  • Fintech apps are a great invention, but yours is probably in bigger danger than you think it is. They're almost always tied to a bank, and it's often a very small bank you've never heard of, making them only as strong as their weakest link. In Episode 155, we discuss which apps this affects and what you should be doing about it. Protect yourself.

      2 banks in my home country, one in the big 5, one relatively new doing great things. Wise for foreign currency, TWT for crypto, no bank in another country.

      Good setup. Check out remote bank openings as well, they do exist if you can't travel or get a 2nd residency.

      And BTW contrarians, if you are looking for a remote bank opening, go to part 2 of the Prepper's Checklist episode and click on MyLatinLife's link. He has strong hookups to Panama, Uruguay and many more.

      2 out of the top 3 banks in my home country, as well as 2 digital banks. 1 out of the top 4 banks in a country of residency. Wise for forex transfers. Just joined Revolut. Looking at bybit next.

    VP, thank you for this topic. Actually, I knew very little about fintech, however, having insight into the long-term usefulness (and danger) is valuable. You've given us a fabulous starting point. Enjoy Mexico. Again thank you.

    any formula and benchmark on to calculate whether a bank solvent or not?

    VP, what's your opinion on credit unions? I've been with mine for many years and never had an issue.

    • @NoNonsenseForex
      @NoNonsenseForex  25 днів тому

      Bullish. They don't do many of the insolvent things banks do. I would still absolutely diversify though, credit unions are typically quite small.

      Good app, and banked mostly by strong banks. I said before if people want to use them as another bank, it wouldn't be the worst idea.

      ​@@NoNonsenseForex They dont allow crypto transactions last time I checked. Trading 212 is a up and coming one in the UK. Similar to RobinHood. Mainly for buying stocks but also offers banking/card services. Daily pay outs currently at 5.2% per year. You can also lend your shares. Uses well known big banks too.

      It's too hard for me to say, I don't know the limitations out there. Fintech is probably a good way out if you can manage it.

    Hey VP, what do you think of moving to Thailand? Recently there’s an introduction of a visa specifically for digital nomads. Is it a good place for people like us?

    • @NoNonsenseForex
      @NoNonsenseForex  24 дні тому +1

      There have recently been some changes going on there, you may want to look into it. Lots of nomads do go there however. Very cheap.

      There are some remote options FWIW. Even easier if you're non-American, but far from impossible.
