  • 354: Offshore Upside: How To Take Your IRA International
    If your retirement money is tied up in an IRA or a 401(k) and exposed to the ups and downs of the U.S. stock market, your retirement savings may be more vulnerable than you think. With growing debt, inflation, and political uncertainty, relying solely on Wall Street is becoming an increasingly risky strategy. That’s why I brought in Matt Calhoun from Equity Trust for a timely discussion on how to regain control with a self-directed IRA. In this episode, we cover how to use it to invest in foreign real estate and other real assets that can help protect and diversify your portfolio for the long term. IN TODAY’S EPISODE: Learn how a self-directed IRA is unique from most in that you can direct and manage your own portfolio, including the type of assets you invest in.  Uncover the wide variety of assets that you can own using self-directed IRAs, from precious metals to cryptocurrency to international real estate. Discover the very few types of assets that retirement accounts are prohibited from managing. Cross these off your list of investment ideas for IRAs.  Hear about the most common mistakes people make using self-directed IRAs so that you don’t make them yourself!

  • 352: Javier Milei’s Argentina: What It Means For Expats And Freedom
    While most world leaders double down on failed socialist policies, Javier Milei is doing the opposite: ripping the state down to its foundation in an unprecedented bid to restore individual freedom and economic sanity.

  • 350: Canada Suicide Note: The System Isn’t Broken; It’s Working Against You
    In this Expat Money Show episode, I don’t hold back. I’m going to tell you the truth about what’s really happening in Canada, and why I believe it’s no longer a place where you can build wealth or secure a future for your family. As someone born and raised in Canada, I’ve watched the country unravel. After visiting over 100 countries and planting roots in Panama, I can confidently say that it’s time to leave. This isn’t hyperbole, it’s economic reality. From confiscatory taxes to a state-run suicide program, the Canadian government is accelerating its war on prosperity. I break down the numbers, expose the agenda, and give you a real path forward. It’s time to craft your Plan-B while you still can. . . IN TODAY’S EPISODE: Discover why Canada’s capital gains hike to 66.6% is more than symbolism—it’s economic warfare. Learn how taxation, red tape, and public vilification have made Canada hostile to productivity. Hear why the Canadian dollar is failing by design, not by accident. Understand the truth behind the government’s own 2040 foresight report, and why it reads like a suicide note. Explore the real story behind MAiD (Medical Assistance in Dying) and how it exposes the welfare state’s collapse. Examine why voting won’t save Canadians, no matter the party—Carney vs. Poilievre is just theatre. See how universal basic income, CBDCs, and climate lockdowns are being preconditioned as “solutions.” Discover the best places to build a new life—Panama, Paraguay, and Costa Rica—and why they welcome expats. Get the truth about Canada’s proposed $25,000 departure tax and what it means for your future.
