Paraguay has been on my radar for years, and after this latest trip, I’m more convinced than ever—it’s one of the best-kept secrets for expats and investors alike. With a territorial tax system, a pro-business government, and dirt-cheap real estate poised for massive growth, Paraguay checks all the boxes for a solid Plan-B country. In this episode, I sit down with my friend and colleague Marc Clair to discuss the key takeaways from our trip. We covered everything from meeting with government officials to helping clients secure residency, touring high-growth investment areas, and eating some of the best steak in the world. Enjoy!

Into The Amazon—Then Straight To The Beach

This year, I’m taking a private group into the Amazon rainforest—then we head to Fortaleza and explore Brazil’s booming Northeast coast.
