Switzerland has voted, by the narrowest margin, for a digital ID. For many, it’s a shock: the world’s symbol of neutrality now stepping into the surveillance age. But is this the end of Swiss freedom, or simply the lesser evil compared to the EU? Here’s what it means if you’re planning to move.

Sulking kills respect. In a sexless marriage, the answer isn’t pouting, it’s transformation, strength, and leading like a man.

Argentina enchants with tango, wine, and European flair, but beneath the surface lies chaos. Milei promised a libertarian miracle, yet inflation climbs, corruption scandals erupt, and debt mounts. Argentina is not a model of freedom, it’s a warning of what happens when ideology replaces reform.

Privacy is no longer absolute in company structures. Cayman and U.S. LLCs still protect owners from public view, while Singapore and Hong Kong trade privacy for credibility. Here’s how the four key jurisdictions compare.

The European Convention on Human Rights was meant as a shield against tyranny. Today, its rulings often protect criminals over citizens and shackle democracy. It’s time for nations to reclaim sovereignty and restore common sense.

A Hong Kong Ltd. isn’t the easy offshore tool it once was. Banking is harder, compliance stricter, politics riskier. But for China-facing entrepreneurs, it still offers territorial taxation, credibility, and audited dividends that open doors.

Vietnam just deleted 86 million bank accounts. Thailand froze millions more under new transfer caps. Both moves reveal a chilling blueprint: biometric ID, digital compliance, and programmable limits as the new gatekeepers of your money.

Singapore Ltd. companies combine tax efficiency with global credibility. With treaty benefits, clean dividends, and unmatched banking access, they’re the smartest incorporation choice in Asia, especially for Dubai-based entrepreneurs facing new corporate taxes.

For me, the new US-UK tech pact is more than politics. It is two homelands I love proving that freedom, innovation, and resilience still set the world’s pace.

The Cayman Islands remain the gold standard for offshore business. With long-term tax-free guarantees, world-class courts, and unmatched credibility, Cayman offers what other jurisdictions can’t: certainty, respect, and global recognition.

Donald Trump has turned U.S. immigration into a luxury product. The new Gold, Corporate, and Platinum Cards cost $1-5 million and promise residency rights, even tax-free stays. Who can afford it, and what does it mean for entrepreneurs and investors worldwide?

Trump’s $100,000 H-1B fee didn’t surprise me. I’ve built global remote teams for 25 years - Armenia to the Philippines, and never needed visas to succeed.

Italy promises glamour with its flat tax: €200,000 for freedom from global taxation. But beneath the romance lies bureaucracy, shifting rules, and heavy costs. For most, it’s less a dream and more a trap.

I paid for business class. What I got was chaos: broken seats, queues, delays. BA and Heathrow have lost the meaning of premium.

There is a dangerous illusion in today’s Germany. Walk through the quiet, well-ordered streets of Freiburg or Hamburg, and you will hear people say, “We live in the longest period of peace our country has ever known.” But illusions are dangerous precisely because they lull us into believing that history has stopped. It hasn’t.

There are two places in the world where I feel truly alive: high in the mountains and down by the sea. The mountains are for clarity: the thin air, the hard path, the view that strips away ego. But the sea… the sea is for freedom.

This is not abstract for me. It is personal. Amy and I have vaccinated our kids. We are grateful for the protection vaccines provide. In fact, we even went further... But here’s the key: it was our choice. And I know many parents who made the opposite decision. I respect them. In a free society, you do not need to justify every parental decision to the state.

There is a paradox at the beating heart of postwar Europe. On one side is the German Grundgesetz, drafted in 1949 under American guidance, a constitution built to protect liberty. On the other side is the European Union, born from the same historical moment, but architected as a cathedral of bureaucracy. Both projects were shaped by the United States. Yet one is a hymn to freedom; the other, to control.

There’s a common refrain about America, one you hear from Europeans shaking their heads: “American cities are not walkable.” A statement delivered as though it were a scientific fact... But Austin is not “much of the country.” Austin is Austin. And if you know where to walk...you’ll find that this city unfolds like no other.

Most people think that kind of life is reserved for entrepreneurs, influencers, or the lucky few who sold a company. But there’s another way. One that sounds almost too simple, and yet has been quietly proven by thousands of people who live it every day: living off your capital. Not by slowly eating through it...but by putting it to work in a way that generates income month after month, like clockwork.
