We in the West need to at least wrestle with the fact that we are here, be it the USA, Canada, Australia, even Europe, because our ancestors had the courage to leave their native homeland and kin to seek out a better future. That courage and faith was rewarded. It must not simply be a footnote or relic of history.

In the last 2 years, a lot of Americans came to Portugal. especially to Algarve, where I am living, and they are happy and enchanted with their choice that most became to develop small businesses
Are you seeing a backlash, from rising material inflation and locals growing tired of the foreign influx? We were all set to start Portugal living analysis and possibly D7 residency. But, the Ukraine war, rising tensions and prices and the likely effects of food insecurity in Europe and Africa (which hasn't happened thankfully but still might), all of these factors made us bail from Europe and look to South America. Seems like we dodged a bullet with the travel and cost increases in 2023. Glad you are enjoying your Portugal refuge.
@@BOULDERGEEK Food insecurity is a jargon invented by the elites to create famine everywhere through bureaucracy in the supply chain. This is the same in settlements, Water resources and so on. Europe is a new soviet union. Your money could be valued more in Uruguay or Paraguay , the countries I like most to live in South America. Portugal is a small country with a secular culture with excellent weather and infrastructures, but unfortunately, its government attracts rich people with low taxes, attracts desperate immigrants from everywhere for cheap labour and expels its own citizens to move abroad with high taxes, destroying small businesses.
I moved to North America decades ago; now my first choice would be Paraguay especially being away of conflicts and enjoy good life style and opportunities. If I would live in Europe, first choice would be Switzerland.
Paraguay is where the ancient Native American are from that passed through India but were originally from Lajia China. A lot of Scandinavian people adopt them because they are so poor. I know in areas of Latin America the natives don’t want to be bothered and are concerned with gentrification because they have no land to live on.
Jim Rogers is a legend, and I still follow his commentaries. My biggest regret is not following up on his kind invitation to visit him at his home for coffee back in New York a few years before they moved to Singapore, as they lived just down the street from me and we had emailed a few times. Jim was basically the first to open my mind 20+ years ago to having this kind of historical perspective and global mindset, and right now I'm working on different places around the world to live and different investments I can make to be set and secure as far as possible for the rest of my life. I still hope to meet Jim in person one of these days and shake his hand! 😀
Mr. Rogers needs to revisit Russia. From his books I know he had a bad time here. But it's a difference country than it was 15 years ago. I'm an American living here (Russia) and the best way to describe what's happening is they're in the process of cultural and religious revival. The Russians are finally rediscovering who they are and what they want to be after flailing around for 30 years post-Soviet collapse.
Absolutely correct. Russian cities are beautiful, safe and civilized - unlike American cities. And the cost of living is half what it is in America. Western civilization is in rapid decline while the BRICS rise and expand. The US is broke.
Mr Rogers is absolutely correct about the Indian bureaucracy. Thousands of Indian millionaires have been leaving India every year for many years in a row. Indian leadership is not particularly keen on curbing bureaucratic corruption.
And I've noticed the same happening in the US. The bureaucracy is getting as bad as in India and UK. No wonder Americans are moving out of the US in droves. (I'm originally from India. I moved to the US in 1988. I would consider moving back to India but the bureaucracy is my biggest challenge.)
@@vweggers European countries with low levels of corruption should be suitable for high net worth individuals from around the world who can set up corporations in these countries, and avoid the very high personal income tax rates.
@@vweggersgood to hear that move back to your original country, hope you could change the India politics landscape by involved local NGO and upgrade to local politician and improve local people living. India women are well educated and smart as well unfortunately when they are in good positions (women)they ignore the bureaucracy (take away the rights of the poor people) existing for many decades.
Great information. I was fortunate to visit India over 50 years ago. Since then, I've visited over 40 countries and have 7 children. All are bilingual, even my 7 year old. They are in Vancouver, Winnipeg, and Cebu, and hopefully, some will survive the pending collapse. One place you don't mention is the Philippines. It's got my bet. Well located and English speaking with a young educated workforce.
People like Roger’s need to explain why this time is different. People have been saying America is on its last hurrah for 40 years at least. His argument will probably be correct eventually but it’s a worthless argument if it doesn’t come true in any of our lifetimes.
He must have been inside trading with Soros all those years when they ran that hedge fund. His advise makes zero return over the last 20 years. How do you go 4800 percent to doing nothing.
The interest on the US debt will be all of tax income within the next few years and no one want to buy anymore US debt as evident in the US bond market right now.
