Should you worry if the EU were to split apart? What would that mean to the value of your EU passport? Andrew believes that if the EU were to break away completely, the good passports that are already good will still remain so. The British passport isn't going to become dirt just because they're no longer attached to the EU and the same applies to France, The Netherlands, etc. Andrew believes that you should continue to strive for a good EU passport and to keep doing things the right way.

[14:45] Make sure you're setup right to begin with.

[15:25] Focus on the end result that you want. Don't make things more complicated for you.

[17:15] Once you have a full strategy in place, you are going to feel a lot better.

Why would a digital nomad want to open a business in Spain? It would be a disaster based on how things are going with the economy currently. Over half of Spain’s youth is unemployed and restaurants are closed down hours at a time. The Spanish people are not optimistic about their economy and there’s no outside forces that want to come in and fix it due to Spain’s horrible visa programs. Most of the talent has left Spain and the world is slowly discovering that Spain is creating a vicious cycle for itself.

 

Key Takeaways:

Andrew’s Editorial:

[2:15] Things you should be aware of in Spain.

[3:50] Nomad Capitalists may not like the direction in which Spain is going.

[5:00] Andrew is currently in Spain, just hanging out.

[5:25] Andrew believes the best hope for Spain is tourism and digital nomads.

[6:00] What’s the problem with Spain exactly? Andrew explains.

[9:05] Why would you come to Spain to run a company? It’s a disaster.

[12:45] Andrew loves Georgia, but he recognizes it’s a bit frontier. There’s no Starbucks, for example.

[13:55] When a country is going in the right direction, try finding an empty restaurant.

[14:15] Andrew believes Spain can turn around, if the government wanted to.

 

Interview:

[16:15] Let’s shake things up.

[16:50] Stephen flipped the script and gave up traveling to settle back in the U.S.

[17:30] Why did Stephen become an entrepreneur?

[19:05] Why did Stephen want to move overseas?
[22:35] Stephen grew up poor and one of his goals was financial freedom.

[24:30] What did Stephen learn in China?

[28:25] Did Stephen ever think that China would get ‘old’ for him?

[29:35] Why did Stephen go back to the U.S.?

[32:25] Stephen doesn’t feel like an American anymore.

[35:00] Most countries don’t want to do business with American citizens.

[36:15] Banking in the U.S. has been difficult for Stephen.

[38:35] If you’re going to leave the U.S., get an international friendly bank.

[39:30] The three things Americans obsess about is the weather, the traffic, and McDonalds.

[40:55] Why do you need an update on traffic?

[41:20] Does Stephen have problems dating someone from the same country now that he has traveled?

[44:00] It seems people outside of the U.S. are more fulfilling.

[47:25] What would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail and what would you do with the rest of your life?

[48:10] Invest in getting your mind and body right first.

 

The Lighting Round:

[48:35] One business - Marketing consulting.

[49:35] One country - Latvia. 

[50:15] One book - Awaken The Giant Within by Tony Robbins.

[51:45] One tool - Skype.

 

Listener Question:

[54:10] Sign up to the Nomad Capitalist email list to get all the latest updates.

[54:50] Why does Andrew not offer refunds on Nomad Capitalist products? 

[57:00] It’s not about selling more products.

[1:01:20] Thinking you can return the product makes you not want to use the product fully.

[1:02:05] Andrew has cut back on those books and products.

[1:03:10] People get the right results because it’s tailored to them and refunding products will just divert focus for the team.

[1:04:05] Quality over quantity is much more important for Andrew.

Awaken The Giant Within by Tony Robbins

Jun 16, 2016

Andrew discusses the possibility of the government taking away your passport through some back door method that does not violate UN laws; Australia, Malaysia, and Turkey having the ability to suspend your passport for a number of years and the United States passing a law in 2015, giving them the same power. What happens when you're no longer able to leave your own country? When your passport is no longer valid? Andrew says that working on acquiring residency in a different country and/or a second passport should be done sooner rather than later.

 

Key Takeaways:

Andrew's Editorial:

[2:45] What happens when you can't leave the country?

