Description

Doug Casey’s Crystal Ball has become an annual tradition here at the Expat Money Show…and for good reason. A best-selling author, founder of International Man, and one of the world’s most well-known international investors and libertarian philosophers, Doug has also become a close friend and mentor of mine over the years.

In today’s episode, we dig into Doug’s insights into the geopolitical and economic trends that will define the year ahead. We also explore his outlook on gold, silver, energy, and global markets, along with a breakdown of where freedom-minded individuals should seek better opportunities abroad. If you want a grounded, no-nonsense roadmap for navigating what’s coming, this is the one conversation you can’t afford to miss.

 

IN TODAY’S EPISODE


  • Listen in as Doug breaks down why traditional university paths are failing, and how young people can build real-world competence instead of debt and useless credentials
  • Hear Doug evaluate Argentina’s President Javier Milei, and what 2026 may look like for the region’s most volatile economy
  • Learn why Europe is spiralling into a high-tax, anti-freedom “welfare stew,” and why Doug believes it is no longer viable for anyone’s Plan-B
  • Find out why Doug sees the Southern Cone—Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay—as the strongest long-term refuge for freedom-minded individuals amid geopolitical chaos
