RE: URGENT Banking Collapse Update
Friday, March 10, 2023, felt like any other day in the USA. People woke up, drank their coffee, went to work, and lived their normal lives. Nothing seemed unusual. It was just another Friday. Most people were happily planning their weekend.
While the economy was struggling and inflation had been skyrocketing for several years, this was the “new normal” in the Land of the Free. Complacency set in.
Constant warnings from financial and banking experts were dismissed as “crazy conspiracy theories” by the manipulative media and the gaslighting government.
That’s why the masses who don’t take the time to examine the situation were unprepared for the financial massacre quietly unfolding at “the safest bank on the planet.”
The “Silicon Valley Financial Massacre” made a brief appearance in the news for a few days, then suddenly disappeared.
That’s by design. The global elite don’t want you to understand the truth.
On the other hand, I believe you have a right to understand what’s really happening so you have the information you need to make the best decisions for you and your family.
Here’s the true story of how BILLIONS of dollars instantly vanished in “the Silicon Valley Financial Massacre” (and why YOU should pay close attention because YOUR money is at risk of suffering the same fate):
On March 7, 2023 – three days before the second largest bank failure in US history…
The CEO (I’ll reveal the name of the bank in a moment) shared his vision of the bank’s fantastic future with investors and Wall Street analysts. It was pure fantasy.
What he conveniently failed to mention was that regulators had contacted him the previous week with serious concerns about the bank’s financial health.
They also warned the bank’s bonds were in danger of being downgraded to junk.
The very next day – Wednesday May 8th – the bank lost $1.8 billion!
Given the bank’s liquidity crisis, it desperately needed cash to meet growing depositor demands for money. Investors felt anxious and wanted to withdraw their money.
The bank had no other choice but to raise cash by selling its investments at depressed prices, which resulted in a loss of $1.8 billion.
In other words, the bank lost $1.8 billion of the money investors and depositors had trusted the bank to protect and grow through safe investments.
The bank managed to keep the loss hidden from investors and depositors with the use of a devious accounting trick.
Something that deceptively makes banks look safer than they really are – more on that in a moment.
On the same day – May 8, 2023 – the bank told investors and depositors it had “ample liquidity” and a “strong capital position.” Both outright lies.
Seeing straight through these obviously false statements, the banks biggest depositors – including billionaire PayPal founder Peter Thiel – yanked billions in deposits.
Confidence in the bank quickly crumbled. Resulting in a massive bank run as depositors attempted to withdraw their money while they still could. Or risk losing everything.
The next day – Thursday March 9th – investors frantically tried to withdraw $42 billion (nearly 25% of the bank’s total deposits) in a single day!
On Friday March 10th, the bank failed. In desperation, Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) – once called “the safest bank on the planet” – tried to sell itself.
Without sufficient cash to return depositor’s money, SVB was forced into bankruptcy.
Government regulators from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) took control of $175 BILLION worth of deposits.
All of this happened in just two days. A real-life demonstration of how fast your bank could fail and your money could disappear without a trace.
While the FDIC does provide deposit insurance, more than 85% of the deposits in SVB were not insured. Leaving billions of dollars at risk.
Simple math shows depositors lost as much as $148 BILLION!
(85% of $175 billion equals $148.75 billion!)
A mountain of money that instantly vanished into thin air.
Just two days later – on March 12, 2023 – we saw the third largest bank failure in US history when the FDIC took over control of Signature Bank – based in New York City.
Here’s What This Means For YOU and YOUR Money…
The obvious concern that’s being swept under the rug by the government and the financial press is that this banking crisis could spread to the entire Western world's banking industry.
And despite public proclamations from both the media and the government that there’s nothing to worry about…
The truth is that there’s A LOT to be worried about!
Remember, these are the same people who called inflation “transitory.”
It would be both foolish and irresponsible to take them at their word.
And these are the same banks that took foolish risks with YOUR money (the money you deposit in the bank) that created “the Great Financial Crisis” (GFC) of 2008.
In case you don’t remember, just before that financial crisis, the government told us they had everything under control. And there was nothing to fear…
They were quickly proven wrong, the financial system nearly collapsed, and the government bailed out the banks with taxpayer money. Your tax dollars given to the banksters.
It should come as no surprise to a rational person that a similar scenario is playing out right in front of our eyes today.
Hidden in plain sight by the banks, the media, and the government working in concert to deceive us into thinking the financial system is sound.
Here’s The Ugly Truth They’re Hiding From You…
What US banks hope you never discover is that they have a huge exposure to mortgage-backed securities. As interest rates rise, the value of these bonds drops.
This is EXACTLY why SVB went bankrupt!
Silicon Valley Bank took foolish risks with depositor money. Specifically, they bought long-term bonds.
At the time, this may have looked like a good move. Interest rates were near zero for many years. This made long-term bonds with higher interest rates look attractive.
Yet anyone with a pulse knows that interest rates are subject to change.