@@georgeorwell3501 The CBO projects that 40% of Federal Revenue will go to interest by 2050. Its bad Its something that needs to be controlled and averted now. Its not quite past the point nothing can be done. The big thing sinking the US is Social Security. You cant really have a serious discussion about fixing the problem unless we can talk about major social security reform and perhaps getting government out of the retirement business since this should be a family matter and there should be a filial responsibility of offspring to help support elder parents and people who want to retire need to have more rather than fewer children. If we should do anything it should be free day care to help increase the fertility rate.
My dad got married in the early 70's and refused to take American citizenship until after 9/11. Even then he didn't want to, but there was a lot of misinformation and hysteria going on
The US has simply not understood that economic growth of a country can only happen within the country itself, when rising wages lead to more demand from consumers giving the industry incentive to grow and create more well paid jobs which increases demand, a self propelling rise of the whole country. When a country allows it's industry to outsource jobs to places where wages are lower less and less consumers have the money to buy anything and the only way to generate the money consumers need to buy the stuff produced abroad is ever more debt.
And, war after war putting us further into debt instead of paying down the debt, improving the infrastructure, securing our citizens’ safety nets, job security, affordable education, affordable housing, Green energy. China has been smart, and stayed out of wars.
I don’t think outsourcing is nearly as harmful as financially supporting many countries with the hope of having political influence. Our politicians for decades have done this with reckless abandon and they achieved just the opposite. The world doesn’t love albeit many want to come here but only to escape poverty and corruption and take advantage of our social welfare systems. America is in decline because of many reasons and stupidity & liberalism is high on the list.
@@TomBTerrific Ok, lets talk about outsourcing ..... The workers producing stuff are at the same time the consumers who buy the stuff they produce, outsourcing means moving the jobs to some other country. Service jobs that don't produce anything like hairdressers or so are just 3rd party hands the money runs through in the cycle from manufacturers to consumers and back. Now WHERE do consumers in your country get the money from to buy the stuff workers in other countries produce? The answer is NOWHERE, they don't have that money and the two results coming out of that are for one an exploding trade deficit and for two exploding national debt. As of today over half of all Americans cannot pay their rent on time, let alone buying cars or anything, the national debt of the US doubles roughly every 6 years and the US is the worlds biggest debtor. If the jobs producing stuff where still in the US none of any of that would happen and the blaming of immigrants or welfare systems for the economic crisis is nothing more than scapegoating. Taxes cannot be blamed either because the US government gives out more more money towards consumers and subsidies to companies than the total of taxes it gets, simply because workers who lost jobs in production and are now flipping burgers in some fast food chain pay only a fraction of the taxes they used to pay in their production jobs and the rich got under Trump the largest tax cut in human history.
I was at the biggest furniture store I have ever seen the other day, thinking that there cannot be that many folks buying couches and dinner tables.....I was wrong. It is still consume consume consume....I am just as guilty of this. Trying to break the cycle. Interesting note, the diversity of shoppers was immense, looked to be folks from everywhere shopping in this southwest US store. It made me ponder what it was that was driving folks here to US and some in US are pondering where next? Are the new immigrants going to fall into the same 9-5 consumption based life and economy as the old immigrants and native born citizens? Is it just a switch? A trade? "Here, take our hyper consumption and debt economy and Ill take your emerging and less systematized economy?"
I find Mr. Rogers' views on India's rise thought-provoking. In my opinion, the progress of a nation is intricately linked to the aspirations of its people and the quality of it's leadership. Today, the aspirational spirit of Indians is evident through the success of Indian immigrants worldwide. Bureaucracy is only a tool, and its impact depends on how it is wielded by leadership. Fortunately, there seems to be a positive shift in this regard, with the current Indian leadership displaying a shared sense of aspiration with its people. I am optimistic and hopeful for India's continued growth in the coming years.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but hasn’t this guy been pitching gold and silver for the last decade or so? And if so, how’s gold and silver compared to investing in an index fund or even real estate?
Roger's attention to preparing your kids is vital. My son is a multi-lingual dual citizen with a third in the planning in South America. This is at only 17. I have tried to prepare him for the increased destruction of the US as a free country.

Important concerns are 1. currency stability / inflation 2. safe environment possible 3. health care quality and costs 4. stable government and utilities 5. natural disasters, i.e. house won't fall over or flood too easily. 6. no need for a car / simple public transportation or inexpensive options or walkable town/city.
