Partly, this is about saving big on taxes.
But that's not at all the whole story. Consider two people, Fred and Mary. Both of them take back the money that they might otherwise have surrendered to the Feds on April 15th, and so hand themselves a net pay raise of 25% to 33%. But Mary goes one further: she learns and implements some neat techniques - also hidden from view by the government propaganda machine - for making more money as well.
See how it works out, supposing (realistically, as I can show) that:
But after ten years, Fred has accumulated a respectable $273,859 while Mary has amassed a huge $7,566,800. Quite a difference! - she did 27 times better than Fred.
To read this as anything more than a hypothetical story, I know - you'll need convincing on two counts: (a) that Fred, Mary and you can safely avoid the payment of income tax and (b) that those offshore investment vehicles that yield 5% a month do actually exist.
Okay, I'll make a start.
Politicians and jurists all vigorously conspire to enforce it anyway, so in order not to pay, we have to beat them at their own game and I know no better guide in that than Irwin Schiff. Visit his Web page here, listen to his daily broadcasts either on the Net through that page or on Short Wave (9.475), buy his books and tapes and get to work.
I chose the Schiff method from four alternatives presented by Investors International (see below) and can confirm that it works fine. His scholarship is deep and sound, his sense of what works in practice is well-honed. The total cost will not exceed a few hundred dollars and the saving will be huge (like the $12,000/yr recovered by Fred and Mary, above.)
An oft-heard criticism of Schiff is that he did jail time for his findings, and that is true but 100% irrelevant; it proves we are battling a bunch of criminals but it proves nothing else. That's because the procedures he provides today do not even resemble those he used in the early 80s, because he made all the errors of practice so that we need not, and because in six years nobody following his current procedures has even been prosecuted, let alone convicted. Further, he is without doubt #1 on the IRS' Hit List, yet has not even been arrested in all those six years for interfering with the collection of a lawful tax! - if the government could convict anyone, they would certainly try to convict Irwin Schiff. They haven't, because they can't. He has them over a barrel. You and I are the beneficiaries.
IIP's course is soundly based on free-market beliefs, its cost will be recovered by tax savings well within the first year, and it provides two key benefits:
(1) Presentations by several experts in the field of legal tax avoidance - including Irwin Schiff but not limited to him. One has basically the same reading of the Law as Schiff has, but offers an alternative support service (insulating his client from the IRS.) Another has a different reading of how we have been hornswaggled; less sound in my opinion, but nonetheless the procedure works, in that the IRS has written several practitioners to confirm that they have no tax liability. And a fourth group of methods uses offshore techniques to "play the IRS' game" just they way they prefer, yet zapping nearly all traditional tax "liability" with no challenge at all to the IRS' masculinity.
The effect is that the IIP student can shop around, question the experts in person, choose the method that seems best to suit his preference and circumstances. Remarkably, it's like a "bazaar" of legal tax-avoidance and the extra cost, over just doing as "Fred" did, is well justified by the fact that this is a major once-in-a-lifetime decision and the maker should be as comfortable with it as possible. And for almost everyone, the cost is recovered in only a few months anyway.
(2) Introduction to several other mind-blowing, money-making financial strategies including the high-yield investments that "Fred" used, above.
As well as lying to us all systematically about the fact that payment of income tax is voluntary, not compelled by Law, the government has also lied to us about why offshore investment vehicles cannot be sold in the US. The claim is that SEC approval is needed to ensure our "safety". Hog wash! The real reason is that the Feds do not wish us to hear about those yielding 5% a month so that we will continue lending our money to them, at 5% a year.
The IIP seminars take place offshore, physically outside US government jurisdiction, and so that restraint is removed. Just as with the subject of tax avoidance, they bring in world-class guest speakers on the subject of investments - and the prerequisite subjects of privacy and asset protection, all using offshore techniques. Since I'm publishing this page on-shore, I'm going to reveal nothing about these vehicles. The SEC might get on my back if I did. So if you want to hear where to find them - if you want to emulate Mary, and make a multi-million dollar fortune in the next few years instead of a few hundred thousand, attend the IIP seminar.
Visit their Web site first, but to check out that subject, please contact me and I'll show you all you need to know, without obligation.
One more reason to do that: suppose you've managed to make a bunch of money but are not inclined to avoid payment of tax and don't expect to have enough time left to build an even larger fortune and then enjoy its fruits. Still, attending the IIP seminar will show you how to protect those assets you built up, from the death-taxers and any other litigous malefactors. Your accountant may have told you about trusts, and they are good to a point, but he almost certainly did not tell you about offshore trusts, which do the same only much more so. That's because he, too, learned his trade in a government- approved school. Like nearly everyone else, he believes what we are taught, by the Conditioners.
