Episode Details

Financial guru Andrés González is willing to shell out another 400K euros for a property in Andorra—bringing his total to a million—to dodge learning Catalan, joking he’ll buy it by year’s end just to be left alone. But don’t count on it: while new passive residency rules require 1M euros in investment starting 2026, Andorra’s language mandate won’t vanish. By 2029, all residents—including remote workers and digital entrepreneurs—will need to prove basic Catalan skills on renewal, escalating to intermediate levels. González’s stance exposes the tension between financial incentives and cultural integration as Andorra pushes for broader Catalan fluency across its population.