@@mztokyo7630 At one time, it would have been easy to include Argentina in my response, but without a stable currency and government, I sadly could not include that. I would likely include Santiago Chile and Uraguay in my rather short list. While Chile has earthquakes, unlike most of Latin America, Chile has quite high standards in their building codes. Compared to parts of Asia, the requrements you list will make a short list. I suspect that nowhere in Latin America would compete with Japan in those areas, - it would be a matter of what compromises you might make. There are compensating issues- some of the most stunning landscapes in the world and truly some wonderful people as well as freedoms to be found that are rare in some parts of the world.
@@aphilippinesadventure9184 Thank you so much for your detailed reply. Yes, we all have to make compromises as not every country can be as safe and stable as others. Short lists make the selection process even easier! If I were to choose Asia, Thailand, Philippines, and Malaysia would be on my short list. Just be prepared for the heat/humidity, bugs and weather related incidents (like Florida) Thanks again!
If you can convince your family to move from their other family members that do not want to move and to move from their friends, job etc this would be great but many people would rather fight for their livelihood where they grew up and fight for the success of their country. Can't just up and leave elderly parents that need help, or leave children who you share custody.
Here here. I think this channel promotes kind of ridiculus stuff. Running away to far flung places. Selling a kind of doom scenario. Im quite tired of that narrative myself.

Your home country is worth fighting for and there are always new opportunities coming along. Im not American by the way. Irish. All the best.

The last rise of China was directly facilitated by the USA and American businesses, moving offshore to China. This literally helped create a middle class in China, which did not exist until the last 40 years.
You mean the decline of USA? No, it’s due primarily to it’s own neoliberal hegemonic policies benefiting only a few of its own corrupt “leadership” class.
There is a huge influx of people from Uzbekistan, Tadzhikistan, Turkmenistan to Russia - millions of them coming to Russia, many illegally, looking for jobs, to earn money and to send money back to their Asian countries to their starving families. When you think of moving to another country or give an advice about selecting a country to move to, ask people who can speak from real-life experience and not from their fear of the soviet socialistic ways of living, thus placing propaganda above the truth. Andrew, your wife is from Georgia, someone in her family or friends of family must know of this real situation. Ask them, do fact-checking - people seek your advice and not political propaganda.
The 1% of rich people think of how to invest their money to increase their wealth during the recession. While 99% of struggling hard-luck people think of how to survive without food and daily necessities in the recession and the coming hyperinflation

@@Ridendrty I won't try to talk you off your hill. I'll say only this; America, being the patient, lying on a bed with a hospice nurse slow dripping them the elixir of death to keep them comfortable, it is kind of hard to miss unless you have on some of those commemorative Ray Charles glasses. Babylon (AMERICA) is drawing her last breaths. We would have healed her but she didn't want it. Jeremiah 51:9 “We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.”
The main advantage of Singapore is, that it is enough far away from China to not being easily swallowed by China. The disadvantage of Hong Kong is, it was too close to China.
Hong Kong has always been part of China except during the time it was leased to Britain. As for Singapore, why do you think China wants to swallow it? Been reading too much Western lies, have you?
Hong Kong's proximity to China was not it's problem. The UK had to give it back as it was only rented for 100 years. Many HK now emigrate to UK to live a free life in the rain😅
Golly Jim. Who would've thought the country with the largest GDP also might have a large debt? I just finished four months cycling Europe and the Balkans - "closer to the ground" than Jim was. My pick is Albania for tourism.
Singapore is a police state, I've been living there for 3 years, from 2019 to 2021 it was terrible during the co vi d, I will never choose it as an expat destination.
@@Hugh1319 Ok, I don't know about Taiwan or China, but the last 2 years have been an eye opener, about which countries are free, and which ones are less free. A british expat has been deported from Singapore because he refused to wear the mask.
If the police are doing their job to ensure public safety and social decorum, call it what you want but it sure it better than have mass shooters, murderers, drug paddlers and destructive rioters running the country and disrupting the daily lives of ordinary citizens, no? I have been living in Singapore for more than 50 years as a citizen, and is widely travelled, most Singaporeans prefer peace and prosperity than trade these for anything else.

Some new immigrants are different. While I can’t speak for all immigrants, I believe in the past people came to the US because we believe we have better opportunities. We want to be part of this wonderful country (some even before this became a country). However, many Chinese who come recently from China might not actually care about this country. They might simply want to take their money out of China. They don’t appreciate anything this country gives them and simply want to take advantage of whatever they can get from the US. Worse yet, many of them have an adversary attitude toward our country/culture/believe system and have been stealing information from the western world to benefit China.
