    UK Non Dom List

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_with_non-domiciled_status_in_the_UK Interesting list I thought the members might be interested in. Just one of many ways that organised people legally minimise their taxation. Of course this is just the notable UK Non Doms, there are lots of others...

    Tourism

    I'm interested in the members' thoughts on the future of tourism. I've read lots about how the rising middle class in Asia means great things for tourism in the South East Asian region. On the flip side, I've read about how the "eco conscious" West will begin to view air travel as polluting and...

    Non-resident SMSF

    Does anyone have advice on managing a SMSF while residing overseas? For those who don't know, if you are becoming a non-resident, your SMSF can be taxed on 46.5% of income and assets. As far as I understand it, there are two options: - Visit Australia for more than 28 days every 2 years; or -...

    Asset Accumulation Phase

    I've read NR's writings and to be honest know little about companies/trusts etc. During the Asset Accumulation Phase of one's lifetime, would it make sense to register a company in a no or low tax country and buy assets in that companies' name? As far as I see it, if early retirement is your...

    Do you do your own tax?

    Interested to hear from members as to whether or not they pay someone to do their tax for them or do it themselves? I've had nothing but bad luck trying to pay someone to do the job, but always dread doing the paperwork myself.

    Keeping the Powder Dry

    Those who are aiming to keep liquidity in a volatile market/economy, what if your plan to keep your powder dry. I know some are saving for a house - that's a lot of cash to have sitting in a bank that may well be "bailed-in". Obviously the (MSP) mattress savings plan will only work with...

    Economies: Your Pick

    We all have our opinions on how this game is going to play out. Some hyperinflation, some deflation, some total SHTF, some recession and so on. That said, where do you think is going to be least affected? We have seen lists of countries' debt ranked in order of the amount per capita or per...

    The Great Mint Swindle

    Deferring/Offsetting Capital Gains

    We will likely be selling a property in a few months for a reasonable sum more than what we paid for it. It was vacant land that we never lived on. We would like to use the gain to further invest (not in real estate), but I'm not sure how I can use this to reduce our CGT liability. Anyone have...

    Index Tracker Funds

    I am basically a complete rookie when it comes to the stock market, but I have began to realise just how much I should begin to diversify. Few of my assets generate income, and any cash in the bank is losing value over time. I have read a lot about index tracker funds (eg Vanguard in Australia)...
