5 Ways to Escape the Nanny State

5 Ways to Escape the Nanny State By Diana Gordon Dear Sovereign Investor, The Titanic and Lusitania are two famous ocean liners that both slipped beneath the seas nearly a century ago. A study published by the National Academy of Sciences explains... the amount of time it takes a ship to sink directly influences passengers' behavior. Check this out... In the case of the Titanic, which sank in 2 hours and 40 minutes, passengers remained calm until it was too late. The Lusitania, however, sank in a mere 18 minutes. And the reaction was far different: blind terror – every man for himself! What does this have to do with growing and protecting your wealth? Well... America has sprung a leak. And the USS America's "passengers" can be divided into three groups: 1) Those who have no clue what's going on. 2) Those who sense something is wrong – but are not sure what to do. 3) Those who know something is wrong – and are taking bold steps to do something about it. Who do you think stands the best chance to survive and prosper through the challenging months ahead? It's a no-brainer! This week, I've been hanging out in Mexico with Group #3... nearly 400 Sovereign Individuals who've manned the lifeboats and retreated to the beautiful Sheraton Hacienda del Mar Golf & Spa Resort. And it's a shame you couldn't be here. But since you're reading this message, I know you're here in spirit... and will find the offshore asset protection and tax secrets Mark Nestmann shared with the group incredibly valuable. So what exactly did Mark say? First and foremost - 100% compliance is key. Mark also shared: • The three most important forms you MUST file to remain compliant. • The HUGE risk of buying grey market passports. Fair warning: If you see a passport for sale – buyer beware! • Five ways to legally save on taxes by going offshore. • What you need to know on the eight most popular safe-havens including Panama, Hong Kong and Lichtenstein to name a few. • Five ciritcal questions you must have answered before moving abroad. • How to pick your "just in case" home for second citizenship. First, talk to boots-on-the ground people, lawyers, bankers and even expats. • Beware of little-known Panamanian "tax traps"… if you own mutual funds and are a U.S. citizen, you need to know this. • Why having only a U.S. passport is dangerous to your privacy. Are the Feds tracking your every move? You'll need to grab a copy of the 2012 Escape From America kit to find out. • What you need to know about the dreaded Exit Tax and how to minimize what you owe to the bone. • If you own a U.S. residence, there's one important move you'll need to make before expatriating. Plus, Mark debunked the five biggest myths about expatriation… Advertisement 'What?? I can get ALL THAT for just $5.96?' It's true... For the next few days ONLY, you can listen in on our Total Wealth Symposium – an $895 value – for just $149. (That works out to a measly $5.96 per speaker!) You can also enjoy... Wall-to-wall audio coverage from Cabo... 25+ hours in total (available in a few short weeks)… EVERY PowerPoint slide, handout and recommendation from our panel of experts.

Moving right along… We learned about La Estancia De Cafayate - a colonial village that rises quietly in the foothills of the Andes Mountains in Argentina. Leslie Campbell revealed details on this beautiful safe haven every Sovereign Individual should consider. It's situated among some of the world's finest vineyards, an 18-hole golf course, endless hiking and riding trails and a spa & fitness center. Of course, this is just a small sample of what we heard about on Saturday. But one common theme we've heard throughout the week is that there will always be "fiat money fraud," identity thieves, frivolous lawsuits and spend-a-holic politicians to make life... well... "interesting." But with the knowledge unfurled at the Total Wealth Symposium, it's safe to say that these threats don't stand a chance. To make sure you get your own copy of every speech ... every play ... and every solution, at an 85% discount, click here. I'm not sure if you've grabbed your copy yet. But what I do know is, if you pass this up, you'll never get to hear what we heard this past week... • Why you must report all offshore accounts with a total value of $10,000 or more... even if they only contain precious metals or non-cash assets. Even if they generate no income. • The biggest mistake most new emerging market traders make... and how to ensure you never fall for this "money trap." • The six documents you MUST bring to apply for residency in Panama: A valid passport... police record... marriage certificate... birth certificate... six photographs... and a recent certificate of health. • The top three gold coins to own: Canadian Maple Leafs, Australian Kruggerands and Austrian Philharmonics. • Are American Eagle coins a good investment? The answer may surprise you... And that's just for starters! I'll be back with a final update this afternoon. Until then... Your Conference Insider, Diana Gordon P.S. I could spend the next month reporting everything I learned at the Total Wealth Symposium. But that wouldn't be fair to those who did attend.