Most migrants don’t come to my country Germany, because they want to contribute to but from our prosperity. Wonder what they will do when our prosperity is gone in the not so far future.
When I get older, I hope to present myself as wise and humble as this gentleman has. Very well done...

Jim Rogers is very wise. We could learn from him but not to blindly follow him. One must tailor make his own life, taking race, culture, philosophy, ……… into consideration. Everyone is different!
We in the West need to at least wrestle with the fact that we are here, be it the USA, Canada, Australia, even Europe, because our ancestors had the courage to leave their native homeland and kin to seek out a better future. That courage and faith was rewarded. It must not simply be a footnote or relic of history.
He’s SPOT ON!… motorcycles are the BEST way to experience ‘travel’… with a bicycle the second best…
There’s not one ‘distance’ motorcycle trek I’ve taken that wasn’t AWESOME… & much of that awesomeness was many of the people I met.
I have a Harley Davidson which is why I got it. I don’t drive it though because of the crime in the USA is bad where I’m living.
Hi Andrew, thank you so much for sharing us this intelligent interview. Jim is such a successful and genuine person.
Thanks again.
Stephen Lam
Thanks for watching, Stephen!
Such a humble wise man! The purveyor of truth .
Thank you. Jim Rogers is very interesting.
In the last 2 years, a lot of Americans came to Portugal. especially to Algarve, where I am living, and they are happy and enchanted with their choice that most became to develop small businesses
Just hope that they are Not from California LOL 😂😂
Are you seeing a backlash, from rising material inflation and locals growing tired of the foreign influx?
We were all set to start Portugal living analysis and possibly D7 residency. But, the Ukraine war, rising tensions and prices and the likely effects of food insecurity in Europe and Africa (which hasn't happened thankfully but still might), all of these factors made us bail from Europe and look to South America. Seems like we dodged a bullet with the travel and cost increases in 2023. Glad you are enjoying your Portugal refuge.
@@BOULDERGEEK Food insecurity is a jargon invented by the elites to create famine everywhere through bureaucracy in the supply chain. This is the same in settlements, Water resources and so on. Europe is a new soviet union. Your money could be valued more in Uruguay or Paraguay , the countries I like most to live in South America. Portugal is a small country with a secular culture with excellent weather and infrastructures, but unfortunately, its government attracts rich people with low taxes, attracts desperate immigrants from everywhere for cheap labour and expels its own citizens to move abroad with high taxes, destroying small businesses.
Why Algarve? It's so rocky and barren..
@@ordoabchao4202 Algarve has a better climate and infrastructure for expats. Similar to Florida to the Americans. But each one has its preferences.
I moved to North America decades ago; now my first choice would be Paraguay especially being away of conflicts and
enjoy good life style and opportunities.
If I would live in Europe, first choice would be Switzerland.
Paraguay is where the ancient Native American are from that passed through India but were originally from Lajia China. A lot of Scandinavian people adopt them because they are so poor. I know in areas of Latin America the natives don’t want to be bothered and are concerned with gentrification because they have no land to live on.
Oh, I would so love to see pictures from his motorcycle travels!!!!!!!!!
Love this man's thoughts. Thank you NC
Is this the guy who praised Mao and pushed people to invest in communist china in the early 2000s? 😐🙄
He is a wise, kind man! He moves me!
Thanks for listening!
Jim Rogers is a legend, and I still follow his commentaries. My biggest regret is not following up on his kind invitation to visit him at his home for coffee back in New York a few years before they moved to Singapore, as they lived just down the street from me and we had emailed a few times. Jim was basically the first to open my mind 20+ years ago to having this kind of historical perspective and global mindset, and right now I'm working on different places around the world to live and different investments I can make to be set and secure as far as possible for the rest of my life. I still hope to meet Jim in person one of these days and shake his hand! 😀
He's never been a legend. Always wrong.
always wrong?@@apollocreed1000
I'm sure he'd welcome u in Singapore. For a visit and also for u to choose that situs.
Omg how can you reject an invite from Jim Rogers for coffee at his home
You're always right? Must be fun. I'm sure Andrew must be chomping at the bit to get your valuable insights at his event next year!
I retired to Hua Hin Thailand which Forbes just named one of the top 3 destinations in the world for people 60+! I agree!
