Serious question, but not entirely related to the topic - how are “smart” people in the US preparing for the next 20-30 years?

- Assume everything will be fine and America will remain a global economic superpower.

- Plan an exit to a more serious, stable country.

- Some option in the middle of the two to hedge your bets?

I'm investing in property in places that will allow me to get permanent residency without jumping through too many hoops.

You theoretically lose yield compared to the S&P average - but if you're hedging your bets against the US possibly going to shit - the S&P is unlikely to perform as well as its historic average IFF that scenario unfolds.

Seems like a better hedge than gold, but my crystal ball isn't working.
