@thealepalombo Great analysis Alessandro. Only grey point:difficult to compare Lugano and Milan because one can choose any of them and live both of them being less than one hour away.

Where to live in Europe with family in 2026, tax-optimised? Almost no European city delivers all six of these together anymore: -Low taxes -Kids who can walk to school safely -International schools that actually exist -Healthcare you'd actually use in an emergency -An airport within 2 hours -A tax regime that won't get killed in the next election The ones that still do are not the ones on most lists. I'm Italian. I've been living in Portugal with my wife for a few years. I've run this spreadsheet across the continent. 12 cities. Part I with the first 6 below. 🧵

I'm Italian. For my entire life, I've heard people say they want to move to Milan, Florence, maybe Rome. But where in Italy are the hidden gem cities that even locals overlook? I mapped 8 hidden cities where wealthy Italians live their best lives, completely off the radar. These aren't unknown cheap places. These are cities with world-class architecture, incredible food, and a cost of living that actually lets you enjoy life. I filmed the full breakdown with property prices per square meter, who each city is actually for, and the honest downsides you need to know. Cities including: Trieste where you're at the crossroads of three countries. Lucca with 4 kilometers of intact Renaissance walls. Lecce carved from golden stone that glows at sunset. Bergamo with Europe's busiest airport that nobody explores. Turin – Italy's most underrated big city. €250,000 gets you 150+ square meters in most of these cities. In Milan? 50 square meters. Watch it here:

The Greek Golden Visa gets frequently hyped. I get it, it's a good program. But let's look at the numbers. Greece is now sitting at €400K–€800K for real estate. Your capital gets locked into the Greek property market before you even apply. Then you wait 12–16 months for approval. Italy's investor visa €250K startup route works differently: • Visa approved first, you only invest after • 3–6 months total processing • Full Schengen access immediately • Spouse and family included • No minimum residency to renew • Infinitely renewable (2+3, endlessly) Half the capital, less than half the time, and your money is not at risk while you wait. Italy has kept the same €250K threshold since 2017. Greece has changed its rules multiple times, thresholds up, categories in and out. Program stability matters when you're making a long-term residency decision. Greece's own startup option is not comparable: you're required to create two direct jobs within the first year and maintain them for five years. Lose one employee and you lose your renewal. Italy has none of these constraints. The Italian Investor Visa has been flying under the radar for years. Not because the program is weak, but because nobody built products targeting it.

@thealepalombo I fully agree with you

Zug as the next Dubai? I've lived in both and I can't understand this article. If you want to incorporate in Zug, it works well. And if you want to Swissmax, living in Lucerne with a company in Zug, 20 minutes away, is a great combo. But Dubai vs Zug is not comparable. It's like comparing a sports car to an SUV. Zug's winter is serious and the Swiss lifestyle is the opposite of Dubai's. I'd live in Switzerland again and I'll soon write a post about Swissmaxing. Swiss stability is unmatched. But this comparison surprises me. If you're leaving Dubai and want something closer to that energy: Singapore and Hong Kong are the obvious moves (yet with major differences). Thailand can be surprisingly similar, especially for shorter stays. In Europe: Italy's flat tax, or Malta/Cyprus non-dom work well. Do you actually know someone who moved from Dubai to Zug? Where are your friends moving from Dubai? Are they?

Italy is back. I'm Italian. For the first time in years, I'm genuinely excited to write about my country. Thousands have moved back under tax exemption programs. Milan is now one of the most millionaire‑dense cities in the world. I just published my complete 2026 Italy guide. Everything I've learned helping high-net-worth clients evaluate Italy as a strategic base. But also sharing a lot that nobody's talking about. Because for most, the real opportunity isn't Milan. It's what's happening in places most Italians even will never think to visit, let alone move to. So in this guide I share the exact towns where the arbitrage is real with the four tax regimes nobody explains correctly. And other niche insights you won't find anywhere else. Like why Martina Franca beats Ostuni. Why Monopoli has what Polignano had 15 years ago at 30-40% lower prices. The Brindisi calculation nobody makes. Trapani's new Ryanair base with €928/sqm property. These aren't generic "move to Italy" tips. My goals as always is to share operational intelligence: which profile you fall into, where you should actually live, what the real trade-offs are. Read the full guide, link below 👇

