippines requires Indians to get a visa to go there. It has nothing to do with race or anything like that. It’s all about the numbers. If your country has a high number of people breaking the rules then the authorities have to take action to reduce the amount of rule-breaking. I hope this helps.
@@mtngrl5859 If you want residency anywhere in the world you must prove financial solvency and most countries a federal level background check. So yes, they will need to know your personal affairs. USA being even more so highly facist on personal affairs before you can get a visa to be there, if that is your idea of it. Also securing borders during wartime is very personal.
One consideration for myself is that Canada has the ability to freeze assets and bank accounts, meaning I could be bled dry of every penny for leaving during a war. I have considering accumulating more Bitcoin as it is one of the very few "assets" that can survive such. The gov would have to breach dozens of international laws to get my bitcoin wallet seed from my brain
Forget the official passport, a hidden, well maintained and fuelled up ultra long range flying boat with fuel dumps along the way would be my passport for my family and bodyguards.
I don’t know about the flying part, but I know many people with sailboats who plan to use their boats as their last refuges, complete with solar powered batteries and all.
Mexico may not be totally neutral but I think better than USA or Canada and I’ve got residency now I’ll be moving next year God willing. Also eligible for UK passport but wouldn’t want to live so close to Europe etc
Dropped down to 3rd this year in visa free travel countries but absolutely still one of the strongest. And does not have an aggressive military so I can see how it would be valuable.
@@kojimasan1714prone to natural disasters like the recent earthquakes and the impending threat of China invading Taiwan and the surrounding islands are a constant worry for Japan
The passport is not the issue if a world war breaks...the question is what assets you have that you can take with you i.e gold/silver, Bitcoin, cash or diamonds
Very important point. Passports are great but once you get to your "safe" alternative country, then what? You need to sustain yourself/family. A business or better yet, some skills like construction, plumbing, electrical, welding would be best since they are very valuable in any country.

Keep this very important point in mind: In the event of a nuclear detonation, the hemisphere that the device was detonated in will become radioactive fallout ridden. For example, let's say that a nuclear device is detonated in Ukraine; -in order to escape harm's Way you need to get out of the northern hemisphere. In that case you want destinations that are south of the equator. In speaking of this matter, make sure you have potassium iodide on hand always.
@@sircartier2260 it's greatly helpful in protecting body from nuclear radiation poisoning (Google it.) And it must be taken right away, so if ur trying to buy it after the blast it's gonna be too late
@@sircartier2260Potassium iodide is used to treat overactive thyroid and to protect the thyroid gland from the effects of radiation from inhaled or swallowed radioactive iodine. Seafood, eggs, milk, and milk products are among the best sources of iodine. Fruits: Few fruits like Strawberries, Cranberries and Pineapple are an excellent and rich source of iodine. Beans: Green beans and navy beans both are called for their high iodine content. Some portion of green beans included 3/mcg of iodine that caters to 2% of the required a quantity in the daily diet. P-I Tablets can create problems if used when not required by the body so I call it an emmergency suppliment. Best to research when to use them.
