This aspect of the Millionaire's dilemma was well covered by Hill's controversial book, Sex Havens For Tax Fiends. Despite its
great popularity, this report was withdrawn from the publisher's list two years ago because of legal problems due to British censorship and
obscenity laws.
The fourth flag is the place Where The Millionaire Invests His Money -- These are countries and institutions where funds are placed under
management to get maximum, tax free returns, safety from lawsuits, government confiscation, wealth taxes and all the financial problems and other
risks.
This problem is solved
definitively in the newest 1997 Hill/Trevellian book, The Invisible Investor, subtitled, "Get Your Money Out of the Country Before Your Country
Gets the Money Out of You." Here we visit the "offshore" world and the service providers who swim in it. Cayman Islands, Panama, Bermuda, Bahamas
and other banking secrecy centers are explored.
The fifth and last flag is Where To Work, Earn Money And Have An Active Business -- For USA citizens, one of several recommended options is to
incorporate abroad, have your headquarters, administrative and billing done from abroad, but sell your products worldwide, still paying attention
to the important United States market. ." For readers who don't have quite enough money to retire completely, there is another new 1997 report
PTO: Portable Trades & Occupations.
The idea here is to describe several dozen ways that any person can earn "serious money" in a foreign country - even if without
any residence or work permit. These methods include promoting events, doing consulting work, giving seminars, public speaking and various
types of creative work, including writing and self-publishing. Hill should certainly know something about that!
DOES HILL EXIST?
There was a chap, introduced and billed as Hill. who used to appear at Scope's lectures in various wigs and disguises. He disappeared from the
scene many years ago. It was variously announced that the original Hill had died, retired or went low profile himself in the Far East.
The truth seems to be that there was a falling out with Scope and Hill just left.
Some Hill books released during the 1990's, are said not to bear his distinctive humor and cut-to-the-point style. Scope is mum on the subject of
what happen to the Original Hill, but they keep reissuing and selling more and more of his old titles. There are newly revised and expanded
versions appearing every year. All we know for sure is that the original Hill, if he ever existed, hasn't done a new book for ten years.
TREVELLIAN - WORTHY SUCCESSOR TO HILL?
Lately, Hill's one time editor and friend, Peter Trevellian has released under the Trevellian name, two new titles, PTO and Invisible Investor.
These reports complete the set and round out Hill's original plan: "To present a coherent philosophy for productive, successful people, together
with specific, highly detailed plans for achieving their goals."
In doing this, Scope, Hill and Trevellian have certainly found a profitable niche for themselves.