Italy Golden Visa by Investment in Startups ⁦@thealepalombo⁩ luxvita.it

Move to Italy. Get a 50–60% tax exemption on your income for five years. You don't need to retire to benefit: this is for professionals, founders, and remote workers. For many, it's even more advantageous than Portugal's IFICI regime. You could pay as little as 9% effective tax. The exemption applies to both employees and freelancers, up to €600K per year. You do need a university degree or equivalent qualification to access it. To qualify, you must not have been tax resident in Italy for the past three years and must stay at least four (or repay the benefit). If you have a child, the exemption rises to 60%. Example: earn $85K with one child, you'd pay about $5–6K in tax and keep $79–80K. Keep in mind: employees also pay social security contributions, typically 20%+ on gross income. This isn't a pure tax play. It's decent, not extraordinary, but still competitive for the lifestyle you get. Or you can choose the €300K flat tax regime for up to 15 years. Four of my friends moved to Italy in the last six months. Some of our investors are choosing the flat tax. You can also retire in small villages in the South and pay 7% flat on all foreign income for 10 years. Capital gains, dividends, pensions, rental income. All of it. These regimes exist today and won't necessarily exist tomorrow. Better a year early than a single day late.

Italy is back.

We can build walls or we can be more ambitious — and build something better, stronger, and more just.

In an era of great power rivalry, Canada is choosing to be principled and pragmatic. To name reality, to act together, and to build what we claim to believe in.

Italy is back. The 2025 wealth migration data confirmed it. The UK overtook China as the world's biggest millionaire exodus. Early indications showing this could DOUBLE in 2026. And they're going to Italy. Here's what the numbers show: - €300K flat tax attracting ultra-wealthy - 7% retiree tax in towns like Sorrento, Taormina, Capri - 50-60% professional exemptions (9-15% effective rates) - €250K Golden Visa – HALF of Portugal's requirement - Milan's wealthy resident count has doubled Why are millionaires choosing Italy over Dubai or Singapore? I filmed a breakdown of all four key tax programs, the real estate arbitrage (€950/sqm coastal properties), and why this might be the biggest lifestyle opportunity in decades.

Il pluripremiato regista iraniano Jafar #Panahi ha affermato che i leader iraniani non saranno in grado di mantenere il controllo del paese dopo la violenta repressione delle recenti proteste, prevedendo che il sistema alla fine crollerà. "È impossibile per questo governo reggersi in piedi in questa situazione", ha detto Panahi al @Guardian. Ha affermato che il recente blackout di Internet segnala che le autorità si stanno preparando a una violenza su larga scala. "Sapevamo che sarebbe stato un massacro", ha detto. "Ma non avremmo mai previsto che avrebbe raggiunto queste dimensioni". Panahi ha affermato che è impossibile prevedere i tempi di un eventuale crollo, ma ha aggiunto: "Il regime crollerà, al 100%". #IranRevolution2026 #Iran #IRGCterrorists @RadioRadicale #Turchia

Il giovane rapper iraniano Meraj Tehrani ha pubblicato sui suoi canali social un video, registrato dopo l’arrivo in Turchia con l’ultimo volo dall’Iran, in cui lancia un appello in lacrime: "Soltanto l'aiuto dall'estero ci salverà. Trump o chiunque altro faccia qualcosa. Stanno uccidendo tutti, anche i bambini".

CI SIAMO! Già questa notte potrebbe essere la notte degli ayatollah, in particolare di #Khamenei con i 12.000 giovani trucidati nelle vie e nelle strade dell'#Iran. Khamenei sta provocato #Trump da diversi giorni, definendolo un "tiranno" e minacciandolo, dicendo che "sarà rovesciato". La cosiddetta guida suprema sembra non aver compreso bene che la sua ora sta per scoccare. Finalmente, a 86 anni la suo orribile vita sta per finire... @RadioRadicale #Turchia

ULTIM'ORA: Un oceano di persone occupa in queste ore le strade di #Teheran. La Folla cresce enormemente anche questa sera. Gli iraniani si rifiutano di arrendersi, resisteranno fino all'abbattimento della Repubblica islamica. #IranRevelution2026 #IRGCterrorists @RadioRadicale #Turchia
