Offshore
Funds Offer Profit, Protection & Privacy: How Do We Buy Them Safely?
- I’m going to lift the censorship on some of the best funds you’ve
never heard of—including funds that have produced outstanding returns during
both the bull and bear markets. I’ll also tell you the do’s and don’ts
of investing in offshore funds. Offshore funds present some of the
most profitable investment opportunities available internationally. However,
there are certain "tax traps" for unwary U.S. investors who purchase offshore
funds without considering the tax consequences. I’ll explain how these
caveats and how to avoid them. By Mark Nestmann

Six
Reasons to Invest Offshore - Consider The New York Times.
In a recent front page article about an IRS crackdown on tax shelters,
reporter David Cay Johnson wrote: “These actions come after a decade in
which enforcement of the tax laws grew so lax that the tax shelter industry
flourished and tax crimes, like opening secret offshore bank accounts,
openly advertised.”

How
to Choose an Offshore Haven - To begin with, you should
understand that each "offshore" haven is unique. A country that provides
the best banking regulations won’t necessarily be the best place for incorporating
a business, just as the best jurisdiction for privacy won’t necessarily
be the best for an offshore trust. Yet, there are general guidelines for
choosing an asset haven that apply across the board. The following are
the more important considerations.

International
Investment Made Easy - You too can gain the sovereignty
and freedom that comes from having mobile income. Tax lien services are
one good way to attain this. The Internet and international direct
mail means almost anyone can use merchandising tools to offer products
and services abroad for greater independence and fun. Whether you offer
tax lien services or something else, “go global my friend!” You dramatically
increase your asset safety, increase your wealth and broaden your horizons.

Important Reasons You Should Own Non-U.S. Investments In Your Retirement
Plan - Are you interested in international real estate?
Well, your IRA or pension plan can own raw land, condos, office buildings,
single or multi-family homes, apartment buildings and improved land, so
long as the real estate is not for your current personal use. For many
investors, their retirement plans have become one of, if not, the largest
asset they have. Clearly, it is vitally important to have these assets
in a position where they can provide access to the global trading markets,
the world’s best investments and money managers and added asset protection.

How
to Overcome the Greatest Threats to Your Wealth - Then,
there’s the biggest whopper of them all: the myth that the U.S. dollar,
the currency in which most members will receive their retirement benefits,
will preserve its value. The dollar has lost over 95% of its value in the
last 85 years. Nor is it likely to recover its value, given a US$600 billion
annual budget deficit, a US$500 billion annual balance of trade gap and
unfunded federal government obligations that now total an astonishing US$44
trillion. By Mark Nestmann

Never
Pay U.S. Taxes Again - Legally - Becoming a tax exile
is not without problems, but, so far, they are more political than legal.
The source of the current controversy over expatriation was a sensational
article in the Nov. 24, 1994 issue of Forbes magazine, entitled “The New
Refugees.” Filled with juicy details (famous names, luxury addresses, big
dollar tax savings), the story described how clever ex-Americans who became
citizens of certain foreign nations, paid little or no U.S. federal and
state income, estate and capital gains taxes. By Robert E. Bauman, JD

Obscure
Tax Havens of the World - At The Sovereign Society, we constantly
refer to our top four financial havens—Switzerland, Panama, Liechtenstein,
and Hong Kong (with Austria as honorable mention for its banking secrecy).But
there are several other tax and asset protection havens out there. Each
of these lesser-known havens has its own specialties that may be worth
considering. Take the Isle of Man—it’s a leader in annuities and life insurance
as investment vehicles. Nevis is great for asset protection trusts and
is one of only two nations that might arrange for immediate economic citizenship
and a second passport. By Robert E. Bauman, JD

Government Attempts to Spy on Your Finances - No broker reporting
requirements apply to purchases or sales of collectibles: art, diamonds,
antiques, stamps, rare coins, etc. Another reason collectibles are valuable
as a private investment is that they do not generate current income. Nor
are dealers required to notify any government authority when you sell collectibles

Switzerland’s
Hidden Gems: The Sovereign Society Unveils a Treasure-Trove of Value-Play
Shares - In a world where most CEOs hype their company’s
prospects, it’s refreshing to see how the Swiss describe their companies
in the most conservative terms possible. Pilatus Bahn’s CEO, André
Zimmermann, described the 2003 tourism season as being “at a low.” Well,
the number of passengers riding the railroad up to the peak of Pilatus
peak rose 11.8% to 321,457, and revenue from the sale of tickets climbed
12.8% to SFr10.8 million. The hotels, restaurants, and shops on the mountaintop
brought in another SFr5.0 million in revenues, up 12.9% from the previous
year. Despite the increase in business, the company’s costs sank by 2%,
leading to cash flow of SFr3.9 million, up a whopping 50%. The Sovereign
