Description

I’ve been travelling the world for 25 years, and one thing I’ve learned is that freedom doesn’t just come from your passport; it comes from how you use it. Along the way, I’ve made every mistake imaginable—lost money, trusted the wrong people, and learned the hard way what real freedom actually costs. 

In today’s episode, I sit down with Keith Borie to share my story of how I went from being a dyslexic kid in a small town in Canada to owning property in ten countries and helping clients do the same. I delve into cash-flowing real estate, legal tax mitigation, and wealth protection strategies employed by myself and my clients. This isn’t about theory; it’s about what’s working right now.

 

IN TODAY’S EPISODE:


  • Listen in to learn how I grew from a dyslexic school dropout to a global investor with properties in 10+ countries
  • Tune in to hear why cash-flowing international real estate beats speculating in the stock market or crypto hype
  • Find out why Paraguay and Colombia are emerging as frontier markets for serious investors.
  • Learn how to build a diversified international portfolio with both short- and long-term rentals
