433: The 1,000-Year Family: Why Wealth Alone Isn't Enough

What would it take for your family to still exist and thrive a thousand years from now? I've spent years studying some of the world's longest-lasting family dynasties, and one thing has become clear: building a lasting legacy takes a whole lot more than simply passing down money.

Enjoy!

426: Estonia: A Lesson In Why Geography Matters

You can find a country with a favourable tax setup, interesting residency options, great infrastructure, and plenty of things you genuinely like about it. But none of that exists in a vacuum. You also have to look at where that country sits on the map, analyze the geopolitical risk surrounding it, and ask yourself, “Would I feel safe settling my family here?” In this week’s episode, my co-host Marc Clair and I unpack the first part of my recent family trip through Europe, from our second home in Istanbul to my first-ever visit to Estonia. We highlight how the experience reinforced one of the biggest lessons I have learned from decades of living internationally and building a Plan-B: geography matters. Enjoy! IN TODAY’S EPISODE Tune in for an update on our second home in Istanbul, what it took to finally get the property finished, and why Turkey continues to have a place in my international strategy Find out why Estonia’s much-hyped e-Residency program never made it into my own international strategy Hear the ONE THING that surprised me most after finally visiting Estonia in person Learn why geography matters when building a Plan-B and how my eight years living in the Middle East permanently changed the way I think about geopolitical risk THE EXPAT MONEY ONLINE SUMMIT 2026: FREEDOM IS RISING IN LATIN AMERICA!
