The
Dominican Republic
To The Rescue: .  . American and European middle class
citizens are currently struggling with higher costs of living, higher
taxes and inflation, but the Dominican
Republic has in essence come to the rescue.
...The
Dominican Republic Congress has recently passed some new legislation in
June 2007 that
basically allows retirees or investors to benefit from 100 percent
Tax-Free Pension or Investment income, and you do not need to wait
until you are past the age of 50 to qualify either. At a time
when many people ask the questions: Is there a Better Place To Live?

What does Offshore Really Mean? If
you are like most people, you probably think it involves something
illegal or perhaps an idea only suitable for the super wealthy.
However, the fact is that offshore really means anything away or
outside of your own home country. But, the most common reference
that many people think of involves the so-called tax haven countries,
but the truth is, anywhere really can be a tax haven or a beneficial
place for you to live or invest. Did you know that in many
countries, bank account interest in tax-free
for local citizens and foreigners
alike?

| An
Offshore Company or Foundation for
Asset Protection, plus Tax benefits: For the past few
years, the news has been filled with stories about companies moving
manufacturering and jobs overseas. But, that is only part of the
story. Many domestic companies in the US and Europe have set up
companies in other more favorable, lower tax jurisdictions a long time
ago - and the current tax code often encourages it. So, if
they can do it, why not you? The truth is you can, and as small
businessman or average middle class investor - you probably
should. Find out why setting up a company abroad or private
foundation is not only for the large corporations or ultra-wealthy, and
the cost quite affordable as well. CLICK

A Second Passport or Second Citizenship: WHY YOU NEED ONE NOW, AND FAST . . . . . .
What
is Dual Citizenship and it is legal? What is the difference
between residency and citizenship? Why would someone want another
passport or citizenship? Will you loose your current citizenship
if you obtain another? We put together some information for you
in order
to answer these and many other related questions. The truth of
the matter is, it is not a question of should you - but rather why you
might need
dual citizenship
going forward. In a world of so-called globalization, maybe
individual citizens need to be global also.

Offshore Banking, Gold, Money, Inflation
and
Other Related Topics:
Money,
money, money - the favorite topic of many. Part of the problem is
not always how to make it, but rather - how to keep it.
Government always seem to want their share through higher and higher
taxes, and then of course we have the other thief known as devaluation
(inflation). How well prepared are you to protect yourself, and
what really is the State of The Union? Are things getting better
economically - or worse? Do you think taxes will be going up - or
down? Do you think you are currently prepared to weather any
storm
that might come calling in the future? We put together some
information for you to ponder, as well as an action plan to put into
place as well.

Too
many people like yourself are worried about the ability to retire at
any age, never mind early. The prospect of many state run pension
programs (social security) is that there is doubt about what the future
holds. You have to take care of yourself, and the good
news is that you can. But it may mean thinking about living
elsewhere
that allows you to do so with the savings or assets you already have.

They
say gold is the only true money. Better said, unlike fiat paper
money, the only true form of currency value that the politcians cannot
screw around with. Is something old, such as gold, new
again? Are the people that advocate gold instead of paper
currency off the wall, or right on target ? Well, if you study
history, we find out that problems with inflation of paper money is
nothing new. In fact, history is probably one of the best
economics teachers around - if you take heed.

A long time ago there was a popular
series called the Little Rascals or Our Gang. Well,
today we have some new rascals, and unfortunately, they are not
interested in racing Go-Karts or having fun. Instead, they
have an agenda that is, shall we say, a bit more serious and dark in
nature. Regardless, they are out there, and are still
misbehaving. Where is Miss Crabtree when you need her ?
