UPDATE August 16th, 2018: Please note that this episode is intended for educational purposes only. Nothing in the episode is to be construed as an endorsement or recommendation of Flag Theory, their services, or the tax planning solutions they propose. You assume all responsibility for any tax planning or legal structures you may create. Obey the law, and do your research!
Greetings, SuperFriends!
Today, we are joined by Edmund John, founder and CEO of Flag Theoryā¦ Flag Theory is a company that specializes in, wellā¦ turning people into Jason Bourne. International bank accounts, offshore corporations, multiple passportsā¦ you name it.
This episode reflects my ongoing curiosity around and passion for disaster planning. What happens when economies collapse? When countries go to war? I donāt know about you, but I want to be prepared, just in case.
In this episode, we talk about everything from weathering political instability to legally avoiding taxes and everything in between. Though you might think you need to be a multimillionaire to worry about this kind of stuff, but as Edmund explained, you really donātā¦ In fact, after meeting Edmund and his team a month or so ago, I promptly signed up for their services and started protecting myself.
Just a quick heads up and disclaimer. I do use and do recommend Flag Theory and their services, but itās important that you know that I earn a small commission if any of you guys choose to work with them. Itās also important that you understand that nothing in this episode constitutes financial or investment advice, so, even though Iām now protected by redundant corporate entities in two countriesā¦ please donāt sue me!
In this episode, we discuss:
- How did Edmund John become interested in and start a business involving “Flag Theory” and asset protection?
- What exactly is “Flag Theory,” what are the 5-7 “Flags,” and why is it important?
- How can youĀ legally avoid paying taxes, even if you're an American citizen?
- Is this for anyone? Should “normal” people look into flag theory?
- Edmund walks us through a typical strategy and explains how this whole thing works
- What is the “Foreign Earned Income Exclusion,” and how can it save you tens of thousands of dollars?
- How do Apple and Google save hundreds of millions in taxes? Can you do the same thing?
- A discussion about the ethics of renouncing citizenships
- Why else might you want to set up this type of structure? What are the benefits?
- What are the benefits of having multiple passports? Can and should you pursue it?
- Why might it be unsafe to store your money the way you're currently storing it?
- What are the signs that we are gearing up for a very scary decade ahead?
- What does it cost to set all of this stuff up?
- How much information does the US government have on your finances worldwide?
- What books have most impacted Edmund John?
- What's the best $100 Edmund John has EVER spent?

Thanks, I learned a lot of interesting things in past episodes.
loved th heart and the depth of the conversation. The way that Dr. Metivier shared from his enormous experience and insights was just amazing. Thank you Jonathan for doing this podcast!! š
Great interview with Dr. Greg Wells! He mentioned a doctor from Colorado around the 42:30 point of the podcast, discussing turmeric and black pepper. I couldnāt make out the doctorās name. Can you provide me with his full name and maybe his website or contact info. Interested in his products.
Thanks,
Rob
I am new here, and learning really fast.
Thank you.
Maybe oarts of the things he has to share are right, maybe not. If I look at him which impact his nurturing and living style has on himself I see a very old looking man! He is year 1973!! That is not old and he looks definitly much older!! If I would not know his birthyear I would guess that he is in his mid-60ies!! A bit concering for someone who claims his lifestyle is suitable for a long life, isn’t it?