To make this as simple as possible, all you need to know is that when interest rates rise, the value of these long-term bonds declines.
And thanks to the trillions of dollars the government printed in response to the COVID situation, skyrocketing inflation created a rapid increase in interest rates.
As a result, US banks are sitting on a mind-blowing $1.7 TRILLION dollars in “unrealized losses.”
Losses that would force many banks into insolvency – meaning they don’t have the money to survive a bank run. Just like what happened to Silicon Valley Bank.
Even the government reports an explosion in the number of “problem banks” facing liquidity issues that could force them into bankruptcy.
Yet through a clever accounting gimmick, these real losses in market value are “hidden in plain sight” on the banks’ balance sheets.
In a nutshell, banks can elect to report that maturity value of these risky investments rather than the true value based on current interest rates.
This makes the bank’s financial statements look much stronger than they are.
It’s like you or I holding on to shares of Enron or WorldCom stock decades after they’ve gone bankrupt and are out of business.
While we don’t officially recognize gains or losses until an asset is sold, we could hold on to these worthless shares for eternity and they’ll still be worth nothing.
Add it all up and anyone with a shred of common sense should be very concerned.
JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon, in a recent letter to shareholders warned:
The US banking crisis is not yet over…
there will be repercussions for years to come…
A US banking crisis would surely spill north of the border to Canada where experts monitoring the situation are also concerned about a potential banking crisis in Canada.
Canada’s Banking System in Danger of Collapse?
One investment firm warns Canadian banks have “massive exposure” and sees a “major issue developing.”
In short, they’re referring to the huge exposure Canadian banks have to variable rate mortgages.
As interest rates rise, many borrowers cannot afford the monthly payments. Rather than foreclose, and selling at a loss, the banks are extending the repayment periods.
Yet that creates a huge problem because the monthly payments no longer cover the rapidly rising monthly amounts of principle and interest.
The result is “negative amortization” where instead of the loan balance decreasing over time as it would under normal circumstances, the loan balances are increasing.
The challenge banks face is that they already estimate they’d lose money through the time-consuming process of foreclosing and selling the properties.
With loan balances increasing, the banks’ unrealized losses will only get worse and worse as the months and years pass. Especially if interest rates continue to rise.
We could go on and on about the looming banking crisis, but I trust you get the point.
Once again, the seriousness of the financial situation is being swept under the rug by the banks, the financial media, and the government.
The few insiders who truly understand what’s happening are sounding the alarm bells.
If you have not yet taken a few simple steps that I’ll share with you today to move at least some of your money outside the borders of your home country…
Then you are playing a foolish game of financial Russian roulette.
While I can’t predict the exact timing, there’s a good chance that your money is at risk in US and Canadian banks.
Why keep your hard-earned money at risk when it’s so simple (and 100% legal) to move some of your money to a safer and more financially sound jurisdiction?
Where it’s safe from the tyrannical governments running both America and Canada today?
You probably already sense the situation is bad and getting worse.
Perhaps you have taken some action to protect yourself, your assets, and your family’s future. If you have, then you're ahead of the curve.
Many people are worried, but they’re wondering what to do and waiting to see what happens next.
But the situation is deteriorating so rapidly that there is no time left to sit around thinking about what to do.
What many don’t understand – even intelligent people – is that we’ve reached the point where waiting is no longer an option. IMMEDIATE ACTION is required.
If you’re concerned about the current chaotic economic and political situation…
And you’re serious about taking one simple step, I’ll share in this important message that could protect your assets and preserve your family’s freedom and future…
Then I urge you to read every word of this important message right now.
Then make a decision today.
The silver lining in all of this is that by making a few simple, strategic moves today, you could position yourself to realize the kind of multi-generational wealth that puts you and your family in a comfortable financial position forever.
We’re at an important point in history – particularly for Americans and Canadians who’ve accumulated even a modest sum of money and other financial assets.
And the clock is ticking. Time is running out faster than most people could ever imagine.
Despite such obvious concerns as record high government debt, skyrocketing inflation, coerced vaccinations during a manufactured pandemic, censorship, and more…
Government and the media continue their relentless efforts to spin a story that everything is fine.
Yet, if you see through the propaganda, and your intuition is telling you something is seriously wrong, then your internal instinct is correct. And you’re not alone.
These are the same governments that told us not to worry because everything was under control in the weeks and months leading up to the Great Financial Crisis of 2008.
When they knew damn well the financial system was about to collapse. They flat-out lied to our faces and laughed all the way to the bank as they profited from the crisis.
They’re feeding us the same line of BS today. It’s all a big setup for the biggest wealth transfer in history: the government intends to steal as much of your wealth as possible.
Through inflation (a hidden tax), higher taxes, possibly slashing retirement benefits (like Social Security and Medicare), and potentially flat-out confiscation. It could get ugly.
Especially for the poor souls who don’t see what’s coming and fail to prepare for it.
