Dozens of jurisdictions offer offshore corporations, LLCs, trusts, and foundations, but every offshore attorney has his go-to choices. My Belize attorney prefers St. Lucia because a St. Lucia structure can help to mitigate tax liability when doing business in Belize. One U.S. attorney I know works mostly with Belize entities; another likes Nevis. How should […]
At my Global Asset Protection and Wealth Summit in Panama City last week, the single most frequently asked question was this: “What can I do to make my passive income qualify for the Foreign Earned Income Exclusion… so I don’t have to pay tax on it?” The answer is: Nothing. There’s nothing an American can […]
A friend who recently took his first plunge into non-U.S. real estate investing told some of his friends about the opportunity he was buying into. What he’s buying into is an agricultural project in Panama that I’ve been telling you about for the past 20 months. I should have prepared the guy for the reaction […]
Americans aren’t the only ones getting ready to elect a new president. Another presidential race will be decided this month. Argentina finally, hopefully, will get out from under the ridiculous and disastrous economic policies of current President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner. Estimates are that Cristina will leave the country with as little as US$8 million […]
When most people think about investing in metals, they think precious metals—gold, silver, platinum, and palladium. I’d say precious metals are not as much an investment as a hedge against inflation… and the price of gold may be more manipulated than Russian politics.

Traveling to and through the United States are among my least favorite things thanks to ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement). Don’t get me wrong, I still enjoy spending time in the States. It’s the coming and the going that I dread. They run propaganda videos while you’re standing in line telling you about the process […]
The doom-and-gloomers continue banging the drums: It’s the end of the world… the end of the world… end of the world… just around the corner… Maybe… but doom and gloom isn’t my thing. I’m more interested in options for action. One option you have is to create a backup plan. Should the dollar collapse, euro-land […]
It’s a sign of our times. Some people I spoke with had already invested in obtaining second citizenships and were asking my thoughts on what to do with their second passports. They understood that having two passports was a good idea but weren’t quite sure how to take advantage of the assets now that they’d […]
How are you going to be able to afford the retirement you’ve been dreaming about? Maybe you should defer the idea… keep working for five or six or more years longer… until you’ve been able to set a little more aside… Nah, that’s not the answer. As I explained to the crowd assembled in Orlando […]
The currency gods have conspired against the doom-and-gloomers who have been predicting (even, it seems to me sometimes, demanding) the demise of the U.S. dollar. The dollar continues to appreciate against many currencies, including the currencies of commodity-producing countries such as Colombia, Brazil, Canada, Australia, Chile, and New Zealand. Over the last 30 days, the […]
