The privileges you enjoy having dual citizenship; includes access to the social services programs and systems of two countries. You can also vote in local elections and may be able to run for office in either country. Moreover, you can work in either country without work permits or visas. You can attend universities in either country at the tuition rate offered to citizens, as opposed to the higher tuition rate often applied for foreign students.

[@alixp3411]

Dual citizenship should not be used when you are a politician/public servant. That is a huge conflict of interest. It should be suspended while they are in office.

[@wholesome122]

Agreed.

[@drmadjdsadjadi]

Public servant is a huge category including janitors in public schools who would have no conflict whatsoever. It is also impossible to “suspend” dual citizenship. People who are dual citizens do not necessarily have dual loyalty and the only proper restriction would be the exact same way we deal with any potential conflict of interest, that being to require them to declare their second citizenship and recuse themselves on voting on issues or exercising discretion over matters dealing with that country.

[@alixp3411]

That is fine, so long as (1) we are only talking about politicians and other politically appointed officials as opposed to people who are merely working in the government,and (2) politicians must attempt to renounce their other citizenship but if the other country does not accept the renunciation, they will be allowed to keep their dual citizenship with the understanding that they will recuse themselves. You need to understand that you can be granted dual citizenship via birth and not be allowed to renounce it, so we really should not allow other countries to hold us hostage by refusing to allow renunciation or, even worse, decide to unilaterally “grant” citizenship just to prevent people from serving our country - I can imaging North Korea just deciding to unilaterally grant our politicians North Korean citizenship just to mess with us (and yes, legally, they could do exactly that because we cannot force other countries to revoke citizenship or even prevent them from granting citizenship on their own just because they want to do so even if the person who is being granted citizenship does not want it.

As a Venezuelan born in the 90s (post oil-golden era for that country), I know first hand what he means when he says it’s important to have options. I saw how my mother and her siblings were unable to get their second citizenship by descent from Trinidad and Tobago, once things got terribly bad in my country. My grandparents had both US residency and Caribbean citizenship, but because things were going so well in Venezuela in the 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s, they didn’t work on securing and passing along those other options; and their children never thought things would get this bad. It only took less than 30 years to see things turn around for the worst.

They have just recently added a 10 year visa but if I understand it correctly you have to put $80,000.00 in a bank and you can't touch it until your 10 years are up. If I had a spare $80,000.00 I probably wouldn't be living in Thailand. They also announced a visa for investment in a business, there are some stipulations and I'm not sure what it is but I do know you have to invest a significant amount of money and you can only own 49 percent of the business.

This is very true, and so important. There's an old saying to the effect that you really don't have to figure people out. If they're serious and worth worrying about, they'll tell you exactly who they are. If politicians are talking about something, it means they want to do it and if they want to do it bad enough, they'll find a way. It won't be today or tomorrow or even next month or next year.... but it's coming. Of that, you can be certain. Listen and heed warnings! As Andrew says - better years too early than a day too late.

[@hughjass1044]

@Joe Barone I'm not sure it'll take the form of a lockdown; that might be a bit too gratuitous, but I have no doubt they will find some way to grab more power and exert more control and that would be the perfect excuse to do it. I'd be watching for the graduated approach. It's much more subtle and easier to deny until one day.... well.....

@Joe Barone You are absolutely correct. 2020 was a dry run, to test out what would work and what would not. Next run will incorporate lessons learned. Lots of us did not stay home, so the control of energy will for sure be implemented.

[@francosuarez]

I do not always agree with your line of thinking but I believe you are right about having options and how these are becoming more limited and difficult to obtain. Countries, regardless of our emotional attachments, are no more than corporations and citizens are inventory. This is why these national corporations feel entitled to a significant share of our income, gains, gifts, property, rents, and royalties. It is difficult to describe it in any other way as enslavement. However, the additional passport is not a get out of jail free card, it is just another instrument of control (jurisdiction) that you adopt; so choose carefully because some countries are more predatorial than others. You also have to think about cultural congruency with your values and the tax by marriage or divorce that can drive you insane, deprive you of your freedom or cost you your life.

Hi Andrew! My step father adopted me when I was 14 and I have an official birth certificate showing him as my father...could I possibly qualify for citizen by decent thru his family? Thank you for all your great content!

[@GringoMexicano007]

100% yes. Especially if the adoption papers are from US Canada etc... if their from latin/south america countries it will be problematic. I went through the citizenship by descent for Italy (american)

@@GringoMexicano007 Can you clarify what you mean? Are you saying that you are biologically not of Italian descent, but because a family of Italian descent adopted you that you qualified for citizenship by descent?

I'm British born , but also Australian citizenship. I have a daughter who was born in Australia, she was able to get a British passport because I was a British citizen. I have an adopted son, but when he applied to get a British passport , the UK said no , its only for my biological children. So it depends on the country I think.

I want to say that it’s very dangerous because most Americans that have dual citizenship with is not with Barbados or the Cayman Islands but with Canada, a country that also makes Canadians of convenience. It’s just a very high end Caribbean country. Imagine if Canada were to get included in this list, it will get really ugly really quick.

Hi Andrew, I enjoy your channel and wanted to make a suggestion: that you offer some services (whether brief consultations, custom video responses to emails, etc.) that involve a healthy fee but are accessible to people of lower incomes and net worths. Your net worth and income requirements exclude well over 99% of your viewer audience. You can live comfortably as a nomad and be affluent in 95% of countries for well under 10% of your minimum requirements.

[@debunkinghistory214]

@@markcrisp07 He requires a minimum of $500k per year income and $1M liquid cash. His full service requires a $20M net worth. $500k is frankly kind of an unnecessary amount to make especially if you're paying 1% tax as he says he is. You can be very comfortable and upper/upper-middle class in most countries with $30k per year and all countries with $100k per year. If you use your brain you can also get multiple passports that cover all accessible countries in the world without an investment visa and spending well under $50k per passport (even under $15-20k). E.g. US or EU passport + Serbia which covers Russia and China, or if you don't care about China there are plenty of countries with visa-free Russia. The only countries that EU/US don't cover and other passports do cover are essentially Russia/Belarus and China and maybe a few others. In addition to Serbia - Belarus, Bosnia, Ecuador, Fiji, Grenada, Seychelles, and UAE offer visa-free for both Russia and China (the best/simplest passport combo one could have is theoretically US/EU + UAE, though UAE is extremely and prohibitively difficult/expensive if you're not an Arab/speak Arabic). If you have descent eligibility you can get it for $1-3k depending how much you do yourself. I'd be surprised if even 1 in 1,000 of his listeners both meets his requirements and is interested in becoming a client (I'd wager it's closer to 1 in 10,000).