No air links though?
There goes the neighborhood
Great advice and forecast from a legend. Thanks!
Didn't see the whole interview but if anyone saw him talk about "Commodities" please post the time on the vid.
I always appreciate watching interviews with him
This is going to be good ! Love this channel.
Glad you enjoy it!
Great Ideas Andrew and Thank You Jim for open are eyes!
Jim Rogers; Total class act
A great guest thank you Andrew!
ITA. An insightful interview.
Thanks for watching!
Great interview with Mr Rogers. And Thank you Andrew.
Thanks for watching!
Mr. Rogers needs to revisit Russia. From his books I know he had a bad time here. But it's a difference country than it was 15 years ago. I'm an American living here (Russia) and the best way to describe what's happening is they're in the process of cultural and religious revival. The Russians are finally rediscovering who they are and what they want to be after flailing around for 30 years post-Soviet collapse.
Not to be crass, but what do they want to be in your view?
Absolutely correct. Russian cities are beautiful, safe and civilized - unlike American cities. And the cost of living is half what it is in America. Western civilization is in rapid decline while the BRICS rise and expand. The US is broke.
I have wanted to visit Russia since I was little.
@@albirtarsha5370probably independent of the west
ok that is not new , same as 30 years ago@@YouGotOptions2
Mr Rogers is absolutely correct about the Indian bureaucracy. Thousands of Indian millionaires have been leaving India every year for many years in a row. Indian leadership is not particularly keen on curbing bureaucratic corruption.
And I've noticed the same happening in the US. The bureaucracy is getting as bad as in India and UK. No wonder Americans are moving out of the US in droves. (I'm originally from India. I moved to the US in 1988. I would consider moving back to India but the bureaucracy is my biggest challenge.)
@@vweggers European countries with low levels of corruption should be suitable for high net worth individuals from around the world who can set up corporations in these countries, and avoid the very high personal income tax rates.
@@vweggersgood to hear that move back to your original country, hope you could change the India politics landscape by involved local NGO and upgrade to local politician and improve local people living. India women are well educated and smart as well unfortunately when they are in good positions (women)they ignore the bureaucracy (take away the rights of the poor people) existing for many decades.
Even chineese leaving 😂so
@@rajibchakroborthy4181What's your point?
Great information. I was fortunate to visit India over 50 years ago. Since then, I've visited over 40 countries and have 7 children. All are bilingual, even my 7 year old. They are in Vancouver, Winnipeg, and Cebu, and hopefully, some will survive the pending collapse.
One place you don't mention is the Philippines. It's got my bet. Well located and English speaking with a young educated workforce.
Interesting - it's caught my eye before now. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
A country that latch her fortune on USA would be a risky option. History speaks for itself. Think twice.....
The Earth is overpopulated, stop already.
@snowbird6855 That's a blip on the horizon. Viruses mutate every day, and the population will self adjust.
@@OceanFrontVilla3 you want to make place for the late comers?
Not a good sign when rich people hedge the future of America. It’s all or nothing for a lot of us.
People like Roger’s need to explain why this time is different. People have been saying America is on its last hurrah for 40 years at least. His argument will probably be correct eventually but it’s a worthless argument if it doesn’t come true in any of our lifetimes.
He must have been inside trading with Soros all those years when they ran that hedge fund. His advise makes zero return over the last 20 years. How do you go 4800 percent to doing nothing.
The interest on the US debt will be all of tax income within the next few years and no one want to buy anymore US debt as evident in the US bond market right now.
@@georgeorwell3501 what do you mean "all of tax income"
@@georgeorwell3501 The CBO projects that 40% of Federal Revenue will go to interest by 2050. Its bad Its something that needs to be controlled and averted now. Its not quite past the point nothing can be done. The big thing sinking the US is Social Security. You cant really have a serious discussion about fixing the problem unless we can talk about major social security reform and perhaps getting government out of the retirement business since this should be a family matter and there should be a filial responsibility of offspring to help support elder parents and people who want to retire need to have more rather than fewer children. If we should do anything it should be free day care to help increase the fertility rate.
@@nanday100 all the US government income can barely pay the interests on the debt.
A friend of mine has got his American citizen after waiting for so long. But now, he regrets it as the life in US is getting worse.
Yeah there are better options
Go go go!!!
