A Bitcoin bank in El Salvador? That's the headline that sits atop this week’s Expat News, the third edition in this series, where I analyze the latest news affecting the expat world. We've had a lot of really great feedback about this new segment we're doing on the show, so I do plan on making this a regular aspect of the show, so enjoy today’s Expat News!   TODAY’S EDITION OF EXPAT NEWS: Listen in and get my take on El Salvador President Nayib Bukele’s place to create a “Bitcoin bank.” Learn about Portugal’s “brilliant” new housing policy, which is primed to scare off expats. Is Javier Milei really turning Argentina around? Argentina’s reported record surpluses seem to suggest that he may be seeing some success on the economic front. Could Turkey become the next expat crypto hub? Hear me dissect the recent announcement that the country will exempt profits from cryptocurrencies from taxation.  Discover which Caribbean nation is raising its CBI prices, as I have been warning about for some time.  Should there be concern over Mexico’s newly elected socialist President, Claudia Scheinbaum? I’ll examine her policies and how they could affect expats in the country. Uncover which Latin American country I am definitely not recommending for expats, particularly considering recent political events in that country. Lastly, we’ll look at the recent plea deal that freed heroic journalist Julian Assange.  LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK! How are you enjoying these “Expat News” segments?
