The True Power of Success: Residency and Second Citizenship for Entrepreneurs
June 28, 2024 · Residency by investment · 5 min read
A permanent residence card or a second citizenship can cost about as much as a luxury car or a downtown apartment, yet its value can last a lifetime: it does not depreciate over time or go out of date. Amid global and regional turbulence, this status becomes priceless: a personal safeguard and, in the hardest moments, a lifeline.
Below, Tony Tinh, founder of IMM Group, shares his perspective on second citizenship for entrepreneurs and other successful people.
The ultimate goal of all the striving, business building and investing is greater freedom, and financial freedom is only one kind. For entrepreneurs, another kind matters just as much: the freedom to choose the life your family leads today, and the freedom for your children to develop without limits. A permanent resident card from a developed country, or citizenship of a Commonwealth country, can bring freedoms that many people are not even aware of.
Some freedoms are worth more than money can measure:
- Shaping the future of the next generations. Becoming a global citizen gives your children and grandchildren greater freedom to choose where in the world they can build a better life.
- Freedom to travel to other countries whenever you need to, with fewer visa restrictions and less time lost to slow, cumbersome procedures. For entrepreneurs and other successful people, this freedom is especially valuable, because for them time is money.
- Freedom to choose the cleanest, most comfortable, safest and fairest place to live, with the best social welfare systems. Successful people deserve a home that reflects the value they create.
- Freedom to grow your career and your business without being held back by rigid, conservative rules. Ideas mean little if you are not allowed to act on them.
- Freedom to express your views, contribute ideas and speak candidly about social and national issues without fear of reprisal. Thoughtful, educated people need to live where knowledge is valued.
- Freedom to challenge injustice through a strong, transparent legal system. Having wealth and knowledge without the right to express yourself makes little sense.
- Freedom to restructure your family’s finances across borders, spreading assets across jurisdictions and asset classes under the protection of robust financial and legal systems, so you can safeguard what you have built and leave a legacy for the next generation. Wealth with no safe place to keep it means living with constant worry.
A permanent residence card or a second citizenship can cost about as much as a luxury car or a downtown apartment, yet its value can last a lifetime: it does not depreciate over time or go out of date. Amid global and regional turbulence, this status becomes priceless: a personal safeguard and, in the hardest moments, a lifeline.