My dad got married in the early 70's and refused to take American citizenship until after 9/11. Even then he didn't want to, but there was a lot of misinformation and hysteria going on
Your friend was off a couple, few decades..sorry
The US has simply not understood that economic growth of a country can only happen within the country itself, when rising wages lead to more demand from consumers giving the industry incentive to grow and create more well paid jobs which increases demand, a self propelling rise of the whole country.
When a country allows it's industry to outsource jobs to places where wages are lower less and less consumers have the money to buy anything and the only way to generate the money consumers need to buy the stuff produced abroad is ever more debt.
And, war after war putting us further into debt instead of paying down the debt, improving the infrastructure, securing our citizens’ safety nets, job security, affordable education, affordable housing, Green energy. China has been smart, and stayed out of wars.
I don’t think outsourcing is nearly as harmful as financially supporting many countries with the hope of having political influence. Our politicians for decades have done this with reckless abandon and they achieved just the opposite. The world doesn’t love albeit many want to come here but only to escape poverty and corruption and take advantage of our social welfare systems.
America is in decline because of many reasons and stupidity & liberalism is high on the list.
@@TomBTerrific Ok, lets talk about outsourcing .....
The workers producing stuff are at the same time the consumers who buy the stuff they produce, outsourcing means moving the jobs to some other country.
Service jobs that don't produce anything like hairdressers or so are just 3rd party hands the money runs through in the cycle from manufacturers to consumers and back.
Now WHERE do consumers in your country get the money from to buy the stuff workers in other countries produce?
The answer is NOWHERE, they don't have that money and the two results coming out of that are for one an exploding trade deficit and for two exploding national debt.
As of today over half of all Americans cannot pay their rent on time, let alone buying cars or anything, the national debt of the US doubles roughly every 6 years and the US is the worlds biggest debtor.
If the jobs producing stuff where still in the US none of any of that would happen and the blaming of immigrants or welfare systems for the economic crisis is nothing more than scapegoating.
Taxes cannot be blamed either because the US government gives out more more money towards consumers and subsidies to companies than the total of taxes it gets, simply because workers who lost jobs in production and are now flipping burgers in some fast food chain pay only a fraction of the taxes they used to pay in their production jobs and the rich got under Trump the largest tax cut in human history.
All planned. They understood exactly what they wanted to do
What makes you think they weren't aware?
Andrew this is awesome bro, you might not hear it often but we really appreciate you because changed hearts and minds about these things
I appreciate that!
Wow. You got Jim. Congrats. I read "market wizards" 30 years ago. He is a legend.
Thank you ! Excellent! First time I have watched your channel and heard Mr Rodger interviewed. Learned a lot. I will be back:)
Welcome!
Andrew, I think this is one of your best videos!! Very informative and inspirational! Old Marine.
Wow, thanks!
I was at the biggest furniture store I have ever seen the other day, thinking that there cannot be that many folks buying couches and dinner tables.....I was wrong. It is still consume consume consume....I am just as guilty of this. Trying to break the cycle. Interesting note, the diversity of shoppers was immense, looked to be folks from everywhere shopping in this southwest US store. It made me ponder what it was that was driving folks here to US and some in US are pondering where next? Are the new immigrants going to fall into the same 9-5 consumption based life and economy as the old immigrants and native born citizens? Is it just a switch? A trade? "Here, take our hyper consumption and debt economy and Ill take your emerging and less systematized economy?"
I find Mr. Rogers' views on India's rise thought-provoking. In my opinion, the progress of a nation is intricately linked to the aspirations of its people and the quality of it's leadership. Today, the aspirational spirit of Indians is evident through the success of Indian immigrants worldwide. Bureaucracy is only a tool, and its impact depends on how it is wielded by leadership. Fortunately, there seems to be a positive shift in this regard, with the current Indian leadership displaying a shared sense of aspiration with its people. I am optimistic and hopeful for India's continued growth in the coming years.
Wonderful interview. It was fascinating throughout.
Thank you!
I really enjoyed this video. Very insightful!
I'm glad I was able to get Irish & Italian citizenship by decent both EU. Planning my exit from USA.
Congratulations!
this is one of the best videos ive ever watched. totally helped me put things into perspective[ective just by knowing more about whats going on.
So glad!
Go where you are treated best? I don't know about "Best" but the tax rate in Russia is much lower than the USA.
@@Deltron6060 I don't know if I would like the cold. A few people I know there seem to like it overall.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but hasn’t this guy been pitching gold and silver for the last decade or so? And if so, how’s gold and silver compared to investing in an index fund or even real estate?
Yeah, and all it's done is go down.
