Just what I needed!.......2007-08-27

I purchased this for my undergraduate tax class. I haven't had much of a chance to use it yet but it came in excellent condition.

Very good book.......2007-08-24

This book helped me pass the REG section of the CPA Exam. I did not do well in taxation back in college, but this book helped me understand the reason why a certain tax code exists. This book explains concepts very well and rightfully justifies its title.

Book Description

Investing globally is one of the most successful ways to accomplish capital preservation and growth. In The Wealth Report, Adam Starchild reveals how you can create an ultimate global portfolio of investments to hedge against inflation, taxes, confiscations, market, fluctuations, currency devaluations, economic and political turmoil...

Starchild reveals the little-known investment secrets that he has been giving to his clients for the past few decades. His recommendations are not high-flying investment tips, but rather solid, conservative recommendations that over time will help build a healthy nest-egg for you.

You will learn how to build a secret stash of cash that:

*You can access at any time

*Is tax-free and seizure proof

*Pays competitive dividends and interest

*And has no government reporting requirements (even for Americans)

In fact, if you had put $ 10,000 each year into this investment or the last twenty years you would have $590,697 today!

*You will also discover:

*How to accumulate income tax-free

*Why offshore mutual funds should form a vital part of your global portfolio

*How to invest in gold, silver and platinum and the investor potential of these precious metals

*Why Switzerland should play an essential part in any global nest-egg strategy

*How and where to best form an offshore trust in order to provide tax and creditor protection for your investments

*How to invest tax-free in the United States

Everything you need to get yourself started on a global path to a secure fortune is in The Conservative Wealthbuilder. Starchild's techniques have been used by many of the world's wealthiest people for decades, including presidents, kings, Arab sheiks... And now for the first time they are available to you. They have been tested and proven over time. You will not find a safer, surer path to financial security than that mapped out for you in this unique work!

Diversity, diversify, diversify.......2002-05-26

The simple fact is that the sun always shines somewhere. When times are tough at home, there is some country where investment opportunity is best!

Wisdom, Humor and Intelligence..........2001-06-16

I find wisdom, humor, and so much intelligence here. I pass this book on to my husband and children so that they may gain from reading it.

Diversification is key.......2001-05-31

Diversification is key. Diversification ensures that when there are big swings and big hits in the U.S. market, a portfolio has some balance to it. For safety, look for markets that don't react the same way at the same time as your domesitc market does, and that should be offshore. The other main reason to invest offshore is opportunity. Opportunities abound in places like China, the Middle East, Africa and other third world nations that are shedding their third world status.

Imagine That!.......2001-05-27

Behavioral finance attempts to find factors beyond greed that motivate investors and so explain the irrational underpinnings of many market anomalies. humans can and do behave in very illogical ways. It is this occasional lack of logic in human thought processes that makes dealing with workers, customers and the competition so dynamic.

It is Adam Starchild's 25 years of writing on financial matters that can help you behave logically in the investment world, and protect yourself from the illogical behavior of others. The Consevative Wealthbuilder moves well beyond his discussions of techniques, into logical coverage of a broad range of investment thoughts. No wonder he has developed such a strong following amongst conservative trust companies and other financial institutions.

Customer Reviews:

Was good, now outdated.......2006-12-20

This was a good book in 2001, but it's now getting dated. Still you can get lots of good information from it. It's a big book and has lots and lots of detail if your style is to learn yourself. I've turned to my accountant because I don't want to be a walking knowlege base, but this book is really good.

My own little loophole manual.......2004-08-18

Thank you, Jeffrey Scheppner, for giving us a level playing field when it comes to taxes!

Every tax law, loophole, and trap is spelled out in easy to understand English--even for non-rocket-scientists like myself.

I get his manual every year, and have not missed or misused a loophole yet!

Why look for a Tax break? When there is No income tax.......2004-04-03

There is no law to make a person liable to pay income tax. No one has put forth the research and "know in your heart it's the truth" information like Irwin Schiff's - "The Federal Mafia"

I personally have not paid income tax in over 8 years. I received one letter from the IRS to which I replied and informed them that I did not pay taxes for the years in question because I am under no obligation to do so (I included other statements with knowledge I gained from this amazing book.) I have never heard from them again & I never have had an IRS agaent come to my house. Don't let the IRS use their scare tatics to steal your hard-earned money, illegally seize your propery, and bank accounts. Ignornance of the average American is what they prey upon. Get the knowledge to See The Light.

Mr Schiff's book will greatly change your opinions of our Government. (NOT THE BOOK THIS REVIEW IS WRITTEN UNDER)
I highly recommed all of Irwin Schiff's books. Extremely imformative / easy to follow / and above all undoubtely proves that there is No Income Tax.

The IRS - "The greatest organized crime outfit of all time."

Somewhat Helpful But Misses the More Important Point.......2003-10-06

A really good tax book would tell you how complicated and unfair the current system really is. It would tell you that the current system costs Americans hundreds of billions of dollars annually in man hours for compliance and makes a parasitic class of politicians, lobbyists, lawyers and tax accountants quite rich. It is no wonder that books like this don't tell you any of that then is it? Instead of jumping through all kinds of hoops and frantically arranging your affairs to suit the taxing authorities why don't we demand a simplified system that puts all of these leaches out of work and puts our wealth to work creating jobs that make working people better off?

