"At present, you must be‍ resident in Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria or Germany to be able to invest responsibly with wiLLBe."⁠
 
Just a resident? Nothing easier‍ than that, rent a place for a month in one of these countries and register⁠ with the city.

No need to wait till you own millions to open an account⁤ 🙂
 
Or the alternate interpretation of⁠ the sentence - I can live elsewhere and invest irresponsibly 😉
 
Not sure‍ if they let you enter with the drill bit daytime though ;-)
Account is E200⁠ deposit for residents of the semi-German speaking countries.
And that's really easy done, even on⁤ a tourist visa you can register with the city.
 
LI is not suitable for mid 6 figures.

Maybe spread things out across different countries‌ outside of the EU. For example, the Barclays International account in the UK can be‍ opened with a deposit of £100,000: International Bank Account | Barclays International Bank.

You can also open another account in the US, and maybe a couple others in SEA⁠ countries.

The rest in gold and crypto.

And leave a little bit to take your⁤ ex-wife shopping. It will make your life far less stressful.
 
Why do‌ you say this? 🙄
I'm trying to understand if you mean we need to open the‍ account with more or less. It's not clear to me.
Great point! I like the £250K option, but I⁢ don't care for a relationship manager. What do they do for us that we can't︀ do ourselves?

Any recommendations? State and banks?
For example? Any recommendations? Country and banks?

Thank you!
 
Barclays IOM: £100K/€118K or £250K/€296K there without interest makes no sense. You're giving away a‌ lot of money. There's basically 3.6% interest elsewhere.
 
Xtrackers II EUR Overnight Rate Swap UCITS‌ ETF 1C: LU0290358497 (Accumulating)
Xtrackers II EUR Overnight Rate Swap UCITS ETF 1D: LU0335044896 (Distributing)‍

I have the first one.
 
@scooterguy but mainly @jafo & @nobel: The︄ original question was about countries that still have relatively good banking privacy. So not much︅ about economic aspects and definitely not about 0% or 3,5% interest. Feel free to open︆ a new thread for this (it is an interesting topic; I can move your posts︇ there afterwards) but do not hijack this one. Thanks!
 
smi(&% Sorry for my schizophrenia - I saw an⁣ opportunity to gain some market esoteric knowledge, and I took the shot! 😉

PS. To be⁢ perfectly honest, I didn't even remember the original question until you mentioned it, and I︀ scrolled back up to look. smi(&%
I can't even recall what I had for breakfast yesterday!︁ I'll pay closer attention next time. I apologize for my oversight! ange¤%&
 
NGL, this helped me out a LOT! I didn't know this. I opened an account already,‌ and it went super smoothly! 😉
 
did they bug you‍ for some extended kyc madness regarding source of funds etc?
 
🙂 🙂 🙂 NGL usually⁣ serves as an acronym for Not Gonna Lie 😉

So I guess @jafo has just opened⁢ an account with wiLLBe (he possesses a suitable residency, AFAIK) 🙂 Correct, @jafo?
 
Not Gonna Lie
Not yet! But if they do, I'll just ignore‍ them smi(&%
Correct!
 
True. They are probably following Switzerland in this regard. Some Swiss banks also easily open accounts‌ for residents of neighbouring countries.
