At first glance, Donald Trump and Willy Wonka share an unexpected similarity; both are influential, unconventional figures who control access to exclusive realms. While Wonka’s golden ticket sought a successor fueled by creativity and integrity, Trump’s Gold Card offers U.S. residency but only for those who can afford the hefty price tag. Hosts Neil Ghai & Prachi Verma, joined by Sukanya Raman, Country Head of Davies & Associates, Rajiv Khanna, Managing Attorney at Immigration.com, and David Lesperance, Managing Director of Lesperance & Associates, unpack the sharp differences between the EB-5 visa, a long-standing route for foreign investors and Trump’s Gold Card, a glitzier, costlier option with fewer obligations. They dive into what the Gold Card truly offers, the tax incentives it teases for the ultra-wealthy, and whether it’s a groundbreaking approach or simply EB-5 with a premium upgrade. As America’s immigration doors open wider but only for those with deep pockets we ask: Is this the new face of the American Dream?
