George

founder & investor

[George @georgehkt]

“Everyone told me to pick one thing. I did the opposite.”

I trade stocks.

I run a stock research company.

I’m building a private investment business.

I run a tax relocation company.

I build funnels.

I run an AI visibility agency.

And I have a few offline businesses on the side.

To some people, that sounds completely chaotic.

To me, it makes perfect sense.

And obviously, I’m not sitting there doing everything myself today.

I have a team of 20 people helping me run and build these businesses.

But it didn't start that way.

About 10 years ago, I started with crypto. Yes like everyone in the Bitcoin boom.

I quickly realized something: if you want to play seriously in finance, you need capital.

I didn’t have much.

So instead of complaining about it, I learned a skill. along with my job that was paying me well.

I taught myself how to build websites and funnels, do marketing, run Facebook ads, generate leads, and sell services.

I learned everything myself.

That became my first real business and, more importantly, gave me something I still consider a huge advantage today:

A skill I can always fall back on.

If markets go south, I can build funnels.

If one business slows down, I can create another service.

If I see a problem in a market, I can build a solution.

Eventually, I built enough capital to pursue what I actually loved: trading and stock research.

And don't get me wrong.

The agency/service business never really disappeared.

I just put it on the shelf for about five years while I went all-in on trading.

Now people ask:

“But how do you do all of this at once?”

Simple.

Demand.

I see a problem.

I see people willing to pay for a solution.

I know how to build the solution.

So why wouldn't I?

Why my tax relocation firm?

Because I spent years learning about international taxation and building a complex structure for my own businesses, while developing a network of professionals.

I saw demand.

So I built a company around it.

Why AI visibility?

Because I experienced the problem myself with my research company.

I saw a gap in how businesses get discovered through AI.

I found a solution.

So I built an agency around it.

Why funnel building?

Because I've built funnels for clients in the past that generated millions in sales.

The knowledge is already there.

Why let it sit unused?

And trading?

Trading is my passion.

But the funny thing is that trading can also be incredibly boring.

I don't need to stare at charts for 10 hours a day.

Sometimes I'm waiting for an A+ setup for hours.

I might take 10 trades in an entire month.

When you have big capital, you don't necessarily need to trade constantly.

So what do you do with the rest of your time? (Except living, I still have a personal fulfilled live don't get me wrong.)

You build businesses.

And when the businesses grow?

You build teams.

That's the part people often miss.

I'm not trying to personally do 100 people's jobs.

I'm building systems, companies and teams that can operate without me doing every single task.

And if there's one thing I'd tell someone starting today:

Don't obsess over finding the one thing you're supposed to do for the rest of your life.

Build skills first.

Skills give you options.

Options give you freedom.

I didn't know 10 years ago that I'd eventually be trading, running research, building tax businesses, working in AI, building funnels and managing a team of 20 people.

I just learned something useful, made money from it, invested that money, learned something else, and kept moving.

You don't need to have the whole map.

You just need to learn the next skill.

Then the next one.

Then use what you learned to create the next opportunity.

Your first business doesn't have to be your final business.

Your first skill doesn't have to be your life's career.

And your current situation doesn't have to define where you end up.

Learn. Build. Compound. Adapt.

That's how you create options.

And eventually, those options become freedom.

You don't have to fit yourself into one box just because everyone else does.

You can be a trader, entrepreneur, marketer, investor, builder, researcher and whatever else interests you.

Running businesses in completely different industries isn't strange.

It's just what happens when you stop asking:

“What should I do?”

and start asking:

“What opportunity can I build around?”

You don't need one path. You need enough skills to create your own.

And you don't need to fit yourself into a box just because that's what everyone else expects from you.

Build a life that makes you happy.

If that's one business, great.
If that's five businesses, great.
If you change direction ten times, that's fine too.

The point isn't to fit the life you're building into someone else's definition of success.

The point is to build a life you're actually happy living.

Wise and Revolut didn’t reinvent banking.

They reinvented how quickly you can get blocked.

A traditional bank does much of its risk assessment before it lets you in.

Fintechs can onboard you in minutes and monitor the risk afterward.

Then one transaction looks unusual.

The algorithm flags it.

Your account gets restricted.

And suddenly:

Your money is “under review.”

That’s the trade-off.

You got speed, convenience and a beautiful app.

You also accepted that a risk system you don’t control can become the gatekeeper to your money.

The faster the onboarding, the less of the relationship is built on trust.

It’s built on automated risk management.

And when the system says “no”?

Good luck explaining yourself to a machine.

Europe once had access to Russian gas at roughly $150.

Now, imported U.S. LNG can cost around $1,000, with some forecasts putting winter prices as high as $1,500.

Energy policy has a price.

Europe is paying it.

Living in the EU is nice.

Living in the EU with a non-EU border 20 minutes away?

Even better.

If the EU ever goes full madness, you’re 30 minutes away by car from another option outside it.

Stay sharp.

Leaving a country doesn't necessarily make its tax rules irrelevant.

Your departure year and continuing connections can still matter.

[George @georgehkt]

Imagine this:

Country A says:

“You are tax resident here.”

Country B says:

“No. You are tax resident here.”

Who is right?

Potentially, both.

Different countries have different domestic tax-residence rules.

A person can therefore meet the residence criteria of more than one country at the same time.

This is often called dual residence.

That doesn't necessarily mean the person will ultimately be treated as resident in both countries for every tax purpose.

If a tax treaty applies, it may contain rules for resolving the conflict.

And the answer depends on the actual facts.

This is why international tax residence isn't just about finding a country with a low tax rate.

The details of the move matter.

Would you know what facts determine your tax residence if you moved tomorrow?
