Is it possible to buy gold in big amounts (over $100k) and store it without proof of source of funds being asked? Which jurisdictions?

My home country has unclear definitions regarding what is considered to have 'ties' for tax matters. Therefore, I wonder if there is any way to shield myself by investing in stocks through a company from a jurisdiction that doesn't tax this type of income. That is, can individual tax residence...

Does anyone know if tax returns generally are accepted as SoF? I have never been asked for a tax return by the bank but I wonder if using a tax return would be enough for the purpose of SoF? The reason I ask is because it is much easier for me to prove crypto gains through my tax returns than...

I bought my coins on Binance with KYC and I have a strong urge to use Monero in order to achieve high privacy. I value my financial privacy but I also read that people have problems later with AML procedures in the future. Is there a solution where one can use Monero to achieve high privacy...

I have seen a lot of talk about using darks but no one is really mentioning the risks. What are the real risks of using darks? - Being charged with bank fraud? - Being charged with money laundering? - Getting attention from the government and now being a national threat to the state if they...

I want to start by saying that I am really trying to do everything legal but I also value my privacy. The point here is not to evade taxes but to take advantage of the possibility of better privacy. Belarus has been discussed in another thread regarding investing. But, I wanted to bring Belarus...

I mentioned this in another thread so I thought about creating a new one. I see a lot of examples of structures where the only benefit is achieving lower tax. But, there is also a 'substance over form' law in many countries. How can it be legal to structure companies in these ways? For...

How easy is it to benefit from the fact that your country does not have CFC rules? Is it as easy as just registering any company abroad and never take out capital from that company?

Hello everybody! I'm new to the Mentor Group Gold. I do not find the information by using the search service. Is it really possible these days to create offshore structures that completely make your holdings anonymous? What are the expected costs for a really good structure? How much is it...

Read on the forum that some guys here do not advice transacting in USD outside of the US as it raises red flag. Has anyone had issues transacting in USD to Swissquote (6 figures)?

A lawyer told me that it is very hard to prove physical presence within the EU as there are no borders and in order to get accepted for status of 'Habitual abode' other circumstances are looked at, as of job etc. Does anyone of you know if this is true or went through the process of proving...

I have been reading the tax treaties with Germany and it seems like where you have a 'permanent home' is very important when it comes to the tie-breaker rules and physical presence, not so much. Also, you are deemed to be a German tax resident by simply having an address or an available room...

Just wanna add to the recent complaints I have seen from others here. Wise deactivated my account without a reason. Stay away.

Hello everybody! Im in a difficult situation and need to find a new country to have a permanent address in and preferably not pay any capital gains tax on my investments from now on. My situation: I made some errors on my investment accounts in Sweden and instead of paying a version of low...
