Andrew dives in on some of the common questions he receives about taxes. People are always wanting to reduce their taxes, but sometimes they're completely unwilling to change their current lifestyle to make that happen. How can you reduce your taxes without moving out of the country? Well, the short answer is you can't. At the end of the day, it boils down to what kind of freedoms you want and why you really want to reduce your taxes.

 

Key Takeaways:

Andrew's Editorial:

[2:10] Let's talk about taxes.

[4:00] Countries like Australia are ruling more in favor of the tax man.

[4:20] It's subjective as to whether or not you really did leave the country or if you're just avoiding tax.

[4:30] Even if you've left the country for more than 183 days a year, this doesn't always mean you're a taxable non-resident.

[6:45] How can I pay nearly zero tax like the big corporations do?

[7:50] Andrew does not recommend hiding your money from the government. Nothing good will come of that.

[12:10] How does Google, and other big companies, diversify?

[15:45] How do you save taxes without moving?

[17:35] Like California? Then you might like Chile.

[22:30] But I can't leave the US and I want to reduce my tax bill!

[23:10] So, why do you really want to pay less tax?

[25:10] Andrew has never been to Greece.

Andrew discusses why holding a mediocre passport may not be as bad as you might think. It is no secret that tax laws are only going to get stricter, so perhaps it's time to have other options where you're not forced to stay in one area for the rest of your life.

Mashable recently came out with an article titled, 11 ways Millennials can save money. In it, the author recommends Millennials wash their hair less frequently in order to save on shampoo costs. Andrew comments that the Millennial culture is a painful one, but that pain is being buried and it's only going to get worse. As an outsider peeking in, Andrew sees a culture were depriving yourself is cool and wants to warn others that it really, really isn't.

When people talk about asset protection, very rarely does a conversation come up on how a young person with not much wealth can protect their assets. Truth be told, asset protection is important to everyone, no matter how little you have. Andrew discusses what threats should a young person be aware of, and how to properly prepare based on those threats. The threat of government taking your money away is always a possibility, but how real is that to you? How real is it that you'd get sued? These are just some of the things you have to take into consideration.

 

Key Takeaways:

Andrew's Editorial:

[1:25] Let's talk about asset protection.

[2:20] How can the younger generation protect their assets?

[2:50] Andrew lists reasons why you'd want to protect your assets in the first place.

[4:40] There are ways the government can take your money, but you need to figure out what those real threats are.

[5:45] What are the issues you're currently facing? Write them down.

[7:40] Keep in mind, the more difficult you make things, the more difficult it'll be to access your money in the future.

[7:50] Some Bitcoin exchanges are being run like banks.

[8:20] You want to put together a plan that will not complicate things for you later down the line.

[13:30] Anyone can sue anyone in the U.S.

[14:25] You can still use an offshore company to protect yourself.

[17:35] Asset protection is important for everyone, but there are a lot of scammers out there.

[18:05] It boils down to: How are you able to access your money in a way where everyone else can't?

[18:40] Don't cut corners. Follow the law!

[20:35] Things are changing every single day. Strategies that worked a couple of years ago, might not work today.

[23:25] Also, figure out if you need all the stuff the lawyers are trying to push on you.

Listener Question:

[50:50] Many Chinese people are looking to move to the U.S.―why is that?

[53:10] If you don't know why you need a second passport, maybe you don't need one.

[53:15] The Chinese are looking for different things than what you or Andrew are looking for.

[55:40] Some people who move to the U.S. are in for a rude awakening.

[58:10] Andrew's listeners are looking to lower their tax bill. The Chinese? They're looking for something else.
