Save your money, 2003-11-18
Save your money. Nothing these books tell you (which you can get off the net) will save you money--and the information will get you into trouble besides.The real professionals don't need books. The rest of us need to invest our money wisely, and not send it to Adam Starchild.

For once, something that works, 2002-06-02
In many years of buying investment books, this was one of the few that gave me something I could really do, and that worked as it was supposed to.

It's rare to find a source of information that provides a historic and present-day world perspective.

Swiss Angels, 2000-11-22
Insurance and annuity contracts are not subject to Swiss withholding tax, unlike bank accounts and other Swiss fixed income instruments. Under certain conditions, they also enjoy tax deferred status for US residents and are exempt from US withholding taxes.

Solid currency with tax deferral for Americans & many others, 2000-10-14
One very important benefit of using an annuity for strategic financial planning is tax related. An annuity permits tax deferrals on the investor's savings which translates into assets growing faster than would be the case if another investment vehicle were to be used. As stated earlier, annuities are used for a variety of financial planning objectives, but they are most often thought of in terms of retirement planning.
