Two interesting pieces of news from my trip to Belize to host last week’s conference in Belize City. The first one is exciting for anyone who spends time on the Belize mainland. The roads are being improved… well, at least the road from the airport to the city. In addition, a bypass has been built […]
When I first began talking about the idea of investing IRA funds offshore more than 15 years ago, people wrote to tell me I didn’t know what I was talking about. Couldn’t be done, they insisted… the IRS didn’t allow it. Today, an industry exists to help people take their IRAs offshore. Why would you […]
We’ve been making the case for Panama for nearly 20 years now, and we’re more bullish on the opportunities and upsides on offer in the Hub of the Americas than ever before. Panama could arguably be called the world’s best offshore haven. No doubt the country offers serious pluses for those looking for a full, […]
The offshore world is fast moving. Ever-changing legislation, regulation, incentives, bureaucracy, and market fundamentals mean that the best places to open an offshore bank account, base a business, or establish backup residency, for example, one month are not necessarily your top choices the next.

Life in the United States is fully figured out, leaving little room for the unexpected and the incalculable. Then there’s the overregulation, overreach, invasions of privacy, and poor government stewardship of the people’s money that dominate this landscape. For me, […]
Passive income traditionally comes in three categories—interest, dividends, and rent. For my own portfolio, I’ve long focused on rental income. A rental property can be a great cash flow generator. Over the last several years, I’ve expanded my thinking about options for earning rental income to include agricultural properties. Like a beach house or condo, […]
Even I… a woman who really prefers to do things for herself and by herself… have learned an important lesson: Life the way we live it is much easier with help. For Lief and me, life can be complicated. Our constant priority is diversification. This is both a risk-aversion strategy and a personal preference. We […]