I think silver hasn’t quite kept up with inflation while gold has gone up, but not as much as real estate.
Interesting how little attachment he has to the country and the system that made him one of the wealthiest in the history of the planet.
Great interview!
Thank you!
Andrew, tu as été a la hauteur d'une légende...bravo !!
I recently bought silver on his advice.....after that it fell almost 10%
Will be interesting to see how his views regarding BRICS plays out. Interesting.
Excellent interview
Thank you!
Roger's attention to preparing your kids is vital. My son is a multi-lingual dual citizen with a third in the planning in South America. This is at only 17. I have tried to prepare him for the increased destruction of the US as a free country.
What South American country do you recommend? And does it have to be citizenship or just residency?
@@mztokyo7630 What country? It depends on your likes, needs and wishes. In any case, you start with residency and go from there. What things are most important to you?
@@aphilippinesadventure9184 Thank you for your prompt reply. Important concerns are 1. currency stability / inflation 2. safe environment possible 3. health care quality and costs 4. stable government and utilities 5. natural disasters, i.e. house won't fall over or flood too easily. 6. no need for a car / simple public transportation or inexpensive options or walkable town/city.
@@mztokyo7630 At one time, it would have been easy to include Argentina in my response, but without a stable currency and government, I sadly could not include that.
I would likely include Santiago Chile and Uraguay in my rather short list. While Chile has earthquakes, unlike most of Latin America, Chile has quite high standards in their building codes.
Compared to parts of Asia, the requrements you list will make a short list. I suspect that nowhere in Latin America would compete with Japan in those areas, - it would be a matter of what compromises you might make. There are compensating issues- some of the most stunning landscapes in the world and truly some wonderful people as well as freedoms to be found that are rare in some parts of the world.
@@aphilippinesadventure9184 Thank you so much for your detailed reply. Yes, we all have to make compromises as not every country can be as safe and stable as others. Short lists make the selection process even easier! If I were to choose Asia, Thailand, Philippines, and Malaysia would be on my short list. Just be prepared for the heat/humidity, bugs and weather related incidents (like Florida) Thanks again!
If you can convince your family to move from their other family members that do not want to move and to move from their friends, job etc this would be great but many people would rather fight for their livelihood where they grew up and fight for the success of their country. Can't just up and leave elderly parents that need help, or leave children who you share custody.
Here here. I think this channel promotes kind of ridiculus stuff. Running away to far flung places. Selling a kind of doom scenario. Im quite tired of that narrative myself. Not just from this channel but plenty others too on YT etc. America wont go away after this so called "impending collapse." Your home country is worth fighting for and there are always new opportunities coming along. Im not American by the way. Irish. All the best.
@DevRSVR run TO save what you want, don't run AWAY unless you want it to collapse. It's different than running out of a burning city or building but even then you'd risk your life if someone you love is inside
Andrew learn to be humble like JIm..........he is a great mentor.
The last rise of China was directly facilitated by the USA and American businesses, moving offshore to China. This literally helped create a middle class in China, which did not exist until the last 40 years.
You mean the decline of USA? No, it’s due primarily to it’s own neoliberal hegemonic policies benefiting only a few of its own corrupt “leadership” class.
you did not mentioned the west was rich upon the plunder of the world upon learning to make gun to kill and colonised the world.
YOU ARE NOT EVEN THE LARGEST INVESTORS IN CHINA....😂
There is a huge influx of people from Uzbekistan, Tadzhikistan, Turkmenistan to Russia - millions of them coming to Russia, many illegally, looking for jobs, to earn money and to send money back to their Asian countries to their starving families. When you think of moving to another country or give an advice about selecting a country to move to, ask people who can speak from real-life experience and not from their fear of the soviet socialistic ways of living, thus placing propaganda above the truth. Andrew, your wife is from Georgia, someone in her family or friends of family must know of this real situation. Ask them, do fact-checking - people seek your advice and not political propaganda.
Yep, American living in Russia. Western media has this place ALL WRONG.
I like his mindset!
The 1% of rich people think of how to invest their money to increase their wealth during the recession. While 99% of struggling hard-luck people think of how to survive without food and daily necessities in the recession and the coming hyperinflation
I like to draw a parallel with this statement and Nomad Capitalism, nations, and nationalism: “Extinction is the rule. Survival is the exception.” Carl Sagan
Fascinating interview!
It was nice visiting mister Roger,s neighborhood.
Jim "The Pauper" Rogers !!!