Exactly how the situation will play out remains to be seen.
What we do know is that there’s a serious reason to be concerned. That’s why…
The Ultra-Wealthy Are Taking Simple Steps to Thrive & Prosper No Matter What Happens…
The “smart money” is preparing for the worst. They’re putting themselves in a situation to thrive and prosper no matter how the situation plays out.
Their ability to accurately predict the future and position themselves for success is one of the reasons why these people are so financially successful in the first place.
I’ll show you exactly what they’re doing in a moment.
So you can take similar steps based on your unique personal situation to set you and your family up to thrive and prosper regardless of what happens.
Here’s what’s IMPORTANT for you to understand right now…
These strategies for placing an Iron Cage around your assets to keep them out of reach of broke American and Canadian governments where they cannot be confiscated…
I’ll prove it to you today.
Look, I’m not trying to make any political comments.
There are much bigger consequences to consider. For you, for your family, and for your family’s future.
The decision you make today could have a dramatic impact on your life.
And that’s what I’d like to talk to you about today…
Especially if you’re one of the thousands of dedicated husbands & fathers (or wives & mothers) who worries about your family’s financial future, freedom, and happiness.
Fortunately, there’s a quick and easy solution.
Taking one simple step today can lead to a lifetime of sleeping soundly knowing your family is safe, your assets are protected, your freedom is preserved, and your wealth is growing.
Here’s What This Is All About…
The system is crumbling before us – not just in the US and Canada. But around the world. The consequences could be DEVASTATING for those who fail to prepare.
Despite what you may think, I’m incredibly optimistic about the future. Because in every crisis lies enormous opportunities – for those with the courage to ACT QUICKLY.
Fair enough? Let’s get started…
My name is Mikkel Thorup. You may know me as the host of the popular Expat Money Show podcast, where I’ve interviewed multi-millionaire thought leaders like legendary investor JIM ROGERS, superstar speculator MARC FABER, Confessions of an Economic Hitman author JOHN PERKINS, and many more…
Including crypto hedge fund managers, international tax lawyers, global asset protection attorneys, gold, silver, and mining experts, billionaire business owners, entrepreneurs, and the list goes on…
I’m fortunate to have personal relationships with many of today's biggest movers and shakers, but I do much more than just talk to them. I’m walking the expat walk with my “boots on the ground.”

In fact, for roughly 25 years, I’ve been living abroad. Figuring out the best ways to legally eliminate taxes and obtain second residencies and passports. Searching for the best ways to enjoy life in the most liberty-loving places on earth. And make a lot of money at the same time.
Originally from Canada, I’ve travelled to over 100 countries, including North Korea, Zimbabwe, Iran, El Salvador, and Japan.
Since the early 2000s, I’ve lived in the South Pacific, the Arctic, Latin America, Asia (my wife is Chinese), and the Middle East.
Off the top of my head, I could tell you how to open an offshore bank account in Belize, save a fortune with medical tourism in Colombia, buy real estate in Costa Rica, store gold in Singapore, set up a family foundation in Panama, and so much more…
My best-selling book “Expat Secrets” only scratches the surface of everything I’ve discovered in my roughly 25 years travelling around the globe using an ingenious strategy called “flag-planting.” Some of my best secrets cannot be published to protect my sources.
This is what my friend and mentor, Doug Casey, has to say about my work...
I’m not sharing any of this to impress you. Only to impress upon you that if you have any interest in exploring opportunities to live with greater freedom, legally pay less taxes, and find simple ways to diversify and protect your assets outside the borders of your home country, then I’ve got 25 years of valuable experience to share with you.
By far, the most life-saving lesson I’ve learned over the past 25 years is this…
The Greatest Risk Today is Sovereign Risk…
Having all your eggs in one basket – your entire life at risk in a single country – is the surest way to wind up broke and desperate when all hell breaks loose.
That’s the tragic story of millions. With all their assets trapped in the borders of the West, when all hell breaks loose, people will get killed financially. Then will take to the streets and be killed literally for disobeying the government.
.png?width=300&height=777&name=The%20Old%20System%20of%20debt%20and%20consumption%20(13).png)
The dangers of having all your assets under the control of a single government are playing out in real time as I write this.
Consider the “Freedom Convoy” in Canada. It’s a peaceful group of law-abiding citizens voicing their opposition to illegal government vaccine mandates.
That’s completely normal in a free country. Freedom of speech has been a foundational pillar of democracy for thousands of years. But not anymore…
Within days, Trudeau became Canada’s first Prime Minister ever to invoke the “Emergencies Act.” Giving the government unprecedented authoritarian powers.
Faster than the blink of an eye, the Canadian government unilaterally declared anyone involved in the “Freedom Convoy” a domestic terrorist. And a threat to democracy.
Without regard for their Constitutional right to speak freely, without any proof, and without a fair trial. Simply because an overreaching government seeks to squash any opposition.
