The Free Ride Is Over!
Dear Friend,
Bureaucrats in most over-civilized nations realize that their "free ride" could soon be over as more and more of their citizen-slaves find creative ways not to pay their unfair share, e.g. by setting up offshore bank accounts and corporations.
These bureau_rats have never earned an honest dollar in their lives, and now see that the taxes they have grown accustomed to stealing so easily are increasingly being withheld from their greedy clutches. It's obvious that they don't like it!
Winston Churchill once said "We contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle."
It simply doesn't work, that is why we pay more and more taxes each year, and we get further behind and deeper in debt.
Therefore, the offshore tide is getting bigger and bigger. A couple of years from now, millions of people will be taking advantage of offshore products and services. You can be one of the pioneers... right now!
Remember never Lie, Cheat, or Steal your government does not like the Competition!
GETTING STARTED
One of the first and most important steps is to educate yourself about HOW the government is robbing you blind, WHY you've been allowing it to happen, and WHAT you can do about it.
This Website will provide a great introduction to all matters "offshore" - and additional links to the main CSI International site where you'll find even more offshore information. This will enable you to educate yourself and build
a strong philosophical foundation for those tough times to come.
The next step is to spread the message - forward this Website address to everyone you know and ask them to do the same! The world is rapidly approaching the "critical mass" where
major changes for the better will be inevitable. However, until
then it will get a lot worse as bureaucrats join politicians and
other parasites in their increasingly desperate and violent
campaign designed to keep their ill-gained benefits.
If you tend to procrastinate on taking decisive action, just...
Sooner or later you'll have to decide for yourself whether you
want to contribute to the problem, or to the solution - and we
strive to provide you with the required background information
so that you can make a truly informed decision!
If I can be of further assistance please feel free to contact
me anytime!

Offshore Is Some Place Else
Offshore simply means having a legal entity, in a jurisdiction (country) other than where you live, which has the ability to own assets. This entity can be a trust, a company, or even your own personal bank account. In other words "offshore" simply means somewhere else. It doesn't mean you have to live somewhere else, only that you control such entities that are.
Why would you want to control a legal entity that exists in another country? For the privacy and tax advantages it affords. In that respect, the popular offshore jurisdictions are what are known as "tax havens" - places in which tax is legally not payable. These jurisdictions are all over the world - places like Jersey, the Isle of Man, Belize, Turks & Caicos, The British Virgin Islands, the Cayman Islands, Bermuda, Panama, Malta, Antigua & Barbuda, Costa Rica - and even in the South Pacific in the Cook Islands and Vanuatu.
Since the above description is quite complete, you may wonder why "offshore" is sometimes regarded as "sleazy" or undesirable. The truth is that neither your local banks nor your government want you to know about offshore instruments and the advantages they provide. They don't want you putting your money somewhere else. If you do, the local banks will lose your business, and the government will lose track of what you're up to. It's that simple. They believe you owe them, and they don't like it if you take your business somewhere else!
If you do repatriate your assets in the future, the government will certainly want its share at that time, but they don't want to wait in case you never repatriate them - which is quite possible. The government wants your money now. Credit bureaus want to know all about your financial transactions, so they can sell information about your finances to others - and any other personal data that they have on you. In other words, your financial affairs hold a lot of important information for those in power. If you make your affairs private - because you have instigated an offshore strategy, then this type of personal information will no longer be available.
This is the reason you won't see any advertising about the advantages of structuring yourself offshore. In many countries it is forbidden to advertise the existence of offshore investment funds - even though they perform far better than the ones you normally have access to. Why? Same reason, they don't want your money to disappear - and they don't want to lose out on financial information about you.
The word "offshore" has often been linked to crime. This is a deliberate strategy of government and other vested interests. Sure, some criminals may bank their ill-gotten gains in an offshore account - but that doesn't negate the benefit of being offshore as a law-abiding citizen. And what they forget to tell you is that many offshore banks have quite stringent controls on who banks with them - and have their own reputation to protect. It's not in any bank's interest to be known as a haven for criminals.
