  3. Which island is the tax free island you live at again metooxx?

    So I can rent from 1400.00-2500.00 per month and speak English.

    I am married and I can make up to 250k on my trading...and use my offshore company to establish my work permit right?

    How about medical care concerns for my wife?.....do you go to the mainland?

  8. also it's not how much you make it's how much you keep. the u.s., state and local govts rip me off every which way they can. capital gains tax to the fed, capital gains to the state and yes even capital gains to the city/locality. oh yeah my property taxes are > 5k/ yr and climbing. this country is squeezing tax payers so hard i am really getting pissed and none of the lawmakers seem to give a hoot. even if they pass a fed tax cut, e.g. on dividends, the state and localities are hiking to offset. the have nots get the same 1 vote per person as the haves, and congressmen pander to all voters not just the ones with money. taxes aside, the quality of life in the u.s has deteriorated substantially, esp. in heavily populated areas. people are edgy, mean, roads are always jammed, boom-boxes pound away at your sanity. personally, you can have it. it's all going down the shitter anyway.

  10. Well making it is the same......but sharing it with my partner the IRS is the temptation I am contemplating to change.

    I feel this way every year at about this time.......