Canadian banks are freezing the financial accounts of peaceful protesters. And anyone who contributed to the cause. The government is actively harassing these patriots.
Don’t be surprised when the US follows Canada’s lead in denouncing peaceful protesters as terrorists. And freezes their access to the money they need to live.
It’s already happening, free-speech-loving Americans like Dr. James Mercola have been de-banked.
JP Morgan Chase sent him – and many of his staff – a letter stating their accounts would be closed immediately. And that they were no longer welcome as customers.
They’re law-abiding citizens who have broken no laws. Their “crime” was speaking out against COVID policies and vaccine mandates.
Prominent British politician Nigel Farage (he supported the Brexit movement) has also been de-banked.
His bank of 40 years suddenly closed his accounts. And 9 other banks he contacted refused to do business with him.
Even DONALD TRUMP was de-banked by PNC after the January 6th protests.
De-banking is real. It’s happening to more and more Americans and Canadians with each passing day. This illustrates the danger of holding all your money inside either the US or Canadian banking systems. They can “cancel” you in the blink of an eye.
Holding some of your money in a bank account outside of your home country provides valuable insurance against the possibility of being de-banked.
Think about what’s happening in front of our eyes today…
The NEW Principle of Global Diversification…
The old “principle of diversification” applies mostly to financial assets. Conventional wisdom says spreading your money across different asset classes: stocks, bonds, real estate. Maybe even gold and silver. As one asset declines in value, another rises.
This model worked well while the US and Canada prospered by saving, producing, and creating a strong middle class by exporting valuable goods for the world to consume.
Unfortunately, today, we’ve turned that upside down. We’ve become spenders, shifted from manufacturing goods to importing them, and run up record amounts of debt.
Here’s the BOTTOM LINE: Holding all your financial assets in US dollars, Canadian dollars (or any fiat currency) is committing financial suicide. There’s a much better, smarter, and safer way.
A Simple Secret for Eliminating Sovereign Risk
I’ve already helped hundreds of smart, successful people just like you drastically reduce sovereign risk. By taking advantage of the NEW Principle of Diversification and “flags.”
Simply put, when you remove all your assets from the control of a single government, you reduce your sovereign risk. Because no single government can wipe you out. It’s a simple concept. And it’s perfectly legal despite the BS spread in the mainstream media.
In fact, many of the wealthiest people in the world are diversifying globally right now:
RAY DALIO: The billionaire founder of hedge fund Bridgewater Associates has frequently warned about the risks of capital controls and the potential for the U.S. government to impose restrictions on capital flows in response to economic challenges.
Leaving your financial assets trapped inside your home country where they can easily be confiscated by a bankrupt government.
That’s why Dalio emphasizes the importance of diversification and the need to hedge against such risks by holding assets outside the traditional U.S. financial system.
JEFF BEZOS: The founder of Amazon has diversified his investments globally, including significant real estate holdings in various countries and investments in alternative assets outside traditional financial systems.
ELON MUSK: The CEO of Tesla and SpaceX has also diversified his portfolio significantly. By investing in cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and expanding his business operations internationally, Musk has taken steps to mitigate risks associated with potential US capital controls. Mr. Musk also holds multiple passports as protection.
PETER THIEL: The co-founder of PayPal and Palantir has been vocal about his concerns regarding government overreach. He has invested heavily in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, which he views as a hedge against potential capital controls and financial instability. Thiel also holds a second citizenship in New Zealand.
THOMSON FAMILY: Canada's richest family, known for its extensive global investments through Woodbridge, the family's investment company, is moving its wealth overseas.
And many more ultra-wealth Americans and Canadians whose names you’d recognize and are not only concerned about capital controls…
But are also actively taking steps to diversify their assets globally.
That’s why you should consider doing the same with your assets today…while you still can!
Think about how the system works today. People choose from pre-packaged options for the major decisions in their lives. There are pre-defined career paths for becoming a doctor, a lawyer, a pilot, a nurse, and almost any other profession you can imagine.
When it comes to retirement planning, you just answer a series of questions to define your risk profile, and instantly you have a model portfolio. There’s little choice, considering the limited number of options available in most retirement accounts.
Universal Choice Trump's Limiting Choices…
I call these “limiting choices,” and they are deeply ingrained in our modern society.
Our realities are defined not by us but by governments, laws, and regulations that restrict our options and constrain our creativity. Our decisions are practically made for us.
When you walk into a bank, for example, no one is going to sit down with you and say:
“Hey, I think you should protect yourself from a depreciating fiat currency. Let’s talk about precious metals, crypto, or at least a more stable currency like the Swiss Franc.”
Not a chance! Banksters jam the same two limiting choices down our throats every day: the generic checking or savings account. Where your money is under their control.
Big Tech is even worse! They’re changing public opinion through censorship. They decide on the narrative they want to promote. Then they censor anything and everything that goes against their preferred narrative.
