  • Why Gold Bullion and Gold Shares Diverge

    Q: Why do price and wave pattern often diverge between gold bullion and gold shares? A: Different market participants trade in the gold bullion verses the shares.

  • Offshore asset protection structures that work

    Opinion has nothing to do with what we are about or why our offshore asset protection structure works.

    The tax system is generally hostile to foreign trusts. The hostility is understandable– trusts interfere with the government’s ability to impose or collect tax. As a result, the laws are slanted against foreign trusts. Income is taxed punitively. The right paperwork must be prepared “just so” and filed on time, or massive penalties can result.…
