I’ll have to keep it brief today… As I write, the sun isn’t yet up here in Porto but scores of your fellow readers who jetted in from across the U.S., Europe, and even Asia, are—and they’re keen to get going on day two of my Offshore Wealth Summit. Yesterday we covered how to create [...]
In the wake of Tuesday’s debate, Taylor Swift gave Kamala Harris her backing for president. Maybe that tells you everything you need to know. Either way, with a net worth of $1.3 billion, Swift probably isn’t too worried about the key issue the rest of us are… It’s the economy, stupid. Watching the candidates squabble [...]

In October, I’ll be in Porto, Portugal, for my annual Offshore Wealth Summit. One of the topics we’ll cover is filing taxes as an American offshore.

Unfortunately, Elvis Presley’s will wound up going through probate, and it took three years for the lawyers to work things out in court. Finally, mercifully, the court ruled that the estate should pass to his [...]
There’s a lot of things about 2020 many of us would like to forget. The pandemic takes the top spot… but Trump v. Biden comes a close second. And now here we are again with the rerun most nobody wanted. Maybe you have no horse in this race, but chances are, you do. And while [...]
