What We Wish Every American Investor Knew

In this episode of Swiss Money Secrets, Jamie Vrijhof-Droese, Urs Vrijhof-Droese, and Jess Roberson explore the most common blind spots U.S. investors have when it comes to international diversification, currency exposure, and long-term wealth protection.

They discuss why owning multiple U.S. assets does not necessarily mean you’re diversified, and how most investors remain fully exposed to the U.S. dollar without realizing it. The conversation also dives into the overlooked impact of currency risk on long-term wealth, how inflation silently compounds over generations, and the difference between offshore banking myths and reality. Along the way, they examine purchasing power erosion, government debt, privacy, generational planning, why “doing nothing” is often the riskiest strategy, and how to prepare wealth for future generations in an increasingly uncertain world.

This episode is designed to educate — not alarm — and to help investors think more clearly about resilience, optionality, and long-term financial stability.

Watch the full episode to understand what offshore banking actually means — and why it matters now more than ever.