A free flow of information is critical to a democracy. Make all the information available and let intelligent people reach their own conclusions. Censorship is a strategy for totalitarian governments. It’s alarming to see the US and Canada following suit today.
Police in Ontario are now actively monitoring what you say online. And warn they may “proactively” visit your home to offer “helpful” advice. Or attempt to intimidate you!
Expect more of this type of overreach from former democracies like the US and Canada that are transforming into totalitarian hellholes before our eyes at an alarming rate.
This only scratches the surface of how Big Tech attempts to manipulate our opinions by limiting access to the critical information needed to make an informed decision.
Limiting choices such as racking up huge educational debt, investing in mutual funds, holding cash in a savings account, or relying on government-sponsored retirement plans were fairly successful strategies before the system cracked. But not today…
The way out, the way to survive and thrive through this turmoil, is to reject limiting choices. And define your own reality through what I call Universal Choice. An effective strategy for doing this is to “plant multiple flags” in multiple countries. It’s perfectly legal.
Think of a flag as a cross-section of your life or any asset. You’ve got a banking flag and a residency flag. You’ve likely got investment and real estate flags. And you may have a business flag. These flags determine how safe and protected your financial life is…
If all your financial flags are “planted” in one country and in a single currency, you’re at serious risk. Because if that currency collapses (and every fiat currency in history has collapsed), you are not protected. You’re very vulnerable to financial catastrophe.
Instead of accepting the limiting choices offered in your home country, you can open a foreign bank account in alternative currencies or store gold in a private vault overseas. Or open a foreign brokerage account, giving you more investment choices.
Just as people choose the best states and provinces to live in based on their wants and needs. Lower taxes. Better weather, etc. You can do the same by “planting flags.” Only better because “planting flags” allows you to diversify your assets on a global scale.
Some jurisdictions offer safer currencies, better business environments, and stronger asset protection laws than others. Planting flags outside your home country opens up an exciting new world of possibilities. You’ll enjoy the delicious buffet of choices.
But only when you take advantage of the short window of opportunity to diversify and protect your assets by removing them from a single sovereign basket subject to the increasingly socialist-leaning laws, rules, and regulations of a single country.
It is 100% legal for a US citizen to open an offshore bank account…at least for now. And if you’re Canadian, I can help you completely eliminate taxes 100% legally.
.png?width=150&height=355&name=The%20Old%20System%20of%20debt%20and%20consumption%20(8).png)
Desperate governments won’t hesitate to impose capital controls designed to prevent the free flow of capital from crossing borders. Uncle Sam is already trying to prevent US citizens from protecting their assets in offshore accounts.
Let me be crystal clear. What I’m talking about here is protecting your assets by legally moving them out of your home government’s reach. This is NOT (nor do I ever advocate) hiding your assets to evade taxes or break any laws.
Why put yourself, your family, and your assets in such jeopardy when following the letter of the law is so far superior, simpler, and safer?
In any event, with capital controls looming on the horizon, NOW is the time to take action to protect your assets while you still can. Before it’s too late.
The GOOD NEWS is the impending system collapse is more like a hurricane than an earthquake. Earthquakes strike suddenly, without warning.
On the other hand, hurricanes can cause mass destruction, but at least you know they’re coming. So you have some time to take the actions necessary to protect yourself, your family, and your assets, and ultimately evacuate if needed.
But make no mistake—this is no run-of-the-mill hurricane. An “Economic Katrina” is bearing down on us. Nobody knows whether it will be a direct hit or a glancing blow.
But we do know it’s coming, and time is running out to “batten down the hatches” and protect yourself, your family, and your assets. And the sooner, the better.
Sure, I’ve painted a less-than-flattering picture of the current situation in the United States and Canada…but the facts don’t lie. And many countries face similar problems:
Germany, France, Spain, Italy and most of Western Europe. Australia and New Zealand. And don’t forget Japan. So the US and Canada are not alone on the brink of disaster.
Despite all that, there are still some excellent jurisdictions where you can open a bank account and even hold your funds in multiple currencies (or even precious metals like gold and silver) to further diversify your sovereign risk. More on this in a minute.
9 Critical Flags to Consider Planting Now…
The NEW global diversification and the smart “flag-planting” strategy extend far beyond financial assets. Think of planting a flag for your non-financial assets too. The more flags you plant, the more diversified you are and the safer you are from sovereign risk.
