Nomad Capitalist: How to Reclaim Your Freedom with Offshore Bank Accounts, Dual Citizenship, Foreign Companies, and Overseas Investments

by Andrew Henderson

The first issue you must address is how much money you have available to invest. After factoring in monthly expenses, I prefer to save a set percentage of my earnings as part of an emergency fund for the cost of living overseas. You want this to be a one-to-two year emergency cash reserve that is easily accessible, regardless of what the situation may be or where you are located. After that, I calculate the amount of money I want or need to reinvest in my business in the next six months. From there, I consider all remaining money part of my immediately investable assets, which I then divide between cash-flow properties, long-term land investments, gold, businesses and other overseas investments.
