I am President of Asset Protection Group, Inc. Our goal is to show ordinary people how to protect their assets from lawyers, lawsuits, and snooping from the Federal Government. The rich and famous have been doing this for years (centuries?) carefully building their financial lives so that no one acts on their behalf. Our company doesn’t invent or invent anything new, we just simplify this strategy and make it available to people who may not be rich and famous.
The key to any asset protection strategy is financial privacy. As a Federal Judge once told me, “If I can find assets, I can seize them.” Federal Judges are smart, tough, appointed for life, they cannot be prosecuted, and their orders are carried out by the Federal Marshal and the Marine Corps, if necessary. Their job is to enforce Federal Laws that supersede any state law, they are proud employees of the Federal Government, and they work for pride and prestige. They do not receive bonuses, stock options, promotions, limited stock, or gold parachutes. They’re not in it for the money, they’re in it for the power and unfettered ability to inflict pain, seize assets without due process, and imprison anyone who challenges them by holding them in contempt. We advise our clients not to confront, persuade, argue or seek justice from any Federal Judge. We are outnumbered, banned, their resources are unlimited, and if you ‘win’ they will appeal. It’s not a fair fight and the little guy never stands a chance. Our only hope is to play defensively. Squat behind hedges, build tunnels like Cu Chi, use electronic wire transfers, user IDs and passwords, pay your taxes in earnest (don’t give them targets!), and keep your head down.
W. and The Shooter eavesdropped on our phone calls and emails without a court order. They tortured ‘prisoners’ (not prisoners) at Gitmo. No, I mean real torture. . . they got 80s music into their heads so they couldn’t sleep. Talk about ‘cruel and unusual’. If you deposit or withdraw more than $10,000 in cash, money order, or cashier’s cheque, the bank (or any financial institution) will file a Treasury Statement with you with the Treasury. If you want to avoid a Report by depositing $5,000 on Monday and $5,000 on Tuesday, that is a Federal Crime called ‘arranging’. This is a crime. All financial institutions are required to file a ‘Suspicious Activity Report’ with the Ministry of Finance on one of their customers. For the definition of ‘suspicious’ I suggest you contact The Shooter. He was hiding somewhere in a circle of Michael Jackson-style SUVs on the Teton Village side of Jackson Hole. Remember, these are the same people who promote the idea of fingerprinting every ‘foreigner’ that enters the country. What is a foreigner?
We offer Nevada companies and International Business Companies to provide our clients with privacy. There are lawyers and other promoters who offer alternative products. If you think the entity they are selling will give you more privacy. . . use them. There is a lot of misinformation on the Internet about our company and asset protection in general. I’m not interested in getting involved in a shin-kicking contest with a bunch of bloggers who don’t work with too much time on their hands. Suffice to say, we have been selling the company for 13 years and they are working. I learned about this business from financial planners, accountants, and financial managers in Southern California who specialize in managing the assets of wealthy Hollywood celebrities.
Nevada, with only 2.5 million people, sells nearly 8,000 companies a month making it the nation’s capital city. Mob announced the Nevada Company Code in the 1970s when they owned and operated Las Vegas. They want to make sure no one can identify the owner of the company that runs the casino. They wanted to create a corporate entity where one person could fill all company positions – President, Secretary, Treasurer, Director – and this person didn’t have to live or reside in Nevada. They removed all state personal and corporate taxes to ensure the Secretary of State would never ask any questions about the owners or operators of these companies. They want their involvement with these companies and casinos to be invisible. They want their company to be private. That’s why our headquarters is in Las Vegas. We are not here for natural beauty.
The Mob boys are gone now (no more free drinks). In the 1990s, Wall Street came to town and bought everything. Every casino on the Strip is now owned by a public company listed on the Exchange. But the company code they created remains intact. Nevada allows nominee officers and directors, no state taxes, and the Secretary of State does not solicit or collect any information about the owners of any company.
As for the Offshore business, we formed an International Business Company in the Commonwealth of the Bahamas and brought it to the Cayman Islands and opened a stockbroker, corporate, insured account of up to $20 million per account with Lloyds of London. Money moves only by wire transfer. Our company partners with CPA firms to help our clients report their overseas income both legally and discreetly without ever revealing their name or Social Security number. A Federal Judge cannot take what he cannot see. A Federal Judge has no jurisdiction outside the borders of the United States. Bill Gates has offshore accounts in 117 different countries. Most of our clients only need one.
Your cash, bank accounts, business or assets may be confiscated by a Federal Judge without notice, due process, right to counsel, or your day in court. Hamilton and Jefferson would roll in their graves if they could see what W. and The Shooter have done to our fundamental freedoms. Blowing up his friend’s face is a metaphor for what The Shooter has done to the Bill of Rights.
We have more lawyers and lawsuits per capita than any other country in the world. Ninety percent of all lawsuits are filed in the United States. If you have any moral remorse about protecting (hiding) your assets, as a former collection attorney, I can assure you that I have never met a lawyer with the slightest compassion come collection time.
So move. Implementing any asset protection strategy is easy and effective, but it must be done in a timely manner. . . long before you have any legal problems. Nothing is perfect, nothing is 100%, but your options are limited. You can do nothing and leave your assets exposed to wolves or you can melt into the anonymity of financial privacy.
