FMT Hope

It’s Friday July 11th, and Christine received another life-saving FMT procedure here in Germany. We thank God and are SO grateful for the doctors and staff at Milz-Bieber clinic in Bad Gronenbach! We are hopeful the FMT will once again restore Christine’s gut biome and build defenses against C. Diff bacteria. We are hopeful a family doctor with some pain management experience will be able to help when we see him July 17th. But there is still so much we DON’T know:

• What is causing agonizing pain in her left arm?
• Why has the pain spread from wrist to her skull?
• Why are rashes appearing on her arm and face?
• Did antibiotics fight off her E. Coli infection?
• How can we get Christine to socialized healthcare?

We have no alternative: we must get Christine residence in a country with socialized healthcare. FMT is restricted by the FDA and 2 experts said Christine will “expire” within weeks if she is back in the United States.

From a settlement intended for Christine’s spinal surgeries, she is paying USD $30,000 a month for the clinic in Germany. If we can get residency (not full citizenship) in a country with normal healthcare, it will cost USD $300 a month on a private insurance plan for a year or two until we are accepted into the healthcare system. That’s a 99% discount.

Do you know someone who might know someone that knows about getting residence to another country? We are exploring countries that offer FMT: Australia, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Malta, Netherlands, Portugal, Singapore, Thailand, and the UK. We’ve contacted Henley & Partners, La Vida, and other expat firms, but would love a personal reference or referral.

If you “know a guy who knows a guy” please send a quick email jed@reitler.com. Thank you!

Plan B Brochure

---

If you live, work, bank, invest, operate a business, and hold all your
assets in the same country where you hold citizenship, you are placing all your resources in a single location. This approach assumes
that everything in that country will remain stable, regardless of global circumstances—a risky assumption.

Recent events have demonstrated how quickly situations can spiral
out of control. Relying solely on the hope that “everything will be
fine”, is a gamble. A well-thought-out contingency plan—commonly
referred to as Plan B—is an essential safeguard against unforeseen
disruptions. The events of the COVID-19 pandemic, for instance,
highlighted how rapidly life can shift from normal to chaotic.

Economic downturns, natural disasters, political instability, or even
minor bureaucratic errors can have devastating consequences. In
extreme cases, these events could jeopardize your finances, assets,
and even personal freedoms. However, taking proactive measures
to protect yourself and your family can significantly reduce these
risks.

Developing a Plan B is equivalent to creating an insurance policy tailored to your unique needs. While we typically insure tangible items
like health, property, or savings, some risks such as taxation changes, inflation, banking instability, or restrictions on capital require alternative strategies. Traditional insurance doesn’t cover these vulnerabilities, but a strategic Plan B can.

A Plan B can protect you from foreseeable risks while also positioning you to adapt and thrive in an unpredictable future. By taking
steps to protect your financial and personal security, you can ensure
stability and resilience, no matter what challenges arise in the global
or political landscape.

3 SIGNS YOU NEED A BACKUP PLAN

1. IT’S PRACTICAL NO MATTER THE CIRCUMSTANCES
2. A PLAN B MINIMIZES YOUR RISKS
3. A PLAN B POSITIONS YOU FOR NEW OPPORTUNITIES

WHAT IS A PLAN B PASSPORT?

A Plan B passport serves as a backup option in case your primary
citizenship becomes restrictive or less advantageous. It’s about diversification. Just as you wouldn’t put all your assets in one place,
relying on a single citizenship can limit your mobility, freedom, and
opportunities, especially in unpredictable times.

Even citizens of countries with strong passports, like the US or UK,
have turned to second citizenships to regain travel freedom during
events like the COVID-19 pandemic or political elections, using
these triggers as a push to relocate abroad. As investor Jim Rogers famously noted, having only one passport is a significant risk
in today’s world. A Plan B passport mitigates geopolitical risks and
ensures greater flexibility.

6 REASONS YOU NEED A SECOND PASSPORT

1. ENHANCED MOBILITY
2. QUALITY OF LIFE
3. FINANCIAL OPPORTUNITY
4. AUTONOMY
5. SECURITY
6. TAX MANAGEMENT
