    Gold Smuggling

    I see that some gold dealers in Asia sell bullion necklaces etc. This might be a method of transporting gold internationally. Has anyone here given thought to this. Wear five pounds of gold though customs. This sounds silly but it might be a viable method for some. Any comments on this?

    Is there a better gold company (buy and store) in Singapore? Any names? Would it be cheaper to buy gold and store it yourself in a bank deposit box there?

    Crypto assets reporting in CRS - coming soon

    I see a future where one might have a ton of money in bitcoin but unable to buy a house or a car without taking a huge tax hit. This is where the governments will step in and tax it. There is not value in stored wealth if you are not going to enjoy it someday.

    Offshore Bank Account Across the World

    Is the term "offshore bank" not obsolete? With CRS and other reporting standards it seems banks in places like the Philippines and Cambodia should be called offshore banks.
