Many Americans have experienced at least one indoor tanning session in last ten years. It is said that more than 10 percent of American population will visit an indoor salon facility. On other hand, women hold supremacy of ownership. Surveys point out that more than 50 percent of indoor salons have female ownership. Neither age of tanners nor nationality is an obstacle for Americans and Canadians. Now, 70 percent of all indoor tanners are over 25 years old. It is no longer a taboo. A lot of people want to cure themselves (from psoriasis, for instance) and to be fit.

Presently there are 25,000 Professional Indoor Tanning Facility Businesses and also 160,000 employees in this industry. The number of clients is encouraging, too: 28 millions. As a matter of fact, a professional indoor tanning salon is operating in almost every town of USA. There have been reports saying that Hispanic and Afro-American groups share trend and their number is rising.

The legendary investor, Jim Rogers, writing in Foreword to “Financial Reckoning Day”, by Bill Bonner and Addison Wiggin, had this to say:

“In America, if you have a job, you pay taxes. If you save some money, you pay taxes on interest. If you buy a stock and get paid a dividend, you pay taxes. If you have a capital gain, you pay taxes again. And when you die, your estate pays taxes. If you live long enough to get social security, they tax your social security income. Remember: you paid taxes on all this money when you earned it originally and yet they tax it again and again”.

Now wouldn’t it just be nice to avoid all of that?

Because it’s simplest thing on earth, particularly if your earnings are being generated in that weird nether land called cyberspace, to use a set of perfectly legal arrangements to process your money FREE OF TAX.

In other words, you set yourself up a company, a bank account, and a business address somewhere no predatory taxman stalks! That is, OFFSHORE. There are quite a large number of these jurisdictions, and there is not a single Fortune 500 company that doesn’t use them. I kinda think that tells you a lot.

Once it’s all in place it works just like any other company arrangement – you just don’t pay any tax!

Now no-one’s suggesting that it costs nothing to set up these arrangements, and it’s true it’s not going to figure high in your priorities if you’ve got a marketing budget of $10 and are wondering how to pay rent. But, assuming that you’re already generating even reasonable income, it just has to make sense to look into this.

After all, even if you’re not interested in saving yourself a whole lot of money, there’s another reason you might wish to avoid all of this. I’ll leave you with another quote, this time from Charles Adams, in “For Good And Evil: The Impact Of Taxes On Modern Civilisation”:

“Tax haven ‘refugees’ report that they are tired of fighting taxman. They have had enough of audits, year in and year out, of having their banking and accounting records picked over and questioned. They are tired of having their privacy totally destroyed by inquisitional tax agents. They are tired of appeals, big fees for tax professionals, and endless tax litigation. Many complain that soak-the-rich philosophy of their homelands was not as intolerable as harassment and scorn they receive from revenue bureaucrats”.

Personally, I can relate to that…
