The closer to the finish line, the more your quality of life wins out over acquiring more monetary wealth.
I'm a Canadian immigrant. I was essentially pushed out of Quebec because of fascist policies. In 1994 I moved to the Czech Republic. The first 20 years were great. We had freedom, low taxes, government surpluses. Today it's high taxes, regulations, government audits and massive deficits. I'm now in Indonesia. Guess what? Tax creep is setting in and I'm sure that this country will eventually go the way of Canada and the Czech Republic. It's just a matter of time.

Exactly. People are (generally) innately nomadic-we are to go where we feel safe and can thrive. I ask people-“Why are we even here? Our ancestors were looking for a better life, they were brave pioneers who knew to get out while they still could”.

Thanks again for another motivating message. What I admire about these videos are your ability to see both sides of a coin in regards to people wanting to leave/stay in their respective countries, without making either appear superior in their decision. Moving around isn’t for everybody, but it’s good to hear your side of the benefits of doing so. Thank you for sharing!
Your analysis is spot on. Life can unexpectedly change quickly in the location of your choice. And one has to fight against the nostalgia and get going… It is hard work though when the money is enough to give a certain freedom but not enough to hire some entrprise like yours…
The thing about nomads is... They move..... A lot. They don't just move once then stop. And that's what digital nomads, nomad capitalists and just plain old vagabond travelers have to at least be prepared to do at all times. The world is constantly changing and the process for evaluating "where you're treated best" is never ending. Be prepared to change as conditions change. You have to have, like Andrew says, a plan A, plan B, plan C and maybe a D, E, F, and G too.
The issue isn’t when you are young or even middle aged. The issues comes up when you get old. Moving becomes physically difficult. And then there is the issue of high end medical problems. I’ve met a number of long term expats who eventually came home as the countries there were in couldn’t provide the necessary care.
@@sixtyskills2814 That's true enough. Some do return but lots don't. It's not a thing everyone can do and even among those who do it, not all are successful. But that holds true for all aspects of life. Things fail every day; businesses, marriages, you name it. Nothing is ever guaranteed, success (at anything) least of all, but that should never stop you from trying. And the right attitude combined with expert advise and careful research can minimize the risks to nearly zero. There are always sacrifices and there are always trade-offs no matter what you do so it's a matter of what you are prepared to do in exchange for what you want or where you want to go. And BTW....

I realized when listening to your video that I’ve been trying to find the perfect country. It’s such a relief hearing your video because I’ve had my mind on two different countries and this makes it feel so much more doable, and for a good reason! IE to diversify. Thank you so much.
It would be very interesting if you could also address the issue of access to health care in the countries you choose to live in. That's the main concern for a lot of people I know.
It such a small minded thing to confuse exploring your options with “running away”. The world is full of opportunities but I don’t think you will find many of them at your old sandwich shop.
I'd say to children of immigrants who feel guilt or may be attached to where they are, think of moving for the better like this, the same way you're grateful for your parents taking that risk and moving to give you a better opportunity and headstart in life, that's the same way your kids will probably feel. You don't want to look back 20-30yrs from now and wish you would've taken that risk to be in a better position to give your heirs a better chance and start in life. I genuinely believe you'll feel far worse for not taking the risk and seeing how well it worked out for so many than you'll feel for taking a very reasonable & calculated risk but it just not panning out as you thought. Remember, you can always move back or try something else if you take an opportunity that doesn't work out, but once you miss an opportunity, it's gone. There's no rewinding time.
Great video my friend. 👍🏼 We love traveling so much. ❤ Cheers from 2 Canadians 🇨🇦 living in Mexico.🇲🇽🥰✌🏼 PS: If I could flip the flag upside down I would. lol
ah this video really hit me differently. I have lived and worked in a few different countries and ended up coming back to the UK because of family. But i do wonder sometimes if that was the right decision. Especially when you talk about home country bias - i was defo guilty of that and actually when I was living in Croatia, I had a much better quality of life when i look back now. Live and learn i guess. I will probably try once more to make a move work out but i dont know where or when lol its also feels harder to arrange visas than it used to be.
You are absolutely right. I don't have any new passports but I have a couple of long term visas since I retired in Canada. My family has been there (and in the USA) for 250 years. It was a good run.
Speaking of Malaysia, I just want to say how thrilled I am that their potholes are being filled at UK taxpayers' expense, while the UK pensioners' winter fuel allowance, life-saving in millions of cases, has been stopped. And to add insult to injury, our own potholes get worse every year. Thrilled. Really thrilled.
I’ve lived in many countries and have traveled to 43 countries. There is no perfect place. It’s best to know what you like and dislike when choosing where to live. I no longer llke travelin (Dubai is the last place I’d ever want to go. The vibes of that place sound awful.) Singapore however is nice. But it unbearably hot 🥵. All these places are too hot 🥵. There are peaceful places in the US away from big cities close to and by tribal lands which are very peaceful. I sometimes wonder what it would be like to live in Iceland though. I have a keen interest in visiting Iceland. (I have dual citizenship -EU and could live there but the language seems so hard) I also love Japan. I lived there several years and am studying Japanese diligently.
I have moved to 4 countries in 2 decades. HK was expensive and hectic. Singapore, i spent 8 years, became expensive and very stressful when GFC hit. China was cheap but you could feel the optession thru the restricted internet and needing to report to the police everytime you come back from abroad. Plus the winter is harsh in Shanghai. Mexico feels like a vacation but far away from home

