Offshore and Domestic Asset Protection Planning for Entrepreneurs and Investors
Asset Protection Strategies and Offshore Planning
Strangely enough, it seems that QE2 came and went with very little fanfare. Much like the Y2K fear, it seems to have been overblown in the markets with even treasury bonds showing slight gains.

This week I am going to keep this exceptionally short and sweet. I have been busy working on a new, but related business venture.

Over the past couple of years we keep hearing various media outlets and bloggers debate about whether or not America is on the path to socialism. Many people talk about the destruction of privacy from Bush’s Patriot Act, while others discuss the nationalization of the healthcare system from Obamacare.
