291: Unschooling: Learning Off The Beaten Path – Joshua Sheats

The Expat Money Show - With Mikkel Thorup

In the third and final installment of our three-part series, Joshua and I dive even deeper into the vast array of knowledge Joshua has acquired over the years, both through his own research and his real-life experience educating his own five children. Enjoy! Joshua is an expert financial planner who teaches normal people how to seamlessly connect the science of financial planning with the joy of goal achievement. He is the host of the Radical Personal Finance podcast and, as you’ve heard across this three-part series, is also passionate about education and worldschooling with his five children.

What an incredible conversation with Joshua Sheats! I was so grateful that he was able to devote three hours of his time to discuss the very important educational concepts he has learned through homeschooling, unschooling and worldschooling his five children. If you missed parts 1 and 2, be sure to go back and check out the last two episodes. Together, they will completely alter how you look at the concept of learning; I guarantee it. I’ll see you next Wednesday!

Veritas Panama - Offgrid Community

After 17 months of bureaucracy, my partners and I successfully got our permits for Veritas Panama! This is the fully off-grid community we are building in the highlands of Panama. We have already started building the roads, subdividing the lots, installing the septic and water, and even installing solar panels, so everything is independent of the power grid! The site we chose is unbelievable; we are up at a flat plateau about a thousand feet up a mountain with incredible unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean. To go to the beach, it is just 15 minutes down to the water. We have mature fruit trees on site, including these gorgeous 200-year-old mango trees and many other things, such as avocado trees, papayas, and delicious tropical fruits. You can find out more information and contact us at VeritasPanama.com But please be aware that there are only 100 home sites, and without even talking about this to the general public, a lot of the lots are already sold… So if you dream of living in a completely off-grid community, enjoying the beautiful weather, close to the beach, being food, water, and energy independent, and want to have like-minded and cool neighbours, people who respect personal, medical, and economic freedoms, then I want you to contact us at VeritasPanama.com today
