"In mid-2007 I visited my doctor with the usual complaints. She did her check-up, asked a few questions, then looked me dead in the eye and said if I didn’t change my life I wouldn’t see my 45th birthday. I was 41 at the time.

My husband Paul responded to my death sentence with a plan: escape the corporate world for life on a farm. That sounded great to me, so we started watching for “the sign” that told us it was time to make our move. A handful of months later, our employer announced plans to lay off a sizable chunk of the workforce. We gave notice, cashed out our stock, sold our home, and started laying the groundwork for a life of self-sustainable farming."

For nearly three decades, our precious metals partner, Rich Checkan with Asset Strategies International, has been talking with clients about having gold in their portfolios. Over that time, the conversations have been remarkably similar to this…

Rich: “So, have you considered holding a small allocation of gold in your portfolio?”

Investor: “Absolutely. In fact, I own some.”

Rich: “Good for you. How much have you allocated?”

Investor: “Roughly 5 percent.”

Rich: “That’s a good start. What do you own specifically?”

Investor: “Shares of Newmont Mining and Franco Nevada.”

Rich: “You actually own no gold at all.”

Gold and gold mining companies share extraordinarily little in common. They operate in the same sector, so they are both impacted by the gold price.

That is it.

If you are counting your shares of gold or silver mining companies as precious metals ownership, you have missed the point in owning gold and silver. You own none.

Educate yourself by subscribing to Escape Artist Insiders magazine today and read Rich's full article to fully understand the difference between owning gold and shares in gold mining companies.

Many organizations may develop good strategies but terrible cultures. Consequently, these broken cultures do not attract or retain the best talent.

Every organization has a very specific culture, or, a way of life, that is the expression of the outliving beliefs of its leadership. In other words, if the leadership of an organization believes the greatest asset of their organization is their people, then that organization will demonstrate to the world by means of their beliefs, coupled with authentic people-centric behaviors, that they have created a high trust People First Culture.

Now that Bitcoin is officially an institutional asset class, financial advisors are allowed to market it to their clients including endowments and pension funds. Bitcoin either takes the spot of the best performing asset or the least, Bitcoin has never been in the middle.

The ETF has opened the door to an entirely different type of investor. Bitcoin used to be filled with what we call “hodlers”, individuals who have an extremely long-time preference and do not sell, no matter the price. This new type of investor is the portfolio balancing, ratio type. Meaning, if they approve seven percent of their portfolio to be allocated to bitcoin, and bitcoin triples in price, this type of investor will sell to rebalance their portfolio and meet their seven percent mandate.

If you want to learn the history of the Bitcoin ETF and how it can benefit you, here’s what to do next…

In this month’s edition of Escape Artist Insiders “Residencies & Citizenships” edition, Joel Nagel lays out some of the most important and sought-after residency programs (which themselves can lead to citizenship), and then discusses direct citizenship by investment programs currently available worldwide for global investors.

There are a lot of options available for investors wanting to obtain a second residency or citizenship. The reality is every country offers some type of preference for substantial investors willing to bring their money into the country. In some cases, the “investments” are mandated or at least directed by the country. In other cases, it’s up to the investor to decide what investments best suit them within general criteria (normally based on dollar amounts). Some programs require a time element, while for many others, no time is required to satisfy the investors’ obligations.

If you want to learn which citizenship by investment program can benefit you, here’s what to do next…

Several thousand years ago, when gold was first discovered, the world was a vastly different place. You did not need little government issued pieces of paper to identify where you were from. You did not need similar pieces of paper to allow you to pass from one country to the next.

In Rich Checkan's article for this month’s “Residencies & Citizenships” edition of Escape Artist Insiders magazine, he proves gold is clearly something special and transcends borders as a universal currency. Gold does not care what your citizenship or travel status is. Gold is here to help you Keep What’s Yours—it’s the world’s only real money.

If you want to learn how gold is the world’s only real money and how you can take advantage before the prices go even higher, here’s what to do next…

Some believe they can only hold citizenship in one nation. In some cases, that's true. Not all nations allow their citizens to enjoy this status. But in nations that do, it’s worth the time and effort to learn more about how dual citizenship works and why it might be ideal for you.

In Luigi Wewege's article for this month’s “Residencies & Citizenships” edition of Escape Artist Insiders magazine, he covers the benefits of dual citizenship such as the increased freedom to travel, living and working in both countries, possible tax benefits, the ability to own offshore real estate, expanded healthcare options, and establishing offshore financial accounts.

There are specific differences between common law and civil law. Some similarities can confuse those not familiar with either type of law.

In many countries around the world, both types of law come into play depending on the nature of what has taken place. While there are likely to be individual statutes and precedents varying from country to country, the aspects defining common law and civil law remain much the same wherever you happen to be.

My article in the February edition of Escape Artist Insiders magazine covers the key differences you are likely to come across. Subscribe today and in the best-case scenario, the outcome will be in your favor.