[4:40] Andrew talks about a US law that was passed in 2015, which could potentially take US passports away.

[9:15] Andrew talks about Spain's unemployment problem.

[10:35] Even honest business men are having IRS problems.

[11:40] Malaysian citizens can have their passports taken by the government. Same with Turkey.

[12:35] Andrew does not recommend you get a Malaysian citizenship.

[15:45] It's always best to start the citizenship/residency clock sooner rather than later.

[17:55] Why are you getting a second passport? Ask yourself that question. Get clear on your ‘why’.

 

Interview:

[21:15] X is currently building a business in the Ukraine.

[21:30] Where is X from?

[23:15] Don't look back. Take advantage of the opportunities that are in front of you today.

[25:20] Why did X leave the US?

[27:15] Why did X pick the Ukraine as his home base?

[28:50] X wanted to go towards something he was not familiar with.

[31:30] X believes if you move around too much, it can have a negative impact on your children.

[32:55] What does X like about the Ukraine? Any surprises?

[34:50] Is it difficult to find English speakers? Yes.

[37:05] What kind of flags has X planted?

[39:00] What are Ukrainian banks like? They are currently terrible.

[42:00] X wouldn't have been able to start this type of business in the US.

[43:05] What kind of challenges has X experienced?

[44:20] X talks about the positives of being a nomad.

 

The Lighting Round:

[46:10] One business - Cosmetics.

[47:45] One tool - Asana.

 

Listener Question:

[49:25] Feel free to email Andrew any of your questions.

[49:45] How can you buy nutritional supplements in a frontier economy?

[51:10] There are limited options.

[53:00] It's better to send your items to a mail facility that can package them up and ship it to you.

[55:55] It's going to cost a little bit more, so is it worth your time?

[56:25] Andrew does not recommend Earth Class Mail.

The Go-Giver by Bob Burg and John David Mann

Jun 9, 2016

In today's quick intro, Andrew emphasizes the fact that 'off-the-shell' passports are no longer the go-to choice. That is because respective governments are noticing these people are potential tax evaders and are denying access to renounced citizens. Instead of finding the quickest and cheapest method, invest the time in securing your future and find a country you would actually like to live and be a productive citizen in, then acquire the passport.

 

Key Takeaways:

Andrew's Editorial:

[1:25] Spain is falling apart.

[1:50] Some countries in Europe have between 30-40% youth unemployment.

[2:50] Why won't Andrew buy property in Spain?

[4:20] If Andrew had to compare the US to Spain, he'd be more optimistic about the US.

[4:40] Can Spain even hit rock bottom?

[7:55] Andrew explains why you have to get your passport/legal documents done correctly and legally.

[10:10] Andrew is currently in the process of getting an economic citizenship and it wasn't cheap.

[11:05] The cheapest and fastest passport isn't always the greatest and Andrew doesn't recommend it.

[15:40] Will there come a day when the US looks at all the US-born people who have gotten off-the-shell passports?

[17:40] The EU is not looking to let a lot of people in right now.

[19:00] Planning on renouncing your citizenship or getting a second passport? You need strategy.

[24:00] Do things that will solve your problem. If you want to travel the world, then having a weak passport won't get you there.

 

Interview:

[25:45] Why did Milos want to be an entrepreneur?

[29:15] Rebellion is just a symptom of the entrepreneurial spirit that you have.

[30:45] Why did Milos leave New York for an education?

[34:25] What was the first thing Milos did to start his company in Poland?

[39:40] It was a difficult job to teach Polish staff the standards of customer service.

[43:35] Could Milos’s business work in Serbia?

[45:20] What are some of the pros and cons of Poland?

 

The Lighting Round:

[50:10] One business – Grocery store.

[51:20] One country – Panama.

[52:05] One book – Nietzsche.

[53:55] One tool – Evernote.

 

Listener Question:

[56:25] Why does Andrew recommend Cambodia and not Vietnam?

[58:10] People in China and Asia love buying real estate.

[59:35] Cambodia is a great place to invest.

[1:00:50] Time is not on your side.
