EscapeWealth Launch
This week I am going to keep this exceptionally short and sweet. I have been busy working on a new, but related business venture. We have partnered with EscapeArtist to now run their asset protection portal – EscapeWealth. I am very excited about this project as it allows us to partner with the world’s leading […]
I’m Not Chicken Little
Last night I was working a bit on the computer on a couple of new projects. I found years ago that running multiple monitors dramatically increases my productivity. I keep various tasks on the monitors eliminating the need to switch back and forth. It really is a time saver. On one of the monitors I […]
Offshore Asset Protection Pt 2
In last week’s newsletter titled “Are We Slaves to the State”, I discussed the morality of taxation and a very short window of opportunity to save yourself an enormous amount of money on estate taxes. At the same time you can allow your heirs to opt out of the US tax trap with your estate. […]
The Procrastinator’s Doctrine
Over the past week I have spoken to a few existing and potential clients who still seem reluctant to ‘pull the trigger’ on completing their own asset protection plan. Yesterday, I spoke to a woman who mentioned that she realizes it is something she needs to do, but is struggling with the idea of spending […]
Protect Your Assets Now
In order to get the people to believe the US is the best place to do business, it must first BE the best place to do business. And this involves creating the proper incentives. I truly believe that a large part of this needs to begin with a massively overhauled tax code similar to what […]
Small Business Tax Hikes – Asset Protection
In a recent article from Bloomberg on June12th, Senator Snowe, a Republican from Maine, called the new jobs bill a ‘poison pill’ for small business growth and investment. Snowe is talking about HR 4213, so aptly named the “American Jobs and Closing Tax Loopholes Act of 2010”. Ironically, the loophole that looks to get closed […]
Asset Protection – Private Family Office
Last week I discussed an investment conference in Zurich that I attended a few weeks back. I came back armed with lots of new ideas and connections for those of us interested in the capital markets. I don’t normally pontificate on money management, but after that conference in Zurich, my mind was full and I had no choice but […]
Tax Free Tshirt Company in Nevis
As I mentioned previously in my blog, I have discovered a way for some of you to defer taxation on your business income. This, of course, requires an offshore asset protection strategy. There are many details involved and lots of restrictions, but I am going to use a theoretical example to illustrate. Joe runs a […]
A Flawed Tax System
A few weeks ago I went to the local mall here in Tartu to buy some dress clothes. I am not what you would call a ‘suit kinda guy’. But I was going to an investment conference in Zurich and thought the usual jeans and a t-shirt may be a bit too casual. Whenever I […]
Asset Protection for the Free Market Capitalist
Today I want to share with you my philosophical beliefs on capitalism and a free market in order to help you understand why asset protection planning is so important. Historically, capitalism has proven itself to be the only system that works efficiently, but it now seems the governments of the world are increasingly trying to […]