Less socialism leads to more socialism leads to communism. The moment you see a country go half way to socialism you have 5-10 years before you get full socialism .
Should have prepared better in 2004 and by 2015 moved and sold all but was slow and now lost it all. yep, countries go to hell like it happened to Venezuela and soon Colombia.But that is the thing it is not easy to move and leave things behind and know the good moment to sell and go to other country.
I moved to Canada 25 years ago, now it has become much worse. ended up moving my business to a red state, so far much better but I hope I don't have to move again in future.

As you move toward retirement it’s all about experiences…meeting nice people, having fun, traveling, living in countries where you feel at home..while you invest and secure a second or third citizenship for you and your children. I’ve lived in socialist, communist, right wing authoritarian countries and in democratic countries. For me the democratic free market /socialist countries are the best. Nice balance ..the other two are awful.

I have to say something, even tho things have gotten hard in the US, people from all walks of life still move there, not only poor immigrants, also wealthy people, you can look the statistics, and you can see it is one of the countries where a lot of people are still moving. The US is one of the few develop economies who keeps growing. I agree with you, things aren't as they used to be, but it's the biggest economy in the world, it's the fastest growing economy in the world (within developed economies), it's the country with the best universities in the world, and when it comes to be safe of an invasion, it's almost possible to invade. I love your videos Andrew.
I’m not sure that the United States is the fastest growing economy in the world or the biggest economy since India and China are starting to make greater progress.
@annalyticuk isn't the same. Uk has declined completely and is in the category of third world minus London (as per the financial times). Usa may be in decline but due to mitigating circumstances such as being a continent essentially and having the largest economy it means you can circumvent those issues which is impossible to in uk
@@enjoystravelinghe said in the “developed world”. China still claims they are “developing” with a space program so they can receive the free goodies from western tax payers. Look it up
There are really 3 elements here: taxes, investment and lifestyle. If you are paying high taxes and your business is mobile, the nomad lifestyle can save you lots of money. On investment that is easily done by buying a country’s stock market. Quicker, easier and more diverse than what’s being discussed here. Lifestyle is a wildcard. You may find a place that’s a better cultural fit if you can get past the “foreign feeling” many of us get abroad.
Can you do an episode on good skills to learn so you can do these types of changes. Ive travlled and lived in countries the past 10 years but all on working holiday visa. Now need a fully remote skill/job. But dont know where to start. Love the content
I just started watching his videos and to say the least they are a little uncomfortable since i do live in the United States (Northern Arizona ) .But the more i listen i realize what he is saying is not personal and i dont think i have disagreed with anything so far when i fully digest it .There are still plenty of good places to live here , but most of them are in the small towns . I moved from NYC over 20 years ago and it was pretty easy to see what was coming back then .Im non political and on the quiet side so a small town is best for me ,its safer ,cleaner ,cheaper and just friendlier ,but i do fear that 20 years from now the negativity and leaders of the big cities will spread out through the rest of the country so im starting to look outside the country for a place or two to finish out my days .You have to face reality in life , which most of us never do, but the sooner you do so the odds of a better future increase expediently i feel .
I've read of people advertising on fb private pages they'd pay a plane ticket or half of to travellers going where they're going if they'd bring along one of their cats.
Andrew would say the above options are probably good but it depends on your income type and type of wealth depending on the countries, to be tax efficient.
The corruption that runs through this administration is getting scarier. I feel for the disabilities who are not getting the help they deserve. Anyone who is not investing now is missing a tremendous opportunity. Imagine investing $2,000 and receiving $7,020.
4 years ago my husband and i decided to live in Thai, so we went there first to visit a few places but we didn't like the weather and the food.

