The Expat Money Show - With Mikkel Thorup ·

2025/10/29

We all grow up being told to “follow the system.” Go to school. Get a job. Obey the rules. But what if the system itself is broken and designed to constrain you?In today’s episode, I sit down with Matt Nettleton of the Default Profitable Podcast to discuss how being labelled “learning disabled” as a kid pushed me to reject public education, to drop out of school as a teenager, and to build a multimillion-dollar global business from scratch. We dig deep into how to turn adversity into fuel, build

What’s it really like to build a full international Plan-B while still living in your home country, especially when you’ve got a family to think about? One client of mine, Ryan, has done exactly that. While married with four kids, he’s methodically built offshore investments, is in the process of securing second residencies, and has positioned his family for long-term freedom and security… all before making the move abroad. His story proves that protecting your future doesn’t require running; it

2025/10/08

I’ve been travelling the world for 25 years, and one thing I’ve learned is that freedom doesn’t just come from your passport; it comes from how you use it. Along the way, I’ve made every mistake imaginable—lost money, trusted the wrong people, and learned the hard way what real freedom actually costs. In today’s episode, I sit down with Keith Borie to share my story of how I went from being a dyslexic kid in Canada to owning property in ten countries and helping clients do the same. I delve into

2025/10/01

The assassination of American political activist Charlie Kirk has rocked the world and affected the hearts of many. While I didn't know much of Kirk's work myself before his tragic death, it quickly became clear to me how much influence he really had, especially over young people. In today’s episode, I sit down with Natalie Danelishen and Remso Martinez, two colleagues who knew Kirk’s world intimately, to unpack how Charlie’s story is more than just American politics; it’s a reminder of how

After years and years of investing internationally, I’ve rarely seen a supply-demand gap as wide as what’s happening in Northeast Brazil right now.

Over the past decade, Canada has rapidly slid from a respected nation to one that many people now see as a cautionary tale of the logical end of extreme progressivism taking over a political system. Meanwhile, things here in Latin America are moving in the opposite direction, as the region continues to shift towards embracing more pro-freedom and pro-business policies. I sat down for a conversation with my friend Shaun Newman to discuss the current state of Canada and how it contrasts with what

Owning precious metals offshore is one of the cornerstones of any fully formed Plan-B. With governments constantly inflating currencies and manipulating markets, owning history’s most reliable form of currency is a no-brainer. But keeping metals buried in your backyard or even in a local bank vault carries enormous risks. This is where the necessity of offshore vaults comes into play.

El Salvador used to be one of the most dangerous countries in the world. It was ruled by ruthless gangs, riddled with unchecked violence, and had a government that had completely lost control. But in recent years, the country has undergone a rapid transformation. Now, tourists are returning, families walk the streets safely at night, and the country is now making headlines for very different reasons.In today’s episode, I will walk you through the rise of President Nayib Bukele—from his early life

Brazil gets a bad rap. Most people picture crime, chaos, and corruption, but that outdated narrative is costing investors big. The truth?
