My problem with all the “traditional” networking places (and strategies) is that they’re full of wannabes. People who show up hoping to meet and impress successful people, while they don’t have anything to offer themselves. Lots of events are filled with this type of profile. I agree with you about networking with purpose, and meeting people that one can benefit from. Awesome video as always!
Same is true with most fields. Create a gathering for traders, the wealthy "made it" traders don't show up but wannabes who are just there to suck up knowledge without offering anything in return. The natural progression is that real traders will stop showing up. There has to be give and take.
@@infiltr80r Yes absolutely! People who made it generally don’t show up in these places/events! Most of the connections one can make are not really useful, as bunch of those people don’t have much to offer. And it definitely applies to every field.
Have you ever considered doing an event on offshore citizens, banking, residency, citizenship, and renouncement? As things open up I believe many people would want to attend.
Good video Michael. Someone else mentioned here in the comments that most events are overrun with wannabes who have nothing interesting to bring to the table. I agree with this and think that networking, above all, is also a skill. Anecdotal comment: Almost 20 years ago, I was in the car with a business partner on the way to a client. We had to fill up, I was waiting in the car, he just wanted to pay. I waited and waited. Then he came back to the car, I just thought "finally, let's get on with it", but instead he quickly rummaged for business cards and said he had met someone interesting. Sure, at the petrol station, where else? Later, at a sailing regatta, this business partner "coincidentally" met the CEO of one of the largest German hosting, ISP and mobile phone companies. Of course, sailing and his other hobby, golf, attract a certain clientele and realising contacts through leisure activities is certainly a good concept, because you save yourself the wannabes, but it still takes a certain talent to bag such contacts there.
@@OffshoreCitizen Still trying to evaluate my options and formulate a strategy. Your ideas in this videos definitely introduced new ideas for me. Thanks again.
@@OffshoreCitizen Create container events and meet people doing the things you would do anyway. Set up little workshops and gatherings and invite people along the way!
Can you elaborate a bit on why the Family Offices crowd isn't your scene? I am haven't been to one. Are they more "old money" and/or are they try to sell you investments? Great idea on the Angel Investing groups! I'll be checking out the ones in Vancouver.
@@OffshoreCitizen That's what I suspected too. Family Office is probably a great forum for old school institutions will try to sell their products to the rich folks. I'm trying to learn more about how to get involved in the mid-funding stage (round 2~3) of venture capital financing. Do you know how someone might be able to get involve in that world?
High yield stocks are becoming cheap: IEP.. ORC.. OPP.. SHLX Michael you mentioned an engineer.. I can contract prototype work to an Eectro Mechanical engineer..
@@OffshoreCitizen Nice video! Thank you 👍 Also, that would be great if you try to explain difference between passports/permits and tax residency. For example, we got temporary or permanent residency in Georgia where territorial tax system, so how we act next? Will we become automatically a tax resident of Georgia? What if we live less than 6 months in any country? How to handle that situation? So many questions... 🤔 I think that would be interesting for lots of people here indeed 🙂👌
No he doesn’t, he is just not an emotional thinker, he is a logical thinker. So his voice comes out logical and straightforward. If you want something different, go for Nicki Minaj or some wannabe who doesn’t actually know what they’re talking about.

You're definitely right about that.
Thanks for the support!☺

Yes, we’re thinking about organizing an event in the future :)
Great content and inspirational suggestions. Thank you for sharing!

True. Good story, thanks for sharing.
Do you think it's more of a talent, or a skill?
Love these types of vids!
Thanks!
What's your take on it?
@@OffshoreCitizen I’ll be trying out all these things
Thank you for the ideas in this video. Most I haven’t hear and will be checking some of them out!
You're welcome! Always happy to be of service☺
Do you have a networking strategy?
@@OffshoreCitizen Still trying to evaluate my options and formulate a strategy. Your ideas in this videos definitely introduced new ideas for me. Thanks again.
To network optimally, wear a dress that says Tax The Rich...
That was an oxymoron with the dress she was wearing. If she showed up wearing garbage bags then she might be taken seriously.
Thanks for the video presentation!
Always a pleasure. Any tips you'd like to share?

Generally I don't find they are very good investors and tends to attract more of a corporate scene

You sound too monotone

U talk too much. Get to the point…