Think of all the possibilities. I promised 9 “Flag-Planting” Strategies, and here they are…you could plant flags for each and every one of the following:
-
-
Offshore Bank Accounts (there are countries with much more solvent banks, fewer regulations, and stronger currencies than you’ll find in the US or Canada)…
-
Brokerage Accounts (an offshore brokerage account could open up NEW investing opportunities not available in US-based accounts because many great foreign companies choose not to deal with the SEC and its red tape)…
-
Business Entities (nothing stops a frivolous lawsuit faster than a business entity strategically located in an offshore jurisdiction that rejects US laws)…
-
Gold Storage (the US government confiscated every citizen’s gold in 1933. And considering the current economic and financial situation, there is plenty of speculation that it could happen again in the near future. In Canada too)…
-
Digital Presence - Domain Registrars, Hosting, & Email (if you have an Internet-based business, why not move it to an offshore jurisdiction more friendly to online businesses? If you’re using Gmail, Yahoo, AOL, or any other big US-based email servers, your messages are NOT private. Plant an offshore email flag for FREE! And keep the government’s prying eyes off your data)…
-
Registration of Vehicles - Cars, Boats, Helicopters, Private Planes, and More… (Register assets in favourable jurisdictions in the name of a separate entity for privacy and protection. In the event of an accident, owning an asset in a foreign structure makes it virtually impossible for someone to go after other assets)...
-
-
-
Plan-B Residency (A second residency gives you options if the situation in your home country gets bad enough and you need to leave… residencies are generally easier and faster to obtain than a 2nd passport and citizenship. You can have residency in several different countries to diversify your sovereign risk even more.)
-
-
-
2nd Passports & Citizenship (even if you never plan to leave your home country, a 2nd passport is the ULTIMATE insurance policy… if the proverbial “shit hits the fan” – or you just get sick and tired of the emerging socialist police state – you’ll have an escape route already in place… A second passport can also increase your travel options. For example, most Western countries closed their borders to tourists due to COVID. Having a second passport from one of those countries allows you to enter the country when a US or Canadian passport would not)...
-
And Many MORE! (plant flags for anything you can imagine - even your pet)
-
Other popular flags I help my valued clients plant include:
-
-
Offshore Trust or Private Family Foundations (for protection & privacy)...(A business entity protects an individual from lawsuits against the company, while a trust or foundation protects the business entity’s assets from lawsuits against your person. Setting up a structure like this offshore provides even greater protection from predators. They’re also fantastic vehicles for privacy and for legally avoiding wealth transfer or estate taxes)...
-
Cryptocurrencies and Decentralized Finances or DeFi (avoid fiat currency)...(Digital currencies will become more important as the current financial system implodes. Most importantly, digital currencies are NOT under government control. As the digital ecosystem expands, anything that can be done in the traditional financial system can be done in the decentralized financial system with more safety and privacy. And with potentially highly lucrative returns for early adopters.)
-
Legal Tax Mitigation Strategies (to keep more of your hard-earned money)...(Diversifying your assets globally allows you to legally lower - or potentially even eliminate - taxes forever. Think about how much more wealth this leaves for your family. And how it’s kept out of reach of government confiscation schemes.)
-
Foreign Real Estate and Second Homes (investment income & more)... (Investing in foreign real estate provides many benefits including: a safe place to live if necessary, diversifying out of your home currency, potentially huge discounts based on currency fluctuations, owning real assets instead of paper assets, potential rental income and price appreciation, plus owning real estate in a foreign country may be the best way to obtain residency and/or citizenship)...
-
International Insurance and/or Insurance Wrappers (There is no limit on how many insurance policies you can have. You can insure almost anything. And insurance is one of the best vehicles for tax advantages)...
-
Finally, renouncing US citizenship. Nearly half of my US clients are seriously considering this now, and I expect an even bigger surge as the situation worsens.
PLUS, an increasing number of offshore banks and brokerages won’t even deal with US citizens due to all the onerous regulations the government imposes – another form of capital controls – but with your 2nd passport and a certificate of loss of nationality, you need not worry about this discrimination. Some people give up their US citizenship but have 3, 4, or more passports in place…
More and more people are leaving their home countries for greener pastures, offering more freedom, liberty, and choices. Not to mention a better quality of life and a lower cost of living that makes your money go farther than you’d ever imagined possible.
WARNING: If you’re considering renouncing your citizenship, we should be discussing this sooner rather than later. Because as the mass exodus gains momentum, there’s nothing to stop your home government from changing the rules.
The US has already dramatically raised the “exit tax.” Don’t be surprised when they do it again in a desperate effort to keep people and their assets trapped inside the borders of their home country. America and Canada could declare expatriation illegal one day. And once they pass capital control laws, it’s all over.
There are even rumours that the Canadian government wants to charge its citizens a "fee" of $25,000 when leaving the country and moving overseas as a way to stop people from escaping.
This is NOT a fantasy: thousands of freedom-seeking, liberty-loving people around the world have made the critical decision to join the ranks of the prepared. Will you be next?
They rest easy at night, knowing both they and their assets are truly international, truly sovereign, and truly safe forever.
This is NOT about abandoning your home country – although this puts you in a strong position to leave should you decide you’ve had enough from your home government.
This is about having a sensible, well-thought-out “Plan-B.” Think of it like saving money in an “emergency fund” just in case an unexpected financial emergency arises.
Nobody knows what’s going to happen in the November 2024 US presidential election.