A book like this may be useful under the current system, but, there is the danger that it will keep you so busy chasing deductions and exemptions that you will forget what the real problem is.

This is a good book...BUT there are better ones available.......2003-01-30

Being a CPA and attorney,I am a saavy financial person and read a lot of tax and financial books.

How To Pay Zero Tax has been out for quite a while and is actually one of the first tax planning books that I have read. It is fairly comprehensive and actually better than most of the tax planning books out there. However,there are two main problems with it though for the average reader.

First, it is literally much too much. It has over 600 pages and some of it isn't clear. Mr.Schnepper tries to be all things to all people, which doesn't really succeed. I guess a point in all directions is a circle. In fact, despite its length,some of the discussion on topics tends to be too brief.

The second problem that has been noted by other reviewers is that this book hasn't be kept up to date. I guess Mr. Schnepper is "resting on his laurals."

Let me be clear about this: it's not that I disliked this book. It is just that there are a number of other, more up to date and better written tax books that I would recommend instead such as Lower Your Taxes: BIG TIME by a Mr. Botkin.

Book Description

During his lifetime, Bing Crosby was one of the most loved entertainers of the twentieth century. He made his name as a singer with a distinctive and innovative style, which helped to transform the musical scene of the early thirties. Radio and films brought him national prominence, and then as his film career developed, he achieved world-wide renown through his portrayal of Father O'Malley and through the hilarious Road films he made with Bob Hope. This book details his life, almost on a daily basis, and, with the aid of many contemporary reviews, produces a fascinating account of one of the most important show business figures of the twentieth century. Through Bing and his interaction with most of the stars of the time, the history of show business can virtually be traced. A discography, a fact file and a large index, which picks up many other show biz icons, supplements what will be a indispensable reference book, not only for those interested in Crosby but anyone researching other stars of the period.

Customer Reviews:

Mr Casual? Think again!.......2004-02-28

What a book! For the casual history buff, it's a detailed look at America (and much of the world) from 1903 to 1977. You cannot read this book and think that Bing was 'lazy' or 'sloppy' or 'lucky' - he worked hard, he planned, he gave generously of his time and talents to the world during some of its darkest days. This is a perfect book to purchase and donate to a school or a library if you're able to - a valuable resource, well written and meticulously researched!

Wow! A treasure trove.......2003-07-05

Yes, this book carries a hefty price tag and its paltry number of illustrations grates a bit on the nerves. But the content within the covers is absolutely amazing. Any serious fan of Bing will beg, borrow or possibly steal this tome because it's fasincating and detailed.

Do you want to know where Bing was or what he was doing on May 12, 1941? Easy, just flip to the entry for that date. The littlest bit of trivia is included and it makes for sometimes amusing reading. Bing caught four fish on this date in 1956, he played 36 holes of golf at the Bel Air Country Club on this date in 1942... it's all here. It's incredible to realize how multi-faceted Bing was and what a full life he led, truly something to be envied.

Rounding out the book is a complete discography and an index which is complete and easy to follow. This is a "must have" for anyone seriously interested in the career of this laid-back, phlegmatic legend. I highly recommend this beautiful volume.

THE definitive reference guide to the life & times of Bing!.......2002-01-19

Without a doubt, this is the most comprehensive look at Bing Crosby's activities, literally on a "day by day" basis from his birth in 1903 to his death in 1977, that has ever been published. Malcolm Macfarlane, in what obviously was a labor of love, has painstakingly uncovered every bit of information on Bing's life that he could find. His attention to detail is
impeccable.

To enhance the coverage of Bing's films, radio/TV, and stage performances, Malcolm utilizes countless reviews and press cuttings from various publications. The "show biz Bible", VARIETY, is often quoted, providing a time capsule effect to Bing's life and times. These reviews are, in essence, the history of show business for over half a century, further adding to the appeal of the book.

Indeed this is a book not only devoted (and casual) fans of Bing will treasure, but also those doing research on virtually any other performer of his era. Bing's path crossed with most of them, a fact proven by the extraordinarily detailed index.

Malcolm has also provided the reader with a "fact file", citing milestones of Bing's life. His forty top hit recordings, gold records, feature films, careers in radio and TV are all covered in a general manner. A discography is also provided, listing only the song titles and dates recorded, from 1926-77. Rejected and alternate takes have been omitted.

The only minor disappointment, and it entirely rests with the publisher, is the lack of illustrations to accompany the entries. As it stands, Scarecrow Press devoted a mere 16 pages out of over 800 total to photos. But don't let that deter you from purchasing this fabulous book.

To be sure, this is a book the whole family can enjoy. I, for one, found it amusing to look up milestone dates in members of my family's lives, to see what activities Bing was involved with on those days.

The book carries with it a rather hefty price tag, but make no fuss about it, you're getting a lot for your money.
