Coming Institutional Reports for 2025

QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, I have followed you for three years. I can see why you are regarded as the world’s highest-paid advisor and have offices worldwide. You are also the only advisor not blocked around the globe. I want to ask what would be the fee to advise our government here __________________ ? I was told some pay you over $100 million annually. This is a time when your independence is greatly needed.

Respectfully;

ANSWER: Thank you very much for the inquiry. Because of this law in the USA 18 USC 951, accepting money from any foreign government necessitates registering as a foreign agent of that government. Let me make this very clear. I am willing to provide any advice for governments to help society. However, I cannot accept any money or a gift, including airfare or expenses. I cover my own costs and cannot accept anything in return.  The law assumes I would be lobbying on behalf of a foreign government with the USA. While I do not engage in such activity, I cannot accept money or gifts from any foreign government, and to be fair, I also apply that rule to the United States. That way, everyone outside the USA will realize we maintain strict independence.

We are preparing several Institutional Reports on governments for 2025. You can subscribe to Socrates or buy reports, but I cannot charge for any direct advice whatsoever to any government.
