For years, Mr Henderson has shared his global citizen sandwich strategy, which is live in one country, bank in another, and invest in a third, so you never put all your eggs in one basket. In this episode, he takes a closer look at how that strategy applies to Europe. Many people dream of moving there for lifestyle, residency, or a future passport, but they make the mistake of trying to live, bank, and invest all in the same country. He shares the tax-friendly countries to live in, and also the challenges with banking and investment opportunities in Europe, compared to other places such as Asia.
