The US Gold Card vs. Global Citizenship Strategy
The US Gold Card vs. Global Citizenship Strategy

A Cost-Benefit Comparison
The US recently announced a new “Gold Card” program that offers wealthy investors a green card and a path to eventual citizenship in exchange for a $5 million donation. At first glance, this may seem attractive to many, but upon closer inspection, there are alternative strategies that offer significantly better value for money.
The US “Gold Card”: An expensive dream?
The “Gold Card” promises access to the US, a country with enormous economic opportunity and global influence. But the price is high: $5 million for a green card and the potential path to citizenship.
A smart alternative: citizenship diversification
Instead of putting all your eggs in one basket, we suggest a diversified strategy that gives you more flexibility, more benefits and a better financial outcome:
A) Malta Citizenship by Investment:
For a fraction of the cost of the “Gold Card” (around $1.2 million), you can get Maltese citizenship and with it an EU passport that gives you visa-free travel to over 180 countries – similar to a US passport.
The waiting period is only about 18 months.
PLUS
B) Vanuatu Passport:
Invest in the Vanuatu passport to benefit from 0% income tax. You pay no taxes on your worldwide income.
Plus
Live in paradise (or anywhere else):
Instead of living in the US, where the cost of living can be high, choose a country of your choice with lower costs and a high quality of life. Popular options include Thailand, Montenegro or Serbia, where you can build your dream home.
In Montenegro or Serbia, for example, by investing in a property you will also receive a permanent residence permit (ID card)
The financial advantage
With this strategy you invest significantly less than 5 million US dollars and at the same time receive:
- Two powerful passports with different advantages.
- Three possible future places of residence, thus three pillars for independence
- Tax exemption with 0%.
- The freedom to live in your desired country.
- The freedom to live where you want and always have a plan B in case the next “plandemic” comes and you can switch
- The freedom for your children to die as soldiers when they are of draft age
- The freedom to never have to put all your eggs in one basket and to remain independent
There is a considerable amount left of the original 5 million USD amount with which you can easily spend your retirement in the countries mentioned.
Even if the new president eventually abolishes income tax in the US, it would be better to stick to this strategy in direct comparison, as the cost of living in the Balkans is half as cheap as in the US.
In addition, here in Montenegro or Serbia, and generally in the Balkan states, traditional values are more respected and are held in high regard. America has already proven several times in the past that it is morally and culturally too polluted at its core. It will take generations to clean this up. Millions have left the country, so why would millions of people now want to move there? It makes no sense, especially not for rich people who have other better and cheaper options elsewhere, to obtain a new citizenship.
Conclusion:
The US “Gold Card” may be attractive to some, but a diversified citizenship strategy offers more flexibility, more benefits and a better financial result. Before investing $5 million in a single option, consider the alternatives.
If you still want to have the Gold Card, we ask you to contact another agent or lawyer who will certainly assist you due to the processing fee.