Or what actions the next US president could potentially take to restrict our economic freedoms. Or if it even matters who wins the election because the system is broken and corrupt beyond repair.
“Planting flags” is bigger and better than an “emergency fund.” Because it could save not just your financial life…but every aspect of your life when the system collapses.
On a larger scale, this is even bigger than protecting your assets. It’s about protecting freedom and liberty. For yourself and your family, no matter what happens in the future.
Rejecting the “limiting choices” offered by your home country allows you to pick and choose the best and safest jurisdictions in the world for banking, investing, residency, second passports, freedom, privacy, medical care, and anything else you care about.
The concept of planting flags and diversifying globally is simple, straightforward, and easy to understand…but as a matter of practicality, it can be a daunting undertaking.
Let’s say you’ve decided to open an offshore bank account and move some of your money out of your home country. What country should you choose? And what bank?
The options are almost limitless…but certain jurisdictions are ideal based on your unique personal criteria. It could take you months—even years—and thousands of dollars to navigate the maze of options before reaching a confident decision.
The same holds true for business entities. There are dozens of good choices. The best option for you depends on your goals. And reasons for establishing an offshore entity.
If you decide to pursue a 2nd passport (it’s perfectly legal to hold multiple passports), it could be even more daunting. What country? Who can you trust to help you through the bureaucracy and paperwork? Do you speak the local language?
It’s all a confusing mess. That’s where I can help. As I mentioned, I’ve been travelling the globe in search of opportunities for 25 years straight. And I love sharing what I know with my clients.
My wife and I suffered many sleepless nights wrestling with these same questions.
I’ve invested millions of dollars to learn what I know. And I can help you now.
I’d like to share my knowledge and a big Rolodex of contacts with you. I’ve helped countless others just like you get started planting flags within days. People like…
Ken Douglas of San Francisco, California, who says…
“Mikkel helped me narrow down the bewildering possibilities and focus on concrete actions. With the world in the insane state that it's in, I am thankful that I've taken substantial moves to internationalize. I still seek out Mikkel's advice and opinions when contemplating a new action. He's a very professional man of his word!”
Anders Andersen of Norway…
“While looking for solutions to protect my family, our freedom, and assets, I was very fortunate to discover Mikkel.
Working with him to diversify myself and my assets globally was the single best decision I have made in many years. It was a perfect fit, and we clicked immediately.
Mikkel has helped me and my family in so many ways its hard to put into words. And I have seen first hand how he is helping other amazing people.
His contact network and expertise can literally change your life. Do yourself a favor and reach out to Mikkel!”
Joe Ulrich from San Antonio, Texas…
At 61 years of age, my wife and I have been researching the expat life for over 20 years. We’ve subscribed to many publications and also traveled with them to severely international destinations. Their “cookie cutter” approach never felt right to us…
Then I discovered Mikkel, and everything changed. His words really resonated with me on a deep, personal level. In researching Mikkel, I found nothing but positive reports.
Working with Mikkel has been a joy. He took the time to understand our personal situation. Then led us step-by-step to a second residency in Panama. With his superior knowledge and skill, he makes the complex simple and easy.
My recommendation to everyone is: don’t miss out on working with “the most interesting man in Panama.”
Keith Joseph of Scottsdale, Arizona…
“Mikkel has done a super job of helping my wife and I create a clear plan for expatriate success! With his network of professionals in real estate, investments, CPA’s, residency process, etc, it has been both a huge time saver and created peace of mind, working with a trusted team! Thank you my friend”
And finally, Jeff Yates, Dallas, Texas…
As the 2008 economic tsunami destroyed my existing traditional investments, my world views, and assumptions, about how things worked, changed big time. It was my light bulb moment.
I had managed to do the basics that were recommended at the time: acquired a foreign bank account; bought a home outside the US; invested in precious metals; started learning Spanish; and focused on health and nutrition with my wife.
What I didn't have was a comprehensive plan. I needed a mentor, an advisor, someone who could help me put my random jigsaw pieces together and end up with a more seamless strategy and plan.
After hearing Mikkel on a podcast, I immediately emailed him thinking I probably wouldn't be hearing from him for a while, if at all. Within 48 hours, Mikkel responded. He could sense I had already done some legwork in preparing for independence and Plan B scenarios, scattershot as it was.
Mikkel instantly set me up with some ‘next step’ options, primarily focusing on a new passport from a well recognized, travel friendly country.
Mikkel has contacts and professional relationships literally worldwide. The process of gaining another residence or citizenship requires specialized knowledge and experience. We got the ball rolling immediately.
Mikkel's knowledge is so wide, it's practically impossible to ask him a question he hasn't heard before. And the great thing about him, if he doesn't have an answer for something, he'll find out or connect you with another specialist who does.
For one-stop, 5-Star concierge, step-by-step expat services, Mikkel puts you light years ahead of the crowd.