Seeing a protest in a country usually means they have a functioning democracy, OR soon might have one. Are there exceptions, sure, but by and large that is what it means.
@@now591 I didn't say a well functioning democracy. Those are rare, but by and large even the poorly functioning ones maintain a certain degree of individual rights and property rights. Which is not a bad thing.
Andrew. There is a point in all this, but please do not bend the story to fit your bottom line. You said Australia had not allowed their citizens through the border during pandemic. Same happened in Malaysia, when they would not allowed people in, including MM2H visa holders - the visa you prometeusz so hard. Same in Thailand and other countries. It happened in most countries...
I don't think average non-essential visa holders were getting through any country's borders during those days unless they were multi-millionaires or politicians.
I’m a patriot of Bangladesh whilst being a dual national with being British also. I want to give back to my home country and I would’ve preferred to maintain residence in the U.K.- the latter just isn’t a good enough place to live and do business in anymore.

You have to be willing to at least dabble where you’re treated best.

Hi mister nomad capitalist / anyone who is well diverse in this topic. I am a 21 year old male living in Canada. I would like to move as nothing is holding me here since I work a remote job, and my opinion as to the direction of the isn’t positive, also would not be very happy getting drafted. Any advice on the best country for - permanent residency fast - low taxes - low prices for a condo/ apartment - a thriving social scene for younger folks Thank you I would really appreciated your help on this subject.
For that Irish friend you advised to consider Albania to diversify. I've thought about it for a while, but I can't imagine a scenario where an EU citizen would benefit from having residence or even a citizenship in a more Russia aligned country. Albania has extradition treaties with the EU so you couldn't go there to sit out any tax related snafu that escalated in Ireland. Let's consider another angle. The war in Ukraine really escalated and Europe cracked down, China and USA entered the war and many countries were forced to choose sides. Maybe then if let's say Malaysia (due to pressure from China) banned everyone from the "Western" block he could use the Albanian passport to go there. But if Malaysia ended up aligned with China during a world war what westerner would want to go there? If history teaches us anything it is that during times of war neutral countries win. So if (for example) Malaysia stayed neutral it wouldn't ban neither westerners nor Chinese/Russians. Maybe it would be easier to go to Brazil on an Albanian passport, but that is really far fetched.

China was cheap but you could feel the optession thru the restricted internet and needing to report to the police everytime you come back from abroad. Plus the winter is harsh in Shanghai. Mexico feels like a vacation but far away from home

SRI LANKA MENTIONED 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Sri lanka terrible. Dont go there
@@TheThingIs415 why?
Got a buddy living there.
The WEF are hitting them hard unfortunately
You made me feel that my 3 citizenship are not enough! 😮
Great video, as usual. KL here we come 😉
See you at Nomad Capitalist Live!
After Pavel Durov has been captured for just providing encryption to everyone, I remembered this channel.
Scary world right now, you need to be especially knowledgeable about what countries are still free and which ones you should avoid at all costs.
Your content is excellent for certain types of people !! And is absolutely different to others who have family , children to raise and parents to support,is impossible to pack up your family and run like a mouse from place to place ,to never be able to have any peace or a land to call it home 🏠
"I dont have to go to the same sandwhich shop I went to as a kid" LOL
Once full disclosure occurs it all changes push for that amd well have freedom
People in certain professions can make higher salaries in the US, but in retirement that is no longer needed and there are many better, less expensive countries to choose from.
Less socialism leads to more socialism leads to communism. The moment you see a country go half way to socialism you have 5-10 years before you get full socialism .
Socialism and libertarianism are part of capitalism.
USSA?
Yeah for example Scandinavia
Canadá
Neo-liberalism. Or really a collapsing empire.
Should have prepared better in 2004 and by 2015 moved and sold all but was slow and now lost it all. yep, countries go to hell like it happened to Venezuela and soon Colombia.But that is the thing it is not easy to move and leave things behind and know the good moment to sell and go to other country.
Andrews! You will do well wigh Capital Global ( in same way)
Love both if you👈❤
My family went to New France over 400 years ago, at the very beginning. Our family had a good run, like you said.
Truer words were never spoken. Hence nomad in Nomad Capitalist
I moved to Canada 25 years ago, now it has become much worse. ended up moving my business to a red state, so far much better but I hope I don't have to move again in future.
Red state in Canada or the US?
You are talking like an entrepreneur, aren’t you? Constantly analyzing circumstances and risk versus reward and what works best and how can we change for the better?
I have Canadian and Colombian passport, OCI from India and residence in UAE. UAE for me is the best place to live execept for the heat.
I am a Canadian 71 year old. How can I possibly become a nomad at my age? I am fit but……do I want to bounce around the world now? Can I? Am I destined to become a bag lady even though I am quite comfortable now? This SUCKS!!!
YES you can do it! Have you been to Mexico and Argentina?
I know how you feel.
@@dealman3312 I have been to both countries but years ago. Argentina is always on a financial roller coaster with a HUGE contrast between haves and have nots.
And I believe that an elderly woman would not necessarily be safe in Mexico.
@@dealman3312Mexico’s new president elect takes office in October or November and she is a member of the wef. Mexico is going to change and not for the best.
@@mzm4245 yes that is true and not good. The only saving grace is the cartels help keep people in check.
im totally in on this now. i get it,
Now the LORD had said unto Abram, "Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will shew thee:"- Genesis 12:1
The more things change the more things stay the same. Leaving for a better life has always been a thing, early man spread throughout the world for same reason.
Amen
Andrew is the real deal.
" When one yings, another might yang." Very true. Ive heard Muhammed Ali say: "fly like a butterfly & ying like a bee." Ive also heard go where
" you get the most yang for your buck."
Great video as usual!
You always educative and inspirational. Would be nice to hear you talking about moving to Brazil.
As you move toward retirement it’s all about experiences…meeting nice people, having fun, traveling, living in countries where you feel at home..while you invest and secure a second or third citizenship for you and your children. I’ve lived in socialist, communist, right wing authoritarian countries and in democratic countries. For me the democratic free market /socialist countries are the best.
Nice balance ..the other two are awful.
Great
"Go to where you are treated best"
how do i know i will not be parasitic but infact beneficial to those that treat me well?
Truth is stranger than fiction.
That's on you. Be respectful and work hard, and even you are at the bottom of the scale, you will be useful.
I would like to hear from your Dad again. Where has he been?
The problem is that Dubai looks great & probably is that great. But underneath is an ancient legal system that could catch you out ! I read a book written by someone who ended up embroiled in it, it was scary getting