Always good
😉🤠✌️

Love jims story. Amazing man!
America doesn't have even one more decade... 😮 she's broke. Morally, financially, socially and spiritually 😮
Given the problems in China they are no safe haven either.
Yea that's been going on since the sixties
Sometimes people must be shocked into change. Yes i see the massive debt, moral decline and political corruption but we still have massive stores of natural resources and not that many people to support so given the right motivation we can rally again. 🙏🇺🇸
@@Ridendrty I won't try to talk you off your hill. I'll say only this; America, being the patient, lying on a bed with a hospice nurse slow dripping them the elixir of death to keep them comfortable, it is kind of hard to miss unless you have on some of those commemorative Ray Charles glasses. Babylon (AMERICA) is drawing her last breaths. We would have healed her but she didn't want it.
Jeremiah 51:9
“We would have healed Babylon, but she is not healed: forsake her, and let us go every one into his own country: for her judgment reacheth unto heaven, and is lifted up even to the skies.”
@@Brewed-mi1ue Mathew 19:26 “with man this is impossible, with God all things are possible” 🙏🇺🇸
Authentically deep experience.
Great interview Andrew.
Thank you!
The main advantage of Singapore is, that it is enough far away from China to not being easily swallowed by China. The disadvantage of Hong Kong is, it was too close to China.
Hong Kong has always been part of China except during the time it was leased to Britain. As for Singapore, why do you think China wants to swallow it? Been reading too much Western lies, have you?
Hong Kong's proximity to China was not it's problem. The UK had to give it back as it was only rented for 100 years. Many HK now emigrate to UK to live a free life in the rain😅
Time and luck are definitely important but make no mistake, Singapore's rise is 100% due to its leadership, Lee Kuan Yew.
What a lovely talk. Thank you Jim and Andrew.
Thanks for listening!
Rogers has been very influential in my life. I bought a second passport plus a daughter who lives in Chins now
You bought a daughter?
@@Caleb_Mandrake872 you beat me to it! 2023 personified
Golly Jim. Who would've thought the country with the largest GDP also might have a large debt?
I just finished four months cycling Europe and the Balkans - "closer to the ground" than Jim was.
My pick is Albania for tourism.
Large Albanian population in Detroit.
I am keen to visit Albania 🇦🇱
Jim study the Green box- urine as fuel .also please study - eco villages and Kristen Dirksen thanks.
Thanks for sharing and surfacing the truth. 👏👍
Singapore is a police state, I've been living there for 3 years, from 2019 to 2021 it was terrible during the co vi d, I will never choose it as an expat destination.
Pre Covid it was good. Pretty similar to Taiwan and China.
@@Hugh1319 Ok, I don't know about Taiwan or China, but the last 2 years have been an eye opener, about which countries are free, and which ones are less free. A british expat has been deported from Singapore because he refused to wear the mask.
If the police are doing their job to ensure public safety and social decorum, call it what you want but it sure it better than have mass shooters, murderers, drug paddlers and destructive rioters running the country and disrupting the daily lives of ordinary citizens, no? I have been living in Singapore for more than 50 years as a citizen, and is widely travelled, most Singaporeans prefer peace and prosperity than trade these for anything else.
@@mjmf1430 Good for you, I'm not a sheep. Enjoy the coming social credit. I'm free to think what I want, and YES Singapore is a police state.
Singapore planned for the people, the community, not the selfish individual
What kind of motorcycle did he use? 😅 sorry, I love motorcycles too and plan to do a world trip as well.
unbelievable he got Jim rogers on the show....
Great interview
He's smart and articulate, no doubt. But if you had listened to him over the last 20 years you would have lost, or at least not made, a lot of money. He knows this too.
Very visionary Jim Roger
“If you’re not prepared, you better at least have options” wow 👏🏼👏🏼
GREAT TALK GENTLEMAN.
THANK YOU 🏆
Some new immigrants are different. While I can’t speak for all immigrants, I believe in the past people came to the US because we believe we have better opportunities. We want to be part of this wonderful country (some even before this became a country). However, many Chinese who come recently from China might not actually care about this country. They might simply want to take their money out of China. They don’t appreciate anything this country gives them and simply want to take advantage of whatever they can get from the US. Worse yet, many of them have an adversary attitude toward our country/culture/believe system and have been stealing information from the western world to benefit China.
Most migrants don’t come to my country Germany, because they want to contribute to but from our prosperity. Wonder what they will do when our prosperity is gone in the not so far future.