Why would you want to go offshore? Well, it can be a means to legally decrease your tax burden. You may be able to defer, reduce and even eliminate taxes by following a carefully thought out strategy. You may want to do it for retirement planning - in this way your nest-egg will grow without being continually "trimmed" back by various withholding taxes. The power of compound interest works much better when you're not getting tax deductions!
You may want to go offshore to protect your assets from forfeiture, litigation or even a particularly vindictive ex-spouse. Maybe you just have no faith in your domestic banks or currency (and why should you?). And one of the greatest advantages of being offshore is the privacy it affords you. No one else need ever know that you have money somewhere else. And unless you tell people, your privacy is complete - because the banks in offshore jurisdictions have strict secrecy laws and will not disclose any information about a client.
Offshore can provide security, privacy, and profit. How many more good reasons do you want?

How Your Money Can Grow, Given a Chance Albert Einstein was onced asked "What is the greatest power in the universe?" He answered "The power of compound interest". To show how that can work, it is said that when Christ was born he wanted to help his parents pay for the stable, so he borrowed $1.00 @ 1% compound interest. It was due to be repaid on January 1 2000, it amounted to Thirty Eight Septillion dollars, that is; A lot of money Huh? $1.00 @ 1% Simple interest would have been about $6.000.00 If you invest $1000 for five years at 10% interest - the compounded net result will be $1645. And if your government takes a 20% withholding tax on the interest earned each month - then the same $1000 will end up being only $1490. This may not look that bad on just $1000, but how does it impact on a larger amount? Let's say your investment is $50,000 - earning the same 10% interest rate. Left untaxed, your investment will grow to $82,265 in five years. If the interest is taxed 20% at source, then the same $50,000 will end up being $74,492. Now, this time we put the same $50,000 into a high performing offshore investment, returning 36% (we have contacts for two such investment options in the Club). After 5 years your $50,000 would have grown into the tidy sum of $294,580 - nearly six times the original investment, and $220,088 more than the same amount growing much slower onshore! Here's the interesting thing. Even if it were possible to get 36% onshore, by the time your investment had been taxed along the way, your final payout would be $207,476 - a difference of $87,104 lost in taxes, which is a far greater amount than your original investment! "Thirty-six percent!" I hear you say. Yes, that's right. It is quite realistic and achieveable. We even have the contacts who can show you where you can earn two and even three times that amount. Of course there is higher risk with higher returns - but we also know of a bank paying 15% on deposit! |

Use an IBC for Profit, Privacy and Protection
Portfolio Management
Holding equity shares in an offshore company in a jurisdiction where there are no taxes on the company, no reporting, where shareholders may be nominees and management can be provided through Power of Attorney offers many advantages. With communication facilities being what they are today and the ability to trade immediately from just about any point on the Globe, the IBC has become a major tool where efforts to minimize taxes and to maintain confidentiality are important.
Trading Companies
Depending upon the jurisdictions involved in a trade or in trading, a jurisdiction can be selected where taxes can be minimized or completely eliminated. The existence of the VAT, the intrusion of the EU, withholding provisions, reporting requirements, licensing demands, etc., will dictate the jurisdictions. Generally, however, trade between the developed economies and just about any jurisdiction can be conducted through an IBC with great advantage.
Intellectual Property
The simple holding of Intellectual Property in an IBC can account for significant profit increase, tax savings and minimization of reporting and regulatory compliance.
Holding Title to Land, Improved Property, and Other Physical Assets
Precious Metals, Land, Improved Property, Valuable Collections, Shares of Beneficial Interest can be held by an offshore company. This will facilitate transfer of ownership and translation of ownership to heirs if the trust is not in use. Look at the Features of an IBC and see how they apply to you and your financial planning approach. It is always good to consult with professionals in your home jurisdictions. Unfortunately, the so called professionals are limited in their scope of understanding of offshore business or the need to look offshore for solutions.
Inter-Company Finances, Borrowing and Lending, Leasing
An offshore company holding title to machinery and equipment can lease the same to a company in your jurisdiction, where profits for the operation are maintained offshore, unreported and untaxed.
A loan and interest from an offshore company can be collected from a company in your jurisdiction. The earnings can remain offshore.