Why you need to renounce, as soon as you live outside nobody cares about you, passport can be obtained in any Australian embassy. Don't see any problems. Am I missing something?

The final line about the world not bending to our will cut at my American ego pretty harshly, but it’s true… good way of putting it.
Excellent video
For the record, from 2014-2023, I worked on several social campaigns to change the system, save jobs and characters. I was not complicit in any events occurring that may have harmed, angered or disenfranchised private citizens.
I have to say something, even tho things have gotten hard in the US, people from all walks of life still move there, not only poor immigrants, also wealthy people, you can look the statistics, and you can see it is one of the countries where a lot of people are still moving. The US is one of the few develop economies who keeps growing. I agree with you, things aren't as they used to be, but it's the biggest economy in the world, it's the fastest growing economy in the world (within developed economies), it's the country with the best universities in the world, and when it comes to be safe of an invasion, it's almost possible to invade. I love your videos Andrew.
I’m not sure that the United States is the fastest growing economy in the world or the biggest economy since India and China are starting to make greater progress.
@annalytic lol as an American, you're spot on. The Empire is crumbling..
@annalyticuk isn't the same. Uk has declined completely and is in the category of third world minus London (as per the financial times). Usa may be in decline but due to mitigating circumstances such as being a continent essentially and having the largest economy it means you can circumvent those issues which is impossible to in uk
You’ve read Joel Skousen’s book
@@enjoystravelinghe said in the “developed world”. China still claims they are “developing” with a space program so they can receive the free goodies from western tax payers. Look it up
There are really 3 elements here: taxes, investment and lifestyle. If you are paying high taxes and your business is mobile, the nomad lifestyle can save you lots of money. On investment that is easily done by buying a country’s stock market. Quicker, easier and more diverse than what’s being discussed here. Lifestyle is a wildcard. You may find a place that’s a better cultural fit if you can get past the “foreign feeling” many of us get abroad.
Can you do an episode on good skills to learn so you can do these types of changes. Ive travlled and lived in countries the past 10 years but all on working holiday visa. Now need a fully remote skill/job. But dont know where to start.

A lot of quotable phrases by Mr. Henderson very impressive.
I just started watching his videos and to say the least they are a little uncomfortable since i do live in the United States (Northern Arizona ) .But the more i listen i realize what he is saying is not personal and i dont think i have disagreed with anything so far when i fully digest it .There are still plenty of good places to live here , but most of them are in the small towns . I moved from NYC over 20 years ago and it was pretty easy to see what was coming back then .Im non political and on the quiet side so a small town is best for me ,its safer ,cleaner ,cheaper and just friendlier ,but i do fear that 20 years from now the negativity and leaders of the big cities will spread out through the rest of the country so im starting to look outside the country for a place or two to finish out my days .You have to face reality in life , which most of us never do, but the sooner you do so the odds of a better future increase expediently i feel .
14:14, PREACH ANDREW 😆
I have three cats.. very hard to move..

