Nomad Capitalist: Final Thoughts on Going Where You Are Treated Best

Twenty-one posts. Sixteen chapters. One very long subtitle. We made it to the end of Andrew Henderson’s Nomad Capitalist.

I started this retelling series because the book made me think. Not because I agreed with everything in it. Not because I wanted to sell offshore company services. But because it challenged ideas I had been carrying around for decades without questioning them. And any book that does that deserves a proper read-through.

Nomad Capitalist Chapter 16: How to Get Started - A Practical Summary

Henderson opens the final chapter from a muddy car ride in Montenegro. He is furniture shopping for his new beach apartment in Kotor Bay with a general contractor named Anka. They are debating white sofas. He jokes about reckless tourists. She offers him a mint. For a second he wonders if she is making a move. She is not. She is just extremely good at her job.

Nomad Capitalist Chapter 12: Cryptocurrency - The Most Profitable Investment of the Decade

Nomad Capitalist Chapter 10: Foreign Asset Storage - Super-Spy Vaults or Tinfoil Hats?

Henderson walks into what sounds like a Bond villain lair. Steel gates. Blast-proof doors. Metal detectors. Backscatter machines. Guards you can see and guards you cannot. He is deep underground in Singapore, inside the Freeport. One of the most secure private vaults on the planet.

Nomad Capitalist Chapter 6: Love and Family on the Road - Is This Only for Single Young Men?

“Where did your mother go into labor?”

That is how Pete Sisco, an internet business owner and long-time nomad, greeted Henderson on a Skype call from Hanoi. It was his little libertarian calling card. A cheeky way to remind people that their entire identity, taxes, passport privileges, and life trajectory got decided by one random event. Where your mom happened to be when you showed up.

Nomad Capitalist Chapter 4 Part 1: Second Passports and Why Countries Sell Citizenship

Imagine you are sitting in a hotel room in Dubai. A man with a bulletproof briefcase hands you a green passport from a country you cannot find on a map. You put your finger on an ink pad. He shakes your hand and says, “Congratulations, you are now a citizen of the Comoros Islands.”

Nomad Capitalist Chapter 3: The Location Independent Lifestyle Is Not What You Think

“Come to Cuenca, where flowers bloom from your toilet water!”

That joke comes from Henderson’s mastermind group over breakfast in Medellin, Colombia. They were laughing about retirement newsletters that overhype cheap countries with ridiculous copywriting. You know the type. “Live on a tropical beach for $623 a month!” Meanwhile Costa Rica, Belize, and Panama have already been burned through by the newsletter crowd. Ecuador was next.

Nomad Capitalist Chapter 2: How to Go Where You Are Treated Best Without Becoming a Goat Herder

“Do I have to become a goat herder?”

That is how Henderson opens this chapter. His old college buddy Bryan asks this question while driving him from the Cape Town airport. Bryan has been watching Henderson post Facebook updates from El Salvador, Albania, Singapore. And he wants in. But he also has three kids, a wife, and an IT business with sixteen employees in South Africa.