Ship/Boat Owning & Shipping Co. Operation
Register your ship or boat abroad for minimum tax and liability. Operation costs are minimized when using personnel from developing countries. There are other benefits that accrue. Such benefits become obvious as you review the laws and regulations related to vessel registration in different offshore jurisdictions and the Companies Act and its ramifications for offshore operations.
Consultancies & Personal Service Companies
Setting up your consultant service in an offshore jurisdiction will enhance your visibility and increase your earning potential by minimizing taxes and operating expenses.
Personnel Companies/Personnel Management
If you are operating offshore, or have set up offshore you can provide services worldwide, allowing income to be reported from an offshore company. The ease of operation, minimal accounting and retention of earnings can all work toward maximizing income. The individual is in actuality an employee of the offshore company.
Employment for Offshore Contracts
If you or your company have an offshore contract and must hire people to fulfill the details of the agreement, then it might pay to retain the employees or consultants where there is minimal, or no need for, payroll taxes, insurance, etc. The employee might benefit also from earning offshore.
The IBC Can be of Measurable Value
A good and proper use of an IBC is to serve as Trustee for an offshore trust. Properly structured and through careful use of Power to act for the company, clients can remain in virtual control of the assets while confidentiality, asset protection and tax benefits remain in place.
Selecting a Jurisdiction For Your Company And Your Trust is Important
Assuming that an offshore account is part of a well thought out part of your estate planning, we are happy to make some suggestions. We ask that you keep in mind that we do not provide advice on tax planning and investment advisory services. We are specifically a service company which works with other professionals to administer offshore investments and provide assistance in establishing trusts and International Business Companies in various jurisdictions around the world.

Say Goodbye To Government Interference, Taxes or Coercion
PT The Theory - by WG Hill
Do you want to escape the control over your life and property now held by modern Big Brother Government? Become a PT and you can break free.
In a nutshell, a PT merely arranges his or her paperwork in such a way that all governments consider him a tourist - a person who is just Passing Through. Government officials look at PTs and consider them to be people who are merely Parked Temporarily. Unlike most citizens or subjects, PTs are not then subject to taxes, military service or lawsuits. Nor are they persecuted for holding outlandish beliefs or pursuing exotic activities.
PT stands for many things. Prior Taxpayer, Perpetual Tourist, Permanent Traveler... PT is a concept and a way of life. The PT theory is simple and elegant. It does not require accountants, attorneys, or complex offshore arrangements. Why let authorities dominate every aspect of your life from cradle to grave? PTs can Protect Themselves. Join this select group of freethinkers and eliminate middle men forever.
Untaxed Wealth Without Limit
At last you can discover the joys of working. Yes. That's right. Find out how you can be paid in full without being subject to the excessive taxation you face now. Remember, it's your money. You should be able to spend it how you want.
Many nations pretend to encourage freedom of movement. In practice, however, every government limits travel severely with passport, visa and other restrictions. Countries impose restrictions and others feel pressured into implementing similar or harsher measures. As a PT you will be able to come and go as you please.
Disappear From All Computer And Information Banks
People of intelligence and wealth associate themselves with different countries for different reasons. In PT, you can learn about Dr Hill's Five Flag Theory. Discover why no one with common sense gives all their assets or allegiance to any one flag. The Five Flag Theory will help you conduct all your PT business safely and effectively.
Flag 1: Business Base
These are places where you make your money. They must be different from your personal fiscal domicile, the place where you legally reside.
Flag 2: Passport & Citizenship
These should be from a country unconcerned about offshore citizens and what they do outside its borders.
Flag 3: Domicile
This should be a tax haven with good communications. A place where wealthy, productive people can be creative, live, relax, prosper and enjoy themselves. Such a place should not be threatened by war or revolution and preferably should enjoy good levels of banking secrecy.
Flag 4: Asset Repository
This should be a place from which assets, securities and business affairs can be managed anonymously by proxy.
Flag 5: Playgrounds
These are places where you would actually physically spend your time.
PT shows you which countries are most suitable for your needs. Remember the world has a lot to offer if you have the right information at your fingertips. With PT you can finally have the key to untold wealth and freedom.
WG Hill's Book "PT" cannot be bought at your local book shop - but, as a member of CSI International, we can get it for you.