Would love to see a top 5 countries list for high net worth residence options?
@@Peter-MH Monaco, Switzerland, Cayman Islands, Singapore, and UAE, with that last spot probably flipping between the UAE/Qatar/Bahrain these days.
Andrew would say the above options are probably good but it depends on your income type and type of wealth depending on the countries, to be tax efficient.
What are the best countries for a femel who is financially successful but not wealthy?
Thank you for your insight and facts; they are helpful.
Great chat
Thank you!
Well said, Andrew
Great content 👌
The corruption that runs through this administration is getting scarier. I feel for the disabilities who are not getting the help they deserve. Anyone who is not investing now is missing a tremendous opportunity. Imagine investing $2,000 and receiving $7,020.
How can disabled seniors generate passive income during quantitative times? I can't afford to see my savings crumble to dust
Getting Knox jarrati to help me really helped me clear all my debts. I started with what I have left and it's been the best decision I've ever made
This is correct, Knox jarrati strategy has normalized winning trades for me also and it's a huge milestone for me looking back to how it all started
I have been seeing lots of testimonies about her. She must be very good for people to talk so well about her
Knox jarrati has taken the internet by storm! I didn't realize she was so popular
4 years ago my husband and i decided to live in Thai, so we went there first to visit a few places but we didn't like the weather and the food. A few months ago we visited Dubai, Singapore, New Caledonia and New Zealand. We loved Singapore but they don't allow 2nd passport and New Zealand is too far from Europe and too hard to get a 2nd passport, so we're stuck again :(
Thanks Andrew
Seeing a protest in a country usually means they have a functioning democracy, OR soon might have one. Are there exceptions, sure, but by and large that is what it means.
That's an illusion.
@@now591 I didn't say a well functioning democracy. Those are rare, but by and large even the poorly functioning ones maintain a certain degree of individual rights and property rights. Which is not a bad thing.
Andrew. There is a point in all this, but please do not bend the story to fit your bottom line. You said Australia had not allowed their citizens through the border during pandemic. Same happened in Malaysia, when they would not allowed people in, including MM2H visa holders - the visa you prometeusz so hard. Same in Thailand and other countries. It happened in most countries...
Belarus the only wise ruled nation
Thailand opened up early, if I recall correctly. The drop in tourism hit them hard.
@@johng4093 Exactly, the opened up only cos they were losing money. In short no country is 100% free and open.
I don't think average non-essential visa holders were getting through any country's borders during those days unless they were multi-millionaires or politicians.
Great Advice Nomad Capitalist Thank You!
Start by not buying massive amounts of assets in your home country
They money is better stored as portable wealth in investments.
I’m a patriot of Bangladesh whilst being a dual national with being British also. I want to give back to my home country and I would’ve preferred to maintain residence in the U.K.- the latter just isn’t a good enough place to live and do business in anymore. I agree with the advice and I would add that you can love your country without blindly thinking it’s the best and ignoring its faults. You have to be willing to at least dabble where you’re treated best.
Ha. You think Bamgdladesh is better than the UK! Go back try it!

Hi mister nomad capitalist / anyone who is well diverse in this topic. I am a 21 year old male living in Canada. I would like to move as nothing is holding me here since I work a remote job, and my opinion as to the direction of the isn’t positive, also would not be very happy getting drafted.
Any advice on the best country for
- permanent residency fast
- low taxes
- low prices for a condo/ apartment
- a thriving social scene for younger folks
Thank you I would really appreciated your help on this subject.
I read Serbia.... earlier on the comments or Albania
What do you think about living in Guyana, South America?
Belize?
Exactly my question as well. Have visited several times, going again in October to scope out the real estate potential.
For that Irish friend you advised to consider Albania to diversify. I've thought about it for a while, but I can't imagine a scenario where an EU citizen would benefit from having residence or even a citizenship in a more Russia aligned country. Albania has extradition treaties with the EU so you couldn't go there to sit out any tax related snafu that escalated in Ireland. Let's consider another angle. The war in Ukraine really escalated and Europe cracked down, China and USA entered the war and many countries were forced to choose sides. Maybe then if let's say Malaysia (due to pressure from China) banned everyone from the "Western" block he could use the Albanian passport to go there. But if Malaysia ended up aligned with China during a world war what westerner would want to go there? If history teaches us anything it is that during times of war neutral countries win. So if (for example) Malaysia stayed neutral it wouldn't ban neither westerners nor Chinese/Russians. Maybe it would be easier to go to Brazil on an Albanian passport, but that is really far fetched.
