The Expat Money Show - With Mikkel Thorup
How to Crank Up Your S a T Scores
D i come from a completely uneducated household. I was reading a 200 page book every night at the age of 11. If you want to crank up your s a t scores, do it. Start practising when you're young. It is not hard. Feo four years to crank up s a T scores. Be an onchpner, be a softer developer and still get into universities. You can spend maybe 20 % of your time on conventional academics and still getinto th late universities.

Join Me In Panama For Our Next Tour
I have great news. After many meetings and explanations, the Panamanian government has agreed to keep the Investors Visa at a $300k Real Estate investment instead of nearly doubling the amount required, as they said they would. This is a massive win for our community who wants to move to or invest in Panama, but I am not sure how long this will last… If you have been thinking about Panama, then I want to make an invitation to you today. Come join me for a special four-day tour to see if the country I call home is right for you and your family. We have just released the next set of trip dates.
