What We Discuss with Atossa Araxia Abrahamian:
- Freeports are tax-free warehouses where billionaires store art, gold, and luxury items without customs duties — existing outside normal territory, hiding wealth from governments and spouses.
- Wealthy Americans now lead passport purchases, paying $200k-$750k for citizenship in countries like Malta or St. Kitts. COVID and political uncertainty drove this "insurance policy" trend among the affluent.
- Switzerland built wealth by selling mercenaries, then banking services, then commodity trading — always profiting from what others can't do at home. Half the world's coffee/cocoa trades flow through landlocked Geneva.
- These offshore systems create stark inequality: rich people buy citizenship and hide assets while poor migrants face detention camps and deportation — wealth literally buys different rules and freedoms.
- Research your family history — you might qualify for EU citizenship through grandparents or heritage programs. Countries like Portugal, Ireland, and Austria offer ancestral citizenship paths that don't require huge investments.
- And much more...
