Portugal is the oldest country in Europe, with the same defined borders since 1139. Before that, it was part of the Umayyad Caliphate and the Roman Empire. The country is home to the oldest bookstore chain in the world, Livraria Bertrand, which opened its doors in 1732. Here, too, is one of the oldest universities […]
I haven’t been to every country in Europe yet, but I have spent time in nearly every one. I’ve also invested in many and lived in two.

You know my answer to that question: Look to property overseas. It’s the only all-in-one solution to diversifying and profiting across investment markets, geographic regions, economies, and […]
If you want to open a bank account in the United States, you walk into a branch of a bank and simply state that objective. “Hello,” you say as you take a seat across from the helpful banker, “I’d like an account with you.” Or, easier yet, you fill out some forms online and save […]
The need for a Plan B has never been greater. The question is… where? How should you choose where’s best for you to diversify your life, your assets, and your investments offshore? Factors to look at for any jurisdiction you’re considering include: Approach to taxation and tax rates Incorporation laws Privacy laws The stability of […]
Arriving in Medellín for last week’s Live And Invest In Colombia Conference, I was struck immediately by signs of the post-pandemic economic recovery well under way. Indeed, this country is roaring back. It enjoyed growth of 10.8% year over year for the last quarter of 2021. Returning to our neighborhood in El Poblado for the […]