I could share many pages more full of the glowing comments I’ve received from the people I enjoy helping put together a personalized and comprehensive global diversification plan…but I trust you get the idea that I’m good at what I do by now.
So I’ll get straight to the point…
If you’re ready to join the folks already enjoying the tremendous peace of mind that global diversification offers, then there’s only one thing left for you to do immediately…
The Critical First Step You Must Take NOW…
As I said, it can be challenging, but it’s not nearly as difficult as you might imagine.
In fact, right now, I can help you open an offshore bank account and establish an offshore entity without even leaving the comfort of your own home.
Even better, I can help you obtain a second residency and a second passport without having to travel to that country. Or even leave home if you don’t want to.
If you’d like my help, the critical first step is to fill out this application. It will give me the background information I need to help you navigate your unique personal situation.
Due to the exploding demand and personal attention that I provide every client, I can only work with a LIMITED number of people. The waiting list can be several months long, and considering the crazy state of the world today, we may not have that much time.
Nobody knows for sure what the next insanity will be. Nobody knows what evil plans are coming next. Nobody knows the exact date the system will officially implode.
The only thing we know for sure is the traditional system is crumbling before our very eyes. And the window opportunity to capitalize on the situation will slam shut forever.
If you’re still with me, then I know you understand the urgent need to diversify your sovereign risk before it’s too late. Go ahead and fill out this application right now.
Doing so puts you under no obligation. It does reveal your commitment to doing what’s best to preserve your freedom, protect your family, and safeguard your assets.
The way I see it, you have an important, life-changing choice to make right now.
Before it’s too late…
If you’re the type of person willing to bury your head in the sand. And ignore the ominous warning signs of the clear and present danger we face today…
A potentially catastrophic system reset that could wipe out everything you’ve worked for in the blink of an eye. Leaving you and your family financially and personally destroyed.
Then I wish you the best of luck…
The simple solution I’m sharing today is not for the timid and weak “sheeple” willing to submit to tyrannical governments, obey their orders, and suffer the consequences.
If you’re still with me, then I know you are the type of bold, brave, strong, sovereign soulmate I’ve had the duty and honour to help weather these turbulent times. Helping you prepare to thrive and prosper no matter how the situation plays out is my mission in life.
The choice is yours. Whatever you choose, I hope you will not regret the decisions you make right now, in this moment, somewhere down the line. After it’s too late.
I urge you to go ahead and fill out this application right now. Let’s get started.
Isn’t it time to take back control of your life and assets from an unpredictable socialist-obsessed government?
You’re not alone. Myself and an army of sovereign-savvy individuals understand how you feel. I invite you to join the growing group of extraordinary men and women who’ve had enough. And decided it’s time to stand up for our freedom by taking sensible action today to protect ourselves, our families, and our assets for tomorrow.
We’ll help you navigate these turbulent waters. Let’s get started now.
Dedicated to Helping You Thrive and Prosper During These Turbulent Times,
Mikkel Thorup

P.S.
The world is changing dramatically right before our very eyes. And these changes are not good for liberty-loving folks who just want to be left alone to lead their own lives.
Here’s what you can do about it now...
If you’re a successful individual feeling a sense of uncertainty and even danger... if your gut is telling you to do something to preserve your freedom, protect your family, place an impenetrable iron cage around your assets before it’s too late…
You know you should have a “Plan B” just in case the worst-case scenario plays out.
You know you should take some simple steps to diversify your life and assets outside the borders of your own country so that you’re not subject to the whims of an increasingly tyrannical government. But you’re not quite sure what to do.
Then I invite you to either go back and re-read this entire message now.
Or go ahead and fill out this application right now.
Due to the high demand and the time I devote to understanding every client’s unique personal situation, I can only work with a LIMITED number of sovereign soulmates.
Otherwise, you may need to wait several months. And given the situation, you may not have the luxury of time before the old system implodes. And a new, much darker one emerges.
This is your opportunity to join the thousands of Americans, Canadians, Australians, New Zealanders, and others who sleep soundly, knowing they’re prepared no matter how horribly the global situation plays out.
There are only two ways to sleep well at night. Be ignorant. Or be prepared.
If you take your responsibility to protect yourself, your family and your assets seriously. If you’re not willing to trust your freedom, happiness, and liberty to a tyrannical government that only wants more control and power at your expense, then please take the critical first step and fill out this application right now. Before it’s too late.
P.PS.
With the US presidential election officially behind us, the smart money is making savvy plays to protect their freedoms and finances. I have already spoken to a number of my Private Clients who understand the time to take their profits off the table and use their gains to further solidify their Plan-Bs is now. The reality is no one man can fix the underlying economic issues and my clients realize that leaving their money in the markets is putting everything they have worked so hard for at major risk . While everything I’m sharing with you today is 100% legal, it can take weeks or even months to process all the paperwork. Please don’t wait until it’s too late - CLICK HERE TO ACT NOW!
